Getting to Know You

It's a very ancient saying

But a true and honest thought

That if you become a teacher

By your pupils you'll be taught

(sung)

As a teacher I've been learning—

You'll forgive me if I boast—

And I've now become an expert

On the subject I like most

(spoken)

Getting to know you!

(sung)

Getting to know you, getting to know all about you

Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me

Getting to know you, putting it my way

But nicely

You are precisely

My cup of tea

Getting to know you

Getting to feel free and easy

When I am with you

Getting to know what to say

Haven't you noticed

Suddenly I'm bright and breezy?

Because of all the beautiful and new

Things I'm learning about you

Day by day

Getting to know you, getting to know all about you

Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me

Getting to know you, putting it my way

But nicely

You are precisely

My cup of tea

Children

Getting to know you

Getting to feel free and easy

When I am with you

Getting to know what to say

Haven't you noticed

Suddenly I'm bright and breezy?

Because of all the beautiful and new

Things I'm learning about you

Day by day

Getting to know you

Getting to feel free and easy

When I am with you

Getting to know what to say

Haven't you noticed

Suddenly I'm bright and breezy?

Because of all the beautiful and new

Things I'm learning about you

Day by day
