lyrics

HOSTESS
Ah, here you are at last, Nepommuck. Have you found out all about the Doolittle lady?

NEPOMMUCK
I have found out all about her. She is a fraud.

HOSTESS
A fraud! Oh, no.

NEPOMMUCK
YES, yes. She cannot deceive me. Her name cannot be Doolittle.

HIGGINS
Why?

NEPOMMUCK
Because Doolittle is an English name. And she is not English.

HOSTESS
Oh, nonsense! She speaks English perfectly.

NEPOMMUCK
Too perfectly. Can you show me any English woman who speaks English as it should be spoken? Only foreigners who have been taught to speak it speak it well.

HOSTESS
Certainly she terrified me by the way she said How d‘ye do.

(Lyrics: George Bernard Shaw, Pygmalion and my fair lady, adaptation by A.J. Lerner, 1980.)
