LYRICS

JULIAN
You were born in a palace by the sea

ANNELIESE
A palace by the sea

ERIKA
Could it be?

JULIAN
Yes, it’s so

JULIAN
You played harpsichord when you were only three

ERIKA
The harpsichord? Me?

ANNELIESE
A prodigy!

JULIAN
A princess pro!
You threw tantrums and terrorized the cook
Ha! How the palace shook

ANNELIESE
Charming child

JULIAN
Wrote the book
But you’d behave when your mother gave that look

ANNELIESE
Imagine how it was
A royal is recast

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
We’ve lots and lots to teach you and the time is going fast

JULIAN (spoken)
Let’s see you walk
Pinky Out
Regal bearing
(sung)
Now shoulders back and Lift the chin
And do not walk, but try to float

ERIKA
I feel a little foolish
Am I floating?

ANNELIESE
Like a sinking boat

JULIAN
You give a bow

ERIKA
What happens now?

JULIAN
Your hand receives a kiss

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
Most of all remember this

JULIAN
If I can learn to do it
You can learn to do it

ANNELIESE
Something in you knows it
ANNELIESE & JULIAN
There’s nothing to it

JULIAN
Follow in my footsteps
Shoe by shoe

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
You can learn to do it too

ANNELIESE
Now elbows in and sit up straight
And always know which spoon to use

ERIKA
If I don't know I just won’t choose

ANNELIESE
Then they'll say, “How can you refuse?”

JULIAN
The protocol

ANNELIESE
The royal ball

ERIKA
a bath and then goodnight?

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
Not until you get this right

JULIAN
If I can learn to do it

ANNELIESE
If he can learn to do it

JULIAN
You can learn to do it

ANNELIESE
You can learn to do it

JULIAN
Pull yourself together

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
And you’ll pull through it

JULIAN
Tell yourself it’s easy

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
And it’s true
You can learn to do it too

JULIAN
Now there’s your white cat, sera

ANNELIESE
Shes my kitten
you'll take care of

ERIKA
Oh!

JULIAN
You have your ladies maidens
Love their gossip


ANNELIESE
Got it, Erika

ERIKA
No.

JULIAN
Advisor preminger is pressed

ANNELIESE
Queen Genevieve

ERIKA
is always

ANNELIESE
stressed

JULIAN
Dog Midas

ANNELIESE
Is a fluffy brat

JULIAN
I hear he’s gotten very fat

ERIKA
I know he likes to chase to your cat

JULIAN
I don’t believe we told her that

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
If you can learn to do it

ERIKA
If I can learn to do it

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
He can learn to do it

ERIKA
You can learn to do it

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
Pull yourself together

ALL
And we’ll pull through it

JULIAN
Tell yourself it’s easy

ALL
And it’s true

ANNELIESE & JULIAN
You can learn to do it

ERIKA
Nothing to it

ALL
You can learn to do it

ERIKA
The harpsichord
The protocol
The royal ball
The fluffy brat
The maiden’s talk
The queen is stressed
And here a spoon
And there a cat
The King, his name is dominick
So tell me something new

JULIAN & ANNELIESE
Ha!

ERIKA
Ah!

ALL
You can learn to do it too
