Lyrics for Poor Unfortunate Souls by Disney:
| | | Artist: | Disney |
| | Album: | The Little Mermaid | | Track: | Poor Unfortunate Souls | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 91 | | | | Lyrics: | [Ursula:] The only way to get what you want is to become
a human
yourself.
[Ariel:] Can you do that?
[Ursula:] My dear, sweet child. That's what I do -
it's
what I live for. To help unfortunate merfolk -
like yourself -
poor souls with no one else to
turn to.
I admit that in the past I've
been a nasty
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
But you'll find that
nowadays
I've mended all my ways
Repented, seen the light and made a switch
True?
Yes
And I fortunately know a little magic
It's a talent that I always have
possessed
And here lately, please don't laugh
I use it on behalf
Of the miserable,
lonely and depressed
(Pathetic)
Poor unfortunate souls
In pain
In
need
This one longing to be thinner
That one wants to get the girl
And do I help
them?
Yes, indeed
Those poor unfortunate souls
So sad
So true
They come
flocking to my cauldron
Crying, "Spells, Ursula please!"
And I help them?
Yes, I
do
Now it's happened once or twice
Someone couldn't pay the price
And I'm
afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
Yes, I've had the odd complaint
But on the whole
I've been a saint
To those poor unfortunate souls
[Ursula:] Have we got a
deal?
[Ariel:] If I become human, I'll never be with my father
or sisters
again.
[Ursula:] But you'll have your man. Life's full of tough
choices,
innit? Oh - and there is one more thing.
We haven't discussed the subject of
payment.
[Ariel:] But I don't have any -
[Ursula:] I'm not asking much. Just a token,
really, a
trifle. What I want from you is . . . your voice.
[Ariel:] But
without my voice, how can I -
[Ursula:] You'll have your looks! Your pretty face! And
don't
underestimate the importance of body language! Ha!
The men up there
don't like a lot of blabber
They think a girl who gossips is a bore
Yes, on land it's much
preferred
For ladies not to say a word
And after all, dear, what is idle prattle
for?
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
True gentlemen avoid
it when they can
But they dote and swoon and fawn
On a lady who's withdrawn
It's she
who holds her tongue who gets her man
Come on, you poor unfortunate soul
Go
ahead!
Make your choice!
I'm a very busy woman
And I haven't got all day
It
won't cost much
Just your voice!
You poor unfortunate soul
It's sad
But
true
If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet
You've got to pay the toll
Take a gulp
and take a breath
And go ahead and sign the scroll!
Flotsam, Jetsam, now I've got her,
boys
The boss is on a roll
