Anastasia (Original Broadway Cast Recording) - Learn To Do It Lyrics
Official





How do you become the person you've forgotten you ever were?
Take a deep breath
Close your eyes, and imagine another time, another world
You were born in a palace by the sea
A palace by the sea

Could it be?
Yes, it's so

You rode horseback when you were only three
Horseback riding? Me?

Horse's name?
Romeo

You threw tantrums and terrorized the cook
Ha, how the palace shook
Charming child
Wrote the book

But you'd behave when you father gave that look
Imagine how it was
Your long forgotten past
We've lots and lots to teach you and the time is going fast

Let's see you walk, head up, regal bearing

Now, shoulders back and stand up tall
And do not walk, but try to float

I feel a little foolish
Am I floating?

Like a sinking boat

You give a bow
What happens now?
Your hand receives a kiss

Most of all remember this

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

Something in you knows it

There's nothing to it

Follow in my footsteps
Shoe by shoe

You can learn to do it too

Now, elbows in and sit up straight
And do not slurp the stroganoff

I never cared for stroganoff
She said that like a Romanov
The Samovar The caviar
Dessert and then goodnight?
Not until you get this right

If I can learn to do it (if he can learn to do it)
You can learn to do it (you can learn to do it)
Pull yourself together
And you'll pull through it

Tell yourself it's easy
And it's true
You can learn to do it, too

Who is your great-grandmother?
Queen Victoria Great-great grandmother?
Uh Princess Victoria of Saxe-Colburg-Saalfeld

Your best friend is?
My little brother, Alexei

Wrong Your best friend?

I know who my best friend is
What a temper
I don't like being contradicted
That makes two of us

Continuing on

I've had it, and I hate you both
I'm sorry that we ever met
I'm hungry, I'm frightened
And I'm only human, don't forget
I don't remember anything
Get out and let me be

Anya, darling, look at me
We're all frightened
Well, slightly, now and then
Shall we start again?
Take a breath, count to ten
You have courage
And strength you barely know
So blow that little nose
And dry those pretty eyes
A princess like your majesty
Can do this if she tries
Ready?

Set, go

Now here's your great Aunt Olga
How she frolicked on the Volga

Oh, your distant cousin Vanya loved his vodka

Got it, Anya? (no)

The Duke of Oldenburgh was short
Louise of Boden (had a Wart)

Count Sergei (Wore a feathered hat)
I hear he's gotten very fat

And I recall his yellow cat
I don't believe we told her that

If you can learn to do it (I can learn to do it)
He can learn to do it (you can learn to do it)

Pull yourself together
And we'll pull through it

Tell yourself it's easy
And it's true
You can learn to do it

Nothing to it

You can learn to do it

The caviar, the stroganoff, the Samovar, the feathered hat, the cousin drank
The duke was short, here a wart and there a cat
The horse's name was Romeo so tell me something new
Ha
You can learn to do it, too
