You Did It

[Pickering]
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.

[Henry] It was nothing
Really nothing.

[Pickering] All alone you hurdled
Every obstacle in sight.

[Henry] 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.

[Henry]
Shortly after we came in I saw at once we'd easily win
And after that I found it deadly dull.

[Pickering]
You should have heard the ooh's and ah's
Every one wondering who she was.

[Henry]
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!

[Henry]
Thank Heavens for Zoltan Karparthy
If it hadn't been for him I would have died of boredom.

[Mrs Pearce]
Karparthy? That dreadful Hungarian?
Was he there?

[Henry]
YesHe was there all right
And up to his old tricks
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"

Every time we looked around
There he was that hairy hound From Budapest
Never leaving us alone Never have I ever known
A ruder pest
Finally 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 every pore
He oiled his way around the floor
Every 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!

[Mrs Pearce] No!

[Henry]
Ja vol!
"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't
And although she may have studied with an expert
Dilectician and grammarian
I can tell that she was born Hungarian!
Not only Hungarian but of royal blood
she is a princess!"

"Her blood" he said "is bluer than the ______ or ever was
Royalty is absolutely written on her face
She thought that I was taken in but actually I never was
How could she deceive another member of her race?"

"I know each language on the map" said he "and she's Hungarian as the first Hungarian ______"
