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!
