I Think I'm Gonna Like It Here Lyrics

GRACE
Cecile will pick out all your clothes

CECILE
(spoken)
Blue is your best color, no red I think.
GRACE
Your bath is drawn by Mrs. Greer.

MRS. GREER
(spoken)
Salts?...No, bubbles, I think.

GRACE
Annette comes in to make your bed.

ANNETTE
(spoken)
The silk? No the satin sheets, I think.

ANNIE
I think I'm gonna like it here!

GRACE
The swimming pool is to the left

ANNIE
(spoken)
Inside the house? Oh boy!
GRACE
The tennis court is in the rear

ANNIE
(spoken)
I never even picked up a racket.
GRACE
Have an instructor here at noon
(spoken)
Oh, and get that Don Budge fellow if he's available.

ANNIE
I think I'm gonna like it here.

GRACE
When you wake ring for Drake
Drake will bring your tray
When you're through Mrs.Pugh
Comes and takes it away.

GRACE AND SERVANTS
No need to pick up any toys

ANNIE
(spoken)
That's okay, I haven't got any anyway.

GRACE
No finger will you lift my dear
ALL
We have but one request
Please put us to the test
ANNIE
I know I'm gonna like it here
Used to room in a tomb
Where I'd sit and freeze
Get me now, holy cow
Could someone pinch me please!

GRACE
(spoken)
She didn't mean it.
(Singing)
We've never had a little girl

ALL
We've never had a little girl

GRACE AND SERVANTS
We hope you understand
Your wish is our command

(Said together)
ANNIE
I know I'm gonna like it here
SERVANTS AND GRACE
We know you're gonna like it here
ALL
Welcome
