| Just you wait, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
|
| You’ll be sorry, but your tears’ll be to 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, till 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!
|
| Ooooooh 'enry 'iggins!
|
| Just you wait until we’re swimmin' in the sea!
|
| Ooooooh 'enry 'iggins!
|
| And you get a cramp a little ways from me!
|
| When you yell you’re going to 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 lift their rifles higher, I’ll shout:
|
| «Ready! |
| Aim! |
| Fire!»
|
| Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins,
|
| Down you’ll go, 'enry 'iggins!
|
| Just you wait! |
