I Have Always Been A Woman / Just Leave Everything To Me.

I have always been a woman who arranges things, for the pleasure--and the profit--it derives. I have always been a woman who arranges things, like furniture and daffodils and lives.

If you want your sister courted, brother wed, or cheese imported:
Just leave everything to me!
If you want your roof inspected, eyebrows tweezed, or bills collected:
Just leave everything to me!
If you want your daughter dated, or some marriage consummated, for a rather modest fee.
If you want a husband spotted, boyfriend traced, or chicken potted:
I'll arrange for making all arrangements.
Just leave everything to me!


Mr. Jones (spoken)
Business trip or pleasure Dolly?


Dolly (spoken)
Mr. Jones with me, business is always a pleasure.


Mr. Jones (spoken)
And you have more businesses than a dog has fleas.


Dolly (spoken)
Well, as my late husband Mr. Ephrim Levi used to say, if you have to live hand to mouth you better be ambidextrous.

Dolly (sung)
If you want your ego bolstered, muscles toned, or chair upholstered:
Just leave everything to me!
Charming social introductions, expert mandolin instructions:
Just leave everything to me!
If you want your culture rounded, French improved, or torso pounded:
With a ten year guarantee.
If you want a birth recorded, collies bred, or kittens boarded:
I'll proceed to plan the whole procedure.
Just leave everything to me!


Mr. Sullivan (spoken)
Where to, Dolly?


Dolly (spoken)
Yonkers, New York, to handle a highly personal matter for Mr. Horace Vandergelder, the well-known, unmarried, half-a-millionaire.


Mr. Sullivan (spoken)
Gonna marry him yourself, Dolly?


Dolly (spoken)
Why, Mr. Sullivan, whatever put such a preposterous idea into my head--your head!

Dolly (sung)
If you want a law abolished, jury swayed, or toenails polished:
Just leave everything to me!
If you want your liver tested, glasses made, cash invested:
Just leave everything to me!
If you want your children coddled, corsets pulled, or furs remodeled, or some nice, fresh fricassee.
If you want your bustle shifted, wedding planned, or bosom lifted----

Dolly (spoken)
Don't be ashamed girls, Life is full of secrets, and I keep 'em!

Dolly (sung)
I'll discretely use my own discretion…
I'll arrange for making all arrangements…
I'll proceed to plan the whole procedure…
Just leave everything to me!

The natural condition of the theatre business is one of insurmountable obstacles on the road to imminent disaster. However, as strange and unbelievable as it sounds, it always turns out well. No one knows why this is. It’s a mystery.
