Learn To Do It Lyrics
[VLADIMIR]
You were born in a palace by the sea.[ANASTASIA]
A palace by the sea?
Could it be?[VLADIMIR]
Yes, that's right.
You rode horseback when you were only three.[ANASTASIA]
Horseback riding? Me?[VLADIMIR]
And the horse...[DIMITRI]
He was white![VLADIMIR]
You made faces and terrorized the cook![DIMITRI]
Threw him in the brook![ANASTASIA]
Was I wild?[DIMITRI]
Wrote the book![VLADIMIR]
But you'd behave when your father gave that look![DIMITRI]
Imagine how it was![VLADIMIR]
Your long-forgotten past![VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
We've lots and lots to teach you and the time is gonig fast![ANASTASIA]
All right...I'm ready![VLADIMIR]
Now, shoulders back and stand up tall[DIMITRI]
And do not walk, but try to float.[ANASTASIA]
I feel a little foolish.
Am I floating?[VLADIMIR]
Like a little boat![DIMITRI]
You give a bow.[ANASTASIA]
What happens now?[VLADIMIR]
Your hand receives a kiss![VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
Most of all remember this:[VLADIMIR]
If I can learn to do it, you can learn to do it.[DIMITRI]
Something in you knows it --[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
There's nothing to it![VLADIMIR]
Follow in my footsteps, shoe by shoe![VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
You can learn to do it too![VLADIMIR]
Now, elbows in and sit up straight[DIMITRI]
And never slurp the stroganoff.[ANASTASIA]
I never cared for stroganoff![VLADIMIR]
She said that like a Romanov![DIMITRI]
The Samovar.[VLADIMIR]
The caviar.[ANASTASIA]
Dessert and then goodnight?[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
Not until you get this right![VLADIMIR]
If I can learn to do it[DIMITRI]
If he can learn to do it[VLADIMIR]
You can learn to do it![DIMITRI]
You can learn to do it[VLADIMIR]
Pull yourself together[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
And you'll pull through it![VLADIMIR]
Tell yourself it's easy[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
And it's true!
You can learn to do it too![VLADIMIR]
Next, you must memorize the names of the royalty.
Now here we have Kropotkin[DIMITRI]
Shot Potemkin[VLADIMIR]
In the Botkin.[ANASTASIA]
Oh![VLADIMIR]
And dear old uncle Vanya loved his vodka[DIMITRI
Got it Anya?[ANASTASIA]
No![VLADIMIR]
The Baron Pushkin[ANASTASIA
He was...?[DIMITRI]
Short![VLADIMIR]
Count Anatoly[ANASTASIA]
Had a... ?[DIMITRI]
Wart![VLADIMIR]
Count Sergei[DIMITRI]
Wore a feathered hat.[VLADIMIR]
I hear he's gotten very fat.[ANASTASIA]
And I recall his yellow cat![VLADIMIR]
I don't believe we told her that.[ANASTASIA]
If you can learn to do it,
I can learn to do it![VLADIMIR]
Don't know how you knew it[ANASTASIA]
I simply knew it!
Suddenly I feel like someone new...[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
Anya, you're a dream come true!If I can learn to do it,[ANASTASIA]
If I can learn to do it[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
You can learn to do it![ANASTASIA]
You can learn to do it.[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
Pull yourself together[ALL THREE]
And you'll pull through it![VLADIMIR]
Tell yourself it's easy,[ALL THREE]
And it's true --[VLADIMIR AND DIMITRI]
You can learn to do it,[ANASTASIA]
Nothing to it![ALL THREE]
You can learn to do it too!
