lirik lagu queen latifah - poor unfortunate souls
[verse 1: ursula]
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”
[chorus]
poor unfortunate souls in pain, in need
this one longing to be thinner
this 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
[post-chorus]
now, it’s happened once or twice
someone couldn’t pay the price
and i’m afraid i had to rake them ‘cross the coals
yes, i’ve had the odd complaint
but on the whole i’ve been a saint
to those poor unfortunate souls
[proto-rap]
[ursula]
now, here’s the deal: if you dare
there’s a potion i’ll prepare
just consume and you’ll be human
three whole days up above
by the end of day 3
listen up this is key
just convince mr. prince
and get a kiss of true love
[ariel]
if i do?
[ursula]
lucky you
you stay human through and through
you can go, wed your beau
and be totally divine
[ariel]
and if not?
[ursula]
then guess what, girl?
you’ll turn back into a mer-girl
same as you once were, girl
but that tail will be mine!
don’t be shy, dear
what will it be?
you want the guy, dear?
leave it to me
[ariel]
but what about my father?
and my family?
[ursula]
hmm…
sorry, dear
there’s no way to spin it
life’s full of tough choices, innit?
one last thing, silly me
did i mention there’s a fee?
nothing choice, just your voice
no more talking, singing, zip
[ariel]
not a word?
[ursula]
not a note
not a whisper from your throat
[ariel]
but–
[ursula]
show some spine, you’ll be fine
honey, here’s a little tip:
you’ll have your looks!
your pretty face!
and don’t underestimate the importance of body language, ha!
[verse 3]
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 babble for?
[chorus]
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!
this poor unfortunate soul
beluga, sevruga
come winds of the caspian sea
larengix glaucitis
et max laryngitis
la voce to me
now, sing
[ariel]
aa-aa-aah, a-aa-aah
[ursula]
keep singing!
[ariel]
aa-aa-aah, a-aa-aah
