Buenos Aires Lyrics
[HARMONY]
What's new, Buenos Aires?
I'm new! I wanna say
I'm just a little stuck on you
You'll be on me too
[HARMONY (with THE UNITARDS)]
(I get out here,) Buenos Aires
[HARMONY with THE UNITARDS]
Stand back!
You oughta know what you're gonna get in me
[HARMONY]
Just a little touch of star quality
Fill me up with your heat
With your noise, with your dirt
Overdo me!
Let me dance to your beat
Make it loud, let it hurt
Run it through me
Don't hold back
You are certain to impress
Tell the driver this is where I'm staying
What's new, Buenos Aires?
I'm new! I wanna say
I'm just a little stuck on you
You'll be on me too
[HARMONY (with THE UNITARDS)]
(I get out here,) Buenos Aires
[HARMONY with THE UNITARDS]
Stand back!
You oughta know what you're gonna get in me
[HARMONY]
Just a little touch of star quality
Fill me up with your heat
With your noise, with your dirt
Overdo me!
Let me dance to your beat
Make it loud, let it hurt
Run it through me
Don't hold back
You are certain to impress
Tell the driver this is where I'm staying
[HARMONY (with THE UNITARDS)]
(Hello) Buenos Aires!
Get this! Just look at me
Dressed up, somewhere to go
[HARMONY]
We'll put on a show!
Take me in at your flood
Give me speed, give me lights
Set me humming!
Shoot me up with your blood
Wine me up with your nights
Watch me coming!
All I want is a whole lot of excess
Tell the singer this is where I'm playing
[HARMONY with THE UNITARDS]
Stand back, Buenos Aires!
Because you oughta know what you're gonna get in me
Just a little touch of star quality
[HARMONY]
And if ever I go too far
It's because of the things you are
Beautiful town, I love you
And if I need a moment's rest
Give your lover the very best
Real eiderdown and silence
(Hello) Buenos Aires!
Get this! Just look at me
Dressed up, somewhere to go

And if I need a moment's rest
Give your lover the very best

[HARMONY with THE UNITARDS]
You're a tramp, you're a treat, you will shine to the death
[HARMONY]
You are shoddy!
[HARMONY with THE UNITARDS]
But you're flesh, you are meat, you shall have every breath
[HARMONY]
In my body!
Put me down for a lifetime of success
Give me credit; I'll find ways of paying
[HARMONY with THE UNITARDS]
Río de la Plata!
Florida! Corrientes! Nueve de Julio!
[HARMONY]
All I want to know
Param, param, param, param, param
Param, param, param, param, param
Param, param, param, param, param
Param, param, param, param, param
