2:25:00
Mrs. Pearce, you're a woman.
2:25:03
## Why can't a woman be more like a man? #
2:25:07
# Men are so decent
Such regular chaps #

2:25:10
# Ready to help you
Through any mishaps #

2:25:13
# Ready to buck you up
Whenever you are glum #

2:25:16
# Why can't a woman be a chum? #
2:25:20
# Why is thinking
Something women never do? #

2:25:23
# And why is logic never even tried? #
2:25:26
# Straightening up their hair
Is all they ever do #

2:25:29
# Why don't they straighten up
The mess that's inside? #

2:25:32
# Why can't a woman behave like a man? #
2:25:36
# If I was a woman
Who'd been to a ball #

2:25:39
# Been hailed as a princess
By one and by all #

2:25:42
# Would I start weeping
Like a bathtub overflowing? #

2:25:45
# Or carry on as if my home were in a tree? #
2:25:48
# Would I run off
And never tell me where I'm going? #

2:25:51
# Why can't a woman be like me? ##
2:25:58
You mean that after you'd done
this wonderful thing for them...

2:26:01
...without making a mistake...
2:26:02
...they just sat there
and never said a word?

2:26:04
Never petted you, or admired you,
or told you how splendid you'd been?

2:26:08
Not a word.
2:26:09
They just congratulated each other
on how marvelous they'd been.

2:26:12
The next moment, how glad they were
it was all over...

2:26:14
...and what a bore it had all been.
2:26:16
This is appalling. I should not
have thrown my slippers at him.

2:26:19
I should have thrown the fire irons.
2:26:22
Who's that?
2:26:23
Henry. I knew it wouldn't be too long.
2:26:27
Now, remember...
2:26:29
...you not only danced with a prince
last night, you behaved like a princess.

2:26:40
Mother, the most confounded thing...
Do you...

2:26:46
You!
2:26:47
Good afternoon, Professor Higgins.
Are you quite well?

2:26:52
Of course you are. You are never ill.
Would you care for some tea?

2:26:57
Don't you dare try that game on me.
I taught it to you.

2:26:59
Get up, come home and stop being a fool.
