? No. 7 America
?ROSALIA
Puerto Rico...
You lovely island...
Island of tropical breezes.
Always the pineapples growing,
Always the coffee blossoms blowing...
?ANITA (mockingly)
Puerto Rico...
You ugly island...
Island of tropic diseases.
Always the hurricande blowing,
Always the population growing...
And the money owing,
And the babies crying,
And the bullets flying.
I like the island Mangattan -
Smoke on your pipe and put that in!

Everything free in America
For a small fee in America!

Comfort is yours in America!
Knobs on the doors in America,
Wall-to-wall floors in America!
(They dance.)
?ROSALIA
When I will go back to San Juan -
?ANITA
When you will shut up and get gone!

Ev'ryone there will have moved here!
