[Anya:]
How do you become the person you've forgotten you ever were?
[Vladimir:]
Take a deep breath. Close your eyes, and imagine another time, another world
You were born in a palace by the sea
[Dimitry:]
A palace by the sea
[Anya:]
Could it be?
[Vladimir:]
Yes, it's so
You rode horseback when you were only three
[Anya:]
Horseback riding? Me?
[Dimitry:]
Horse's name?
[Vladimir:]
Romeo
You threw tantrums and terrorized the cook!
Ha! How the palace shook!
[Dimitry:]
Charming child
[Vladimir:]
Wrote the book
But you'd behave when you father gave that look
[Dimitry:]
Imagine how it was
Your long forgotten past
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
We've lots and lots to teach you and the time is going fast
[Vladimir:]
Let's see you walk. Head up! Regal bearing!
Now, shoulders back and stand up tall
And do not walk, but try to float
[Anya:]
I feel a little foolish
Am I floating?
[Dimitry:]
Like a sinking boat!
[Vladimir:]
You give a bow
[Anya:]
What happens now?
[Vladimir:]
Your hand receives a kiss!
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
Most of all remember this:
[Vladimir:]
If I can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
[Dimitry:]
Something in you knows it
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
There's nothing to it!
[Vladimir:]
Follow in my footsteps
Shoe by shoe!
[Vladimir & Dmitry:]
You can learn to do it too!
[Dimitry:]
Now, elbows in and sit up straight
And do not slurp the stroganoff
[Anya:]
I never cared for stroganoff!
[Vladimir:]
She said that like a Romanov!
[Dimitry:]
The Samovar
[Vladimir:]
The caviar
[Anya:]
Dessert and then goodnight?
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
Not until you get this right!
[Vladimir:]
If I can learn to do it
[Dimitry:]
If he can learn to do it
[Vladimir:]
You can learn to do it!
[Dimitry:]
You can learn to do it
[Vladimir:]
Pull yourself together
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
And you'll pull through it!
[Vladimir:]
Tell yourself it's easy
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
And it's true!
You can learn to do it, too!
[Vladimir:]
Who is your great-grandmother?
[Anya:]
Queen Victoria
[Vladimir:]
Great-great grandmother?
[Anya:]
Uh... Princess Victoria of Saxe-Colburg-Saalfeld
[Vladimir:]
Your best friend is?
[Anya:]
My little brother, Alexei
[Dimitry:]
Wrong! Your best friend?
[Anya:]
I know who my best friend is!
[Dimitry:]
What a temper!
[Anya:]
I don't like being contradicted!
[Dimitry:]
That makes two of us!
[Vladimir:]
Continuing on...
[Anya:]
I've had it, and I hate you both
I'm sorry that we ever met
I'm hungry, I'm frightened
And I'm only human, don't forget!
I don't remember anything
Get out and let me be!
[Vladimir:]
Anya, darling, look at me
We're all frightened
Well, slightly, now and then
Shall we start again?
Take a breath, count to ten
You have courage
And strength you barely know
So blow that little nose
And dry those pretty eyes
A princess like your majesty
Can do this if she tries!
Ready?
[Dimitry:]
Set
[Anya:]
Go
[Vladimir:]
Now here's your great Aunt Olga
[Dimitry:]
How she frolicked on the Volga
[Anya:]
Oh!
[Vladimir:]
Your distant cousin Vanya loved his vodka
[Dimitry:]
Got it, Anya?
[Anya:]
No!
[Vladimir:]
The Duke of Oldenburgh was short!
[Dimitry:]
Louise of Boden
[Anya:]
Had a...
[Dimitry:]
Wart!
[Vladimir:]
Count Sergei
[Dimitry:]
Wore a feathered hat
[Vladimir:]
I hear he's gotten very fat
[Anya:]
And I recall his yellow cat!
[Vladimir:]
I don't believe we told her that
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
If you can learn to do it
[Anya:]
I can learn to do it!
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
He can learn to do it
[Anya:]
You can learn to do it!
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
Pull yourself together
[Anya, Vladimir & Dimitry:]
And we'll pull through it!
[Vladimir:]
Tell yourself it's easy
[Anya, Vladimir & Dimitry:]
And it's true
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
You can learn to do it
[Anya:]
Nothing to it!
[Anya, Vladimir & Dimitry:]
You can learn to do it
[Anya:]
The caviar, the stroganoff, the Samovar, the feathered hat, the cousin drank, the duke was short, here a wart and there a cat. The horse's name was Romeo, so tell me something new
[Vladimir & Dimitry:]
Ha!
[Anya, Vladimir & Dimitry:]
You can learn to do it, too!
