Lyrics Irving Berlin

Irving Berlin

ANYTHING YOU CAN DO

Anything you can do I can do better

I can do anything better than you

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Anything you can be I can be greater

Sooner or later I'm greater than you

No, you're not

Yes, I am

No, you're not

Yes, I am

No, you're not

Yes, I am, yes I am

I can shoot a partridge with a single cartridge

I can get a sparrow with a bow and arrow

I can live on bread and cheese

And only on that?

Yes

So can a rat

Any note you can reach I can go higher

I can sing anything higher than you

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

Anything you can buy I can buy cheaper

I can buy anything cheaper than you

Fifty cents

Forty cents

Thirty cents

Twenty cents

No, you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Anything you can say I can say softer

I can say anything softer than you

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

I can drink my liquor faster than a flicker

I can do it quicker and get even sicker

I can open any safe

Without being caught?

Sure

That's what I thought (you crook!)

Any note you can hold I can hold longer

I can hold any note longer than you

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

No, you can't -- Yes, you can!

Anything you can wear I can wear better

In what you wear I'd look better than you

In my coat

In your vest

In my shoes

In your hat

No, you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Anything you can say I can say faster

I can say anything faster than you

Noyoucan't

YesIcan

Noyoucan't

YesIcan

Noyoucan't

YesIcan

Noyoucan't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

I can jump a hurdle

I can wear a girdle

I can knit a sweater

I can fill it better

I can do most anything

Can you bake a pie?

No

Neither can I

Anything you can sing I can sing sweeter

I can sing anything sweeter than you

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Oh, yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

No, you can't, can't, can't

Yes, I can, can, can, can

No, you can't

Yes, I can

I'm superior, you're inferior

I'm the big attraction, you're the small

I'm the major one, you're the minor one

I can beat you shootin', that's not all

Anything you can sing, I can sing louder

I can sing anything louder than you

No you can't

Yes I can

No you can't

Yes I can

No you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Anything you can buy, I can buy cheaper

I can buy anything cheaper than you

Fifty cents

Forty cents

Thirty cents

Twenty cents

No you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

I could be a racer, quite a steeplechaser

I can jump a hurdle even in my girdle

I can open any safe

Without being caught?

Yes

That's what I thought

Anything you can dig, I can dig deeper

I can dig anything deeper than you

Thirty feet

Forty feet

Fifty feet

Sixty feet

No you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Anyone you can lick, I can lick faster

I can lick anyone faster than you

With your fist

With my feet

With your feet

With an axe

No you can't

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Any school where you went I could be master

I could be master much faster than you

Can you spell?

No I can't

Can you add?

No I can't

Can you teach?

Yes, I can! Yes, I can!
