| lyric | Poor Professor Higgins!
Poor Professor Higgins!
Night and day
He slaves away!
Oh, poor Professor Higgins!
All day long
On his feet;
Up and down until he's numb;
Doesn't rest;
Doesn't eat;
Doesn't touch a crumb!
Poor Professor Higgins!
Poor Professor Higgins!
On he plods
Against all odds;
Oh, poor Professor Higgins!
Nine p.m.
Ten p.m.
On through midnight ev'ry night.
One a.m.
Two a.m.
Three...!
Quit, Professor Higgins!
Quit, Professor Higgins!
Hear our plea
Or payday we
Will quit, Professor Higgins!
Ay not I,
O not Ow,
Pounding pounding in our brain.
Ay not I,
O not Ow,
Don't say ""Rine,"" say ""Rain""...
Eliza
The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain!
Henry
By George, she's got it!
By George, she's got it!
Now, once again where does it rain?
Eliza
On the plain! On the plain!
Henry
And where's that soggy plain?
Eliza
In Spain! In Spain!
The three
The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain!
The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain!
Henry
In Hartford, Hereford, and Hampshire...?
Eliza
Hurricanes hardly happen.
How kind of you to let me come!
Henry
Now once again, where does it rain?
Eliza
On the plain! On the plain!
Henry
And where's that blasted plain?
Eliza
In Spain! In Spain!
The three
The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain!
The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain! |
