Anything You Can Do (From Annie Get Your Gun)

Anything you can do
I can do better
I can do anything
Better than you
No, you can’t
Yes, I can.
No, you can’t
Yes, I can.
No, you can’t
Yes, I can
Yes, I can!
Anything you can be
I can be greater
Sooner or later
I’m greater than you
No, you’re not.
Yes, I am
No, you’re not.
Yes, I am
No, you’re NOT!
Yes, I am
Yes, I am!
I can shoot a partridge
With a single cartridge
I can get a sparrow
With a bow and arrow
I can live on bread and cheese
And only on that?
Yes
So can a rat!
Any note you can reach
I can go higher
I can sing anything
Higher than you
No, you can’t.
(High)
Yes, I can.
(Higher) No, you can’t.
(Higher)
Yes, I can.
(Higher) No, you can’t.
(Higher)
Yes, I can.
(Higher) No, you can’t.
(Higher)
Yes, I can.
(Higher) No, you can’t.
(Higher)
Yes, I CAN!
(Highest)
Anything you can buy
I can buy cheaper
I can buy anything
Cheaper than you
Fifty cents?
Forty cents!
Thirty cents?
Twenty cents!
No, you can’t!
Yes, I can
Yes, I can!
Anything you can say
I can say softer
I can say anything
Softer than you
No, you can’t.
(Softly)
Yes, I can.
(Softer) No, you can’t.
(Softer)
Yes, I can.
(Softer) No, you can’t.
(Softer)
Yes, I can.
(Softer)
YES, I CAN!
(Full volume)
I can drink my liquor
Faster than a flicker
I can drink it quicker
And get even sicker!
I can open any safe
Without bein' caught?
Sure
That’s what I thought--
You crook!
Any note you can hold
I can hold longer
I can hold any note
Longer than you
No, you can’t
Yes, I can No, you can’t
Yes, I can No, you can’t
Yes, I can
Yes, I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I No, you C-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-N'T--
CA-A-A-A-N!
(Cough, cough!)
Yes, you ca-a-a-an!
Anything you can wear
I can wear better
In what you wear
I’d look better than you
In my coat?
In your vest!
In my shoes?
In your hat!
No, you can’t!
Yes, I can
Yes, I CAN!
Anything you say
I can say faster
I can say anything
Faster than you
No, you can’t.

I can jump a hurdle
I can wear a girdle
I can knit a sweater
I can fill it better!
I can do most anything!
Can you bake a pie?
No
Neither can I
Anything you can sing
I can sing sweeter
I can sing anything
Sweeter than you
No, you can’t.
(Sweetly)
Yes, I can.
(Sweeter) No, you can’t.
(Sweeter)
