(Fred Ebb / John Kander)

The best of everything
That's what I wish you all
The best of everything
A Rembrandt on your wall

A yacht that wins you cups
Skateboards with style and speed
Show dogs or loving pups
The pride of the pound or the pedigreed

I hope you win that prize
Pass that blue ribbon test
I hope your good keeps getting better
Till your better's best

With every wine you taste
With every song you sing
By now you may have guessed
I hope you get the best of everything

The best of everything
That is what I wish for you
The best of everything
A Rembrandt hanging on the wall

(Orchestral Interlude)

I hope you win that prize
Pass that blue ribbon test
I hope your good keeps getting better
Till your better's best

With every wine you taste
With every song you sing
By now you may have guessed
I hope you get the best of everything
