one day i'll be famous, i'll be proper and prim
go to saint james' so often, i will call it saint jim
one evening the king will say, eliza, 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!
