ELIZA
Just you wait 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
You'll be sorry, but your tears'll be too late!
You'll be broke and I'll have money;
Will I help you? Don't be funny!
Just you wait, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
Just you wait 'enry 'iggins, till you're sick,
And you screams to fetch a doctor double quick!
I'll be off a second later,
And go straight to the the-atre!
Ah-ha-ha, 'enry 'iggins,
Just you wait!
Oooooh, 'enry 'iggins!
Just you wait until we're swimmin' in the sea!
Oooooh, 'enry 'iggins!
And you get a cramp a little ways from me!
When you yell you're gonna drown,
I'll get dressed and go to town!
Oh-ho-ho, 'enry 'iggins,
Oh-ho-ho, 'enry 'iggins,
Just you wait!
One day I'll be famous!
I'll be proper and prim!
Go to Saint James so often I will call it Saint Jim.
One evening the King will say,
"Oh Liza, old thing,
I want all of England your praises to sing."
KING
"Next week, on the twentieth of May,
I proclaim Liza Doolittle Day!
All the people will celebrate the glory of you,
And whatever you wish and want
I gladly will do."
ELIZA
"Thanks a lot, King," says I, in a manner wellbred;
"But all I want is 'enry 'iggins 'ead!"
KING
"Done,"
ELIZA
says the King, with a stroke.
KING
"Guards, run and bring in the bloke!"
ELIZA
Then they'll march you, 'enry 'iggins, to the wall;
And the king will tell me:
KING
"Liza, sound the call."
ELIZA
As they raise their rifles higher,
I'll shout: "Ready! Aim! Fire!"
Oh-ho-ho, 'enry 'iggins,
Down you'll go! 'enry 'iggins! |
