Lyrics

Coo-coo princess, look who's here
 Your resurrected Engineer
 Don't look surprised I tracked you down
 I have the sharpest nose in town
 I'm here to throw a rope before you drown
 For men, will always be men
 You change the regime
 The lust doesn't stop
 You and I will team up again
 Together we'll reap
 The cream of the crop
 Engineer, I don't want you here
 I gave up that life
 You must understand
 Just out there is a big shot who waits like a pup to come up and eat out of your hand
 Kim, the good times are back
 Don't go on, It's too late
 Not too late for my star!
 Please let me hide in peace
 Better to screw the police
 Hey, come in Monsieur Commissar
 ♪
 Three years I've been away
 I kept faith we would meet
 See, I found her for you
 You, out in the street
 I knew in time faith would weave a design
 Tying your life and mine into one
 Each day I'd wait
 Like a soldier must wait
 Trusting victory to come with the sun
 After the fight in the still of the night
 I would picture my bride, bright as jade
 You'll be my wife
 We will build a new life
 And fulfill the vow our fathers made
 My father's vow can't be honored this way
 And I pray in my heart he'll forgive
 What you want now are some words I can't say
 If I lied to you how could I live?
 Don't say anymore!
 Not a word!
 You will change
 You will learn
 Look at me
 Don't decide too soon
 Somewhere deep in my soul
 Shines the smallest of lights
 And no wind blows it out
 It burns steady and strong
 Through the darkest of nights
 Dju vui vay
 Yu doi my
 Dju vui vay
 Vao nyay moy
 I made a promise once with these words
 Which neither time nor distance has changed
 He will come to me, still
 You must be mad, your American Jack
 Has gone for good and he'll never come back
 He ran away, Kim, he left you to rot
 I'm sure by now he already forgot
 Come on now, princess, get off your cloud
 I'm sorry, sir, she was talking so loud
 The Commissar is a powerful man
 A girl with brains makes a life where she can
 Princess remember your place
 Don't make people lose face
 Why do you look away?
 I can end all this shame
 All you need say is, "yes"
 You hear those soldiers outside?
 They'll do whatever I say
 I cannot change what I feel! (Soldiers come!)
 I think you will change before my eyes
 This me-my has just been found
 She hid the day we closed the bars
 Show them that we don't forget
 No one betrays us without scars
 You are a woman who lived without shame
 You're an infection left over from war
 You have dishonored the national name
 Re-education will cure the disease
 You must be shown what we do to a leach
 See how we teach an American's whore
 I have heard hundreds of speeches like these
 Take it from me you don't want to hear more
 It's time to act
 My friends it's time
 Her face betrays her crime
 She must pay, and her partner too
 Get out!!
 I said get out!!
 Are you waiting for them to kill me?
 Did you not get what he said?
 There's a big screw loose inside you
 I will rip it out of your head
 There's a mad dog on the rampage
 Just appease him, everyone wins
 I don't give a shit if you love him
 Say "you do" and we'll leave with our skins
 I have a husband I love
 Real as the sun in the sky
 I cannot live with a lie
 Do you see now who has the power?
 Do you still think crazy things?
 Chris will come to me like the Phoenix
 And he'll take me off on his wings
 You're a traitor to your country
 If I am, then let it be
 I am talking of life or death now
 I am talking of staying free
 So there it is now, I'll be moving on
 If you don't need me, I'd rather be gone
 Two kids in love don't need strangers around
 You just get out!
 Right! I won't make a sound
 And as for you, come with me
 No!
 There is a secret
 That you don't know
 There is a force here
 I never show
 You say it's treason
 To keep my vow
 Season after season
 I survived somehow
 If you want the reason
 I will show you now
 Tam!
 Look, Thuy, this is my son
 He is all that I have
 Now you see why
 I must tell you "no"
