Anastasia - Learn to do it

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 going 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.
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!
