The Night They Invented Champagne (from "Gigi")

The Night They Invented Champagne - Hermione Gingold/Leslie Caron/Louis Jourdan

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

Gigi you'll drive us wild

Stop

You silly child

Is everybody celebrated

Full of sin and dissipated

Is it hot enough to blister

Will I be your little sister

Gigi you are absurd

Now not another word

Let her gush and jabber

Let her be enthused

I cannot remember

When I have been more amused

Stop it

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

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
