"Anything You Can Do (I Can Do Better)" is a show tune composed by Irving Berlin for the 1946 Broadway musical Annie Get Your Gun. The song is a duet, with one male singer and one female singer attempting to outdo each other in increasingly complex tasks.
In the musical, the song sets the scene for the climactic sharpshooting contest between Annie Oakley and Frank Butler. Its most memorable lines are, "Anything you can do, I can do better; I can do anything better than you." The song was first performed in Annie Get Your Gun by Ethel Merman and Ray Middleton.
During the song, they argue playfully about who can, for example, sing softer, sing higher, sing sweeter, and hold a note for longer, and boast of their abilities and accomplishments, such as opening safes and living on bread and cheese, although Annie almost always seems to counter Frank's argument. Neither can "bake a pie," though.

Couple o' Lil' Can Suggestions?
So, I am looking for a very short and compact 5.56㎜ silencer for a new Armalite-type rifle, that should be here on 30ᵺ. Already have a can for that caliber, but it is presently wed to a CAR-15-ish SBR, and think will leave there. I'd like to keep this one abbreviated as the rifle it would go...- Discussion Thread
