Frederick Loewe
The Night They Invented Champagne
(Verse)
[GIGI]
What time tomorrow will we get
Can I watch you play roulette?
May I stay up late for supper?
Is it awf'ly awf'ly upper?

[MAMITA]
Gigi, you'll drive us wild
Stop, you silly child

[GIGI]
Is everybody celebrated
Full of sin and dissipated?
Is it hot enough to blister?
Will I be your little sister?

[MAMITA]
Gigi, you are absurd
Now not another word
Gigi!

[GASTON]
Let her gush and jabber
Let her be enthused
I cannot remember
When I have been more amused
[MAMITA]
Stop it!

(Chorus)
[GIGI]
The night they invented champagne
It's plain as it can be
They thought of you and me
The night they invented champagne
They absolutely knew
That all we'd want to do is
Fly to the sky on champagne
And shout to everyone in sight
That since that world began
No woman or a man has ever been as happy as we are tonight!

[GASTON]
The night they invented champagne
It's plain as it can be
They thought of you and me
The night they invented champagne
They absolutely knew
That all we'd want to do is
Fly to the sky on champagne
And shout to everyone in sight
That since that world began
No woman or a man has ever been as happy as we are tonight!
