The Heat Is On in Saigon Lyrics by Miss Saigon West End Revival Cast

Miss Saigon: The Definitive Live Recording (West End Revival)

2014

[AMERICANS]
The heat is on in Saigon
The girls are ready to screw
One of these slits here will be Miss Saigon
And since we're stuck here in hell
What's a soldier to do?
The stink is making me choke
Turns out this war is a joke
Turns out the joke is on you
[ENGINEER]
Hey, Monsieur Chris, Monsieur John
You've come to win Miss Saigon?
[JOHN]
I gotta get my friend laid as a last souvenir
[CHRIS]
I love you, pal, but your bullshit I've had up to here
[ENGINEER & JOHN, spoken]
It's about time you get laid (Whatever, man)
[CHRIS, JOHN & ENGINEER]
The heat is on in Saigon
[JOHN]
But till they tell us we're gone
I'm gonna buy you a girl
[CHRIS]
You can buy me a beer
[ENGINEER, spoken]
It's showtime!
From Haiphong to the Mekong Delta
May I present the most beautiful girls in Saigon
Mimi
[MIMI]
See my bikini, it's just the right size
[ENGINEER, spoken]
Yvette
[YVETTE]
Don't you enjoy how it rides up my thighs?
[ENGINEER, spoken]
Dominique
[DOMINIQUE]
Look from behind, it will knock out your eyes
[ENGINEER, spoken]
Yvonne
[YVONNE]
I'll show you my special trophy of war
[ENGINEER, spoken]
Oh, she will
Fifi
[FIFI]
For a Marine, I'll show more
[AMERICANS]
You won't get up off the floor
The heat is on in Saigon
Don't tell me I'm reassigned
All that chickenshit sucks
Tonight I'm out of my mind
Not to mention ten bucks
[ENGINEER, spoken]
Oh, you all know her as
The Sex Toy from Hanoi
Miss Gigi Von Tranh
[GIGI]
If I'm your pin-up, I'll melt all your brass
Stuck on your wall with a pin in my ass
If you get me, you will travel first class
I'll show you, we will make magic, cheri
[ENGINEER]
You buy more tickets from me
The winner gets her for free
[CHRIS]
The meat is cheap in Saigon
I used to love getting stoned
Waking up with some whore
I don't know why I went dead
It's not fun anymore
[ENGINEER, spoken]
How about something fresh from the country?
Untouched, legs unparted, parts uncharted
Kim
[KIM]
I'm seventeen and I'm new here today
The village I come from seems so far away
All of these girls here know much more what to say
But I know I'm so much more than you see
A million dreams are in me
[CHRIS]
Good Jesus, John, who is she?
[AMERICANS]
The Cong is tight'ning the noose
Is it a week or a day or an hour we got?
Tonight could be our last shot
Got to put it to use
[AMERICANS & GIRLS]
I got a fever babe and you're gonna catch it
I got an itch and baby you'd better scratch it
[AMERICANS]
Mimi, Gigi, Yvette or Yvonne
Gotta buy me a beer
Here's to you, Miss Saigon
[ENGINEER, spoken]
Yvonne, Yvette, Fifi, Mimi, Kim, Gigi
Attention, s'il vous plait, by popular demand
Miss Gigi Van Tranh is tonight's Miss Saigon!
[AMERICANS]
The heat is on in Saigon
How we get used to the smell
So let's get wasted, get high and get laid
A goodbye party in hell!
[ENGINEER, spoken]
And now who wins my little pussycat?
Number sixty-six!
[MARINE, spoken]
Who takes care of you, baby?
[GIGI, spoken]
You do, but will you take me to America?
[MARINE, spoken]
Oh, come on, not right now
[GIGI, spoken]
Hey, I'll make a good wife
[MARINE, spoken]
I said no!
[GIGI, spoken]
You prick!
[ENGINEER, spoken]
No, no, no, no
I'll, I'll take care of this
[GIGI, spoken]
It's bullshit!
[MARINE, spoken]
Don't fuck with me!
[ENGINEER, spoken]
It's okay, Gigi
He likes it rough, you know that
Come on, drink some more, play with your girls
