Original Broadway Cast - The Last One You`d Expect

Look at him
No denying he's humble stuff
But it fills up this poor
old heart
When I see how well he's done
Look at him
All the loyalty he has shown
How my fondness for him has grown
Till he's almost like a son
Some might have thought
him unsuitable
How quickly he's earned my respect
Who would think that the D'Ysquith
We cast aside
Could become such a source
of pride
He's that last one you'd expect
Who'd believe that Monty Navarro
ever would come so far
so fast
Never seen a man so keen
to over come his past
Now he can live in princely
fashion
as the D'Ysquith name requires
He can pursue with
all his passion
everything he desires
I must go
Will I see you again
Well of course
Some might have thought
him unsuitable
They were of course incorrect
I always believed in Monty Navarro
even though in retrospect
Who would have guess whose bell
I'd ring this very afternoon
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Only just unpacked from my
protracted honeymoon
He's the last one you'd expect
Miss D'Ysquith pardon me
Mr Navarro is here to see you
Look at me
So completely in disarray
Barely able to face the day
Shall I say I'm in disposed
Look at me
I'm so terribly gray and grim
Yet I'm cheered
by the thought of him
Rather more then I'd supposed
Some might have thought
him unsuitable
But what was me to object
Who but he
Stood beside me to comfort me
Out of all of the family
He's the last one you'd expect
Look at him
look at him now
No denying his humble start
who would have guessed
But if fills up this
poor old heart
I am impressed
how he's progressed
When I see how well he's done
a wife omits her obligations
is allowed to have her fun
Look at him
look at him
All the loyalty he has shown
look what he's shown
How my fondness
for him has grown
how my fondness has grown
Till he's almost like a son
aaaaaaAAAAAaaaaa
Some might have thought
him unsuitable
But if they took a pause
to reflect
They would seize
On his matchless ability
He's the best of the brink oh
He's the last one you'd expect
Only two people left still alive
who stand between
the Eldum and me
Only two who survive
who are still above me
on the D'Ysquith family tree
Is the next one my employer
Asquith D'ysquith
But he has treated me so well
How ungrateful
to remove him
after all his kindness
oh what hell
But remember he was hateful
Asquith D'Ysquith
was the cause of mothers grief
He denied her
Vilified her
Took away her birth right
like a thief
On the other hand
Has he not been rather decent
Making me successor
Must admit I hate to do it
I've grown rather fond of him
And Pardon me Mr Navarro
It is my sad duty
to report that Lord
Asquith D'Ysquith
has gone to his great reward
OH NO what's happened
Heart attack
At least he did not suffer sir
Only one person left still alive
that stands between the
Eldum and me
Only one ONLY ONE Only One
who stands between
the Eldum and he
Only one ONLY ONE Only One
Only one above me on the tree
Look at him
look at him
Thanks to him I have been reveled
By his much true in fortitude
He's the last one you'd except
After the tragic demise
of Lady Salom I
the sudden death of Lord
Asquith D'Ysquith brings to
seven the number of heirs
to the D'Ysquith fortune
who have died since last year
Hmm
How very lucky for Monty Navarro
How astounding
How Peculiar
It's astounding and peculiar
Yes how utterly peculiar
Monty Navarro
how have you come so very far
Monty Navarro
earnest and circumspect
Monty Navarro
no one knows who you really are
Who would ever suspect
Monty Navarro
Monty Navarro
MONTY NAVARRO
I am the next Earl of High Herst
and the last one you'd expect
