My dear, sweet child--it's what I live for: to help unfortunate merfolk like yourself. |
| [00:09.80] |
Poor souls with no one else to turn to. . . |
| [00:13.80] |
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty |
| [00:17.14] |
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch |
| [00:20.65] |
But you'll find that nowadays |
| [00:22.19] |
I've mended all my ways |
| [00:23.90] |
Repented, seen the light, and made a switch |
| [00:26.73] |
True? Yes. |
| [00:29.17] |
And I fortunately know a little magic |
| [00:32.60] |
It's a talent that I always have possessed |
| [00:35.94] |
And here lately, please don't laugh |
| [00:37.69] |
I use it on behalf |
| [00:39.48] |
Of the miserable, the lonely, and depressed |
| [00:42.16] |
(Pathetic!) |
| [00:44.54] |
Poor unfortunate souls |
| [00:47.60] |
In pain, in need |
| [00:50.77] |
This one longing to be thinner |
| [00:52.62] |
That one wants to get the girl |
| [00:54.29] |
And do I help them? |
| [00:55.23] |
Yes, indeed! |
| [00:57.67] |
Those poor unfortunate souls |
| [01:00.78] |
So sad, so true |
| [01:04.14] |
They come flocking to my cauldron |
| [01:05.90] |
Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!" |
| [01:07.44] |
And I help them |
| [01:09.00] |
Yes I do! |
| [01:10.93] |
Now, it's happened once or twice |
| [01:12.40] |
Someone couldn't pay the price |
| [01:14.13] |
And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals |
| [01:18.57] |
Yes, I've had the odd complaint |
| [01:20.53] |
But on the whole I've been a saint |
| [01:23.53] |
To those poor unfortunate souls |
| [01:28.80] |
Here's my best offer, babykins. I know a spell that will turn you into a human for three days. Now, it's got a procedural clause, sort of a "squid pro quo." Before the sun sets on the third day, you've got to get dear ol' princey to kiss you. If you do, you'll stay human forever. |
| [01:48.23] |
And if I don't? |
| [01:49.16] |
Nothing drastic, darling, I'm sure. . . Oh, look--small print: "Your soul is mine forever, and you're doomed to spend eternity in my watery, hell-soaked lair." Lawyers! Don't you just love 'em? Of course, there is one more thing. . . my fee. |
| [02:07.58] |
But I don't have anything! |
| [02:08.95] |
I'm not askin' for much, Only. . . your voice. |
| [02:13.91] |
My voice? But if I give away my voice, how can I ever-- |
| [02:18.24] |
You'll have your looks. . . your pretty face. . . and don't underestimate the power of body language! |
| [02:28.88] |
The men up there don't like a lot of blabber |
| [02:32.11] |
They think a girl who gossips is a bore! |
| [02:35.15] |
Yet on land it's much preferred for ladies not to say a word |
| [02:37.92] |
And after all, dear, what is idle prattle for? |
| [02:40.80] |
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation |
| [02:44.31] |
True gentlemen avoid it when they can |
| [02:47.36] |
But they dote and swoon and fawn |
| [02:49.21] |
On a lady who's withdrawn |
| [02:50.68] |
It's she who holds her tongue who gets a man |
| [02:53.81] |
Come on you poor unfortunate soul |
| [02:58.78] |
Go ahead! |
| [03:00.56] |
Make your choice! |
| [03:02.47] |
I'm a very busy woman |
| [03:03.90] |
And I haven't got all day |
| [03:05.69] |
It won't cost much |
| [03:06.84] |
Just your voice! |
| [03:09.30] |
You poor unfortunate soul |
| [03:11.80] |
It's sad, but true |
| [03:15.10] |
If you want to cross the bridge, my sweet |
| [03:17.10] |
You've got the pay the toll |
| [03:18.31] |
Take a gulp and take a breath |
| [03:19.66] |
Go ahead and sign the scroll! |
| [03:21.51] |
Flotsam, Jetsam--now I've got her, boys |
| [03:23.83] |
The boss is on a roll |
| [03:27.48] |
You poor unfortunate soul! |
| [03:46.60] |
Beluga, sevruga, come winds of the Caspian Sea. . . |
| [03:54.71] |
Larynxes, glaucitis, ad max laryngitis, la voce to me! |
| [04:03.59] |
Now, sing! Sing your voice over to me! |
| [04:06.48] |
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah... |
| [04:15.58] |
Sing and keep singing! |
| [04:20.24] |
. . .ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah... |
| [04:28.86] |
Now swim, swim, swim! Swim for your life, human child! |
| [04:36.72] |
Ha ha ha. . . |
