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...

Dmitri: He was white!

Vladimir: You made faces and terrorized the cook!

Dmitri: Threw him in the brook!

Anastasia: Was I wild?

Dmitri: Wrote the book!

Vladimir: But you'd behave when your father gave that look!

Dmitri: Imagine how it was!

Vladimir: Your long-forgotten past!

Vladimir and Dmitri: 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

Dmitri: And do not walk, but try to float.

Anastasia: I feel a little foolish.

Am I floating?

Vladimir: Like a little boat!

Dmitri: You give a bow.

Anastasia: What happens now?

Vladimir: Your hand receives a kiss!

Vladimir and Dmitri: Most of all remember this:

Vladimir: If I can learn to do it, you can learn to do it.

Dmitri: Something in you knows it --

Vladimir and Dmitri: There's nothing to it!

Vladimir: Follow in my footsteps, shoe by shoe!

Vladimir and Dmitri: You can learn to do it too!

Vladimir: Now, elbows in and sit up straight

Dmitri: And never slurp the stroganoff.

Anastasia: I never cared for stroganoff!

Vladimir: She said that like a Romanov!

Dmitri: The Samovar.

Vladimir: The caviar.

Anastasia: Dessert and then goodnight?

Vladimir and Dmitri: Not until you get this right!

Vladimir: If I can learn to do it

Dmitri: If he can learn to do it

Vladimir: You can learn to do it!

Dmitri: You can learn to do it

Vladimir: Pull yourself together

Vladimir and Dmitri: And you'll pull through it!

Vladimir: Tell yourself it's easy

Vladimir and Dmitri: 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

Dmitri: Shot Potemkin

Vladimir: In the Botkin.

Anastasia: Oh!

Vladimir: And dear old uncle Vanya loved his vodka

Dmitri: Got it Anya?

Anastasia: No!

Vladimir: The Baron Pushkin

Anastasia: He was...?

Dmitri: Short!

Vladimir: Count Anatoly

Anastasia: Had a... ?

Dmitri: Wart!

Vladimir: Count Sergei

Dmitri: 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 Dmitri: Anya, you're a dream come true!
If I can learn to do it,
Anastasia: If I can learn to do it

Vladimir and Dmitri: You can learn to do it!

Anastasia: You can learn to do it.

Vladimir and Dmitri: Pull yourself together

All: And you'll pull through it!

Vladimir: Tell yourself it's easy,

All: And it's true --

Vladimir and Dmitri: You can learn to do it,

Anastasia: Nothing to it!

All: You can learn to do it too!
