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!
