You Did It - Voice

Tonight old man you did it, you did it, you did it
You said that you'd do it and indeed you did
I thought that you'd rue it
I doubted you'd do it
But now I must admit that succeed you did
You should get a medal
Or be even made a knight

Oh it was nothing, really nothing!

All alone you hurdled every obstacle in sight

Now wait, now wait, give credit where it's due
A lot of the glory goes to you

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've aged a year tonight
At times I thought I'd die of fright
Never was there a momentary lull

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

You should've heard the "oohs" and "aahs"
Everyone wondering who she was

You'd think they had never seen a lady before

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

Thank goodness for Zoltan Carpathy
If it hadn't been for him I would've died of boredom
Carpathy? that dreadful Hungarian was he there?
Yes he was there all right and up to his old tricks

That blaggard 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 Dolittle 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

No!
Jawohl!

Her English is too good, he said
That clearly indiates that she is foreign
For as others are instructed in their native language
English people aren't

And although she may have studied
With an expert dialectician 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 Danube is 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 rhapsody

Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

Congratulations Professor Higgins
For your glorious victory
Congratulations Professor Higgins
You'll be mentioned in history

Congratulations Professor Higgins (This evening sir, you did it)
For your glorious victory (You said that you'd do it and indeed you did)
Congratulations Professor Higgins (This evening sir, you did it)
Sing hail and hallelujah (We know that we have said it but you did it)
Ev'ry bit of credit for it all (And the credit for it all)
Belongs to you! (Belongs to you!)
