The Night They Invented the Champagne (From "Gigi") - Leslie Caron, Maurice Chevalier

Gigi: What time tomorrow will we get there?

Can I watch you play roulette?

May I stay up late for supper?

Is it awfully awfully 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!

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 the world began

no woman or a man

has ever been as happy as we are tonight!

G & G: 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 (pop)

That since the world began

no woman or a man

has ever been as happy as we are tonight!
