Lyrics

[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, 'til you're sick And you scream to fetch a doctor double-quick I'll be off a second later and go straight to the the-ater Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait Ooh, 'enry 'iggins Just you wait until we're swimmin' in the sea Ooh, '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 St. James so often I will call it St. Jim One evening the king will say, "Oh, Liza, old thing I want all of England your praises to sing 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" "Thanks a lot, King" says I, in a manner well-bred But all I want is 'enry 'iggins 'ead" "Done," says the King with a stroke "Guard, run and bring in the bloke" Then they'll march you, 'enry 'iggins to the wall And the King will tell me "Liza, sound the call" As they raise their rifles higher I'll shout, "Ready, aim, fire" Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins Down you'll go, 'enry 'iggins Just you wait
