You did itPickering:
Tonight, old man, you did it!
You did it! You did it!
You said that you would do it,
And indeed you did.
I thought that you would rue it;
I doubted you'd do it.
But now I must admit it
That succeed you did.
You should get a medal
Or be even made a knight.
Higgins:
It was nothing. Really nothing.
Pickering: All alone you hurdled
Ev'ry obstacle in sight.
Higgins:
Now, wait! Now, wait!
Give credit where it's due.
A lot of the glory goes to you.
Pickering: But you're the one who did it,
Who did it, who did it!
As sturdy as Gibraltar,
Not a second did you falter.
There's no doubt about it,
You did it!
I must have aged a year tonight.
At times I thought I'd die of fright.
Never was there a momentary lull.
Higgins:
Shortly after we came in
I saw at once we'd eas'ly win;
And after that I found it deadly dull.
Pickering: You should have heard the ooh's and ah's;
Ev'ry one wond'ring who she was
Higgins:
You'd think they'd never seen a lady before.
Pickering: And when the Prince of Transylvania
Asked to meet her,
And gave his arm to lead her to the floor. . .!
I said to him: You did it!
You did it! You did it!
They thought she was ecstatic
And so damned aristocratic,
And they never knew
That you
Did it!
Higgins:
Thank Heavens for Zoltan Karparthy. If he hadn't been there I'd have died of boredom. Yes, he was there, all right, up to his old tricks.
Servant:
Karparthy? That dreadful Hungarian? Was he there?
Higgins:
Yes, that blackguard who uses the science of speech
More to blackmail and swindle than teach;
He made it the devilish business of his
"To find out who this Miss Doolittle is."
Ev'ry time we looked around
There he was, that hairy hound
From Budapest.
Never leaving us alone,
Never have I ever known
A ruder pest.
Fin'lly I decided it was foolish
Not to let him have his chance with her.
So I stepped aside and let him dance with her.
Oozing charm from ev'ry pore,
He oiled his way around the floor.
Ev'ry trick that he could play,
He used to strip her mask away.
And when at last the dance was done
He glowed as if he knew he'd won!
And with a voice too eager,
And a smile too broad,
He announced to the hostess
That she was a fraud!
Servant: No!
Higgins:
Yavol!
Her English is too good, he said,
That clearly indicates that she is foreign.
Whereas others are instructed in their native language
English people aren.
And although she may have studied with an expert
Di'lectician and grammarian,
I can tell that she was born Hungarian!
Not only Hungarian, but of royal blood, she is a princess!
Servants:
Congratulations, Professor Higgins,
For your glorious victory!
Congratulations, Professor Higgins!
You'll be mentioned in history!
This evening, sir, you did it!
Congratulations,
You did it! You did it!
Professor Higgins!
You said that you would do it!
For your glorious
And indeed you did.
Victory!
This evening, sir, you did it!
Congratulations,
You did it! You did it!
Professor Higgins!
We know that we have said it,
Sing a hail and halleluia
But - you did it and the credit
Ev'ry bit of credit
For it all belongs to you!
