| Fathoms Below I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho Look out, lad, a mermaid be waiting for you In mysterious fathoms below Fathoms below, below From whence wayward westerlies blow Where Triton is king and his merpeople sing In mysterious fathoms below Heave-ho, heave-ho Heave-ho, heave-ho, heave-ho In mysterious fathoms below Part of Your World [Maybe he's right] [Maybe there is something the matter with me] [I just don't see how a world] [That makes such wonderful things] [Could be bad] Look at this stuff, isn't it neat? Wouldn't you think my collection's complete? Wouldn't you think I'm the girl The girl who has everything? Look at this trove, treasures untold How many wonders can one cavern hold? Looking around here, you'd think Sure, she's got everything I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty I've got who's-its and what's-its galore You want thing-a-mabobs? I've got twenty But who cares? No big deal. I want more I wanna be where the people are I wanna see, wanna see 'em dancin' walkin' around on those Whaddya call 'em? Oh, feet Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far Legs are required for jumpin', dancin' Strollin' along down the What's that word again? Street Up where they walk Up where they run Up where they stay all day in the sun Wanderin' free, wish I could be Part of that world What would I give if I could live Outta these waters? What would I pay to spend a day Warm on the sand? Betcha on land they understand Bet they don't reprimand their daughters Bright young women, sick of swimmin' Ready to stand And ready to know what the people know Ask 'em my questions and get some answers What's a fire, and why does it What's the word? Burn When's it my turn? Wouldn't I love? Love to explore that shore up above Out of the sea, wish I could be Part of that world Part of Your World (Reprise) What would I give to live where you are? What would I pay to stay here beside you? What would I do to see you smiling at me? Where would we walk? Where would we run? If we could stay all day in the sunJust you and me, and I could be Part of your world I don't know when, I don't know how But I know something's starting right now Watch and you'll see, Someday I'll be Part of your world Poor Unfortunate Souls 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 And I fortunately know a little magic It's a talent that I always have possesed 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 want 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 The men up there don't like a lot of blabber They thing 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 This poor unfortunate soul Beluga, sevruga, come winds Of the Caspian Sea Larynxes, glacydis, ad max Laryngitis la voce to me [Now sing. Keep singing!] Happy Ending Now we can walk Now we can run Now we can stay All day in the sun Just you and me And I can be Part of your world Fathoms Below (Deleted Lyrics) Heave-ho, heave-ho I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho Brave sailor beware, for a big 'un's a-brewin' Mysterious fathoms below Heave-ho, heave-ho I'll sing you a song of the king of the sea And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho The ruler of all of the ocean is he In mysterious fathoms below Fathoms below, below From whence wayward westerlies blow Where Triton is king and his merpeople sing In mysterious fathoms below Heave-ho, heave-ho I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho Look out, lad, a mermaid be waiting for you In mysterious fathoms below The king of the ocean is angry So trouble's a-brewin' out there I'm tellin' you, lad, then King Triton is mad How the waves'll buck, rock to and fro Hold on, good luck, as down you go For Triton is king of the bottomless blue And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho Beware of the magic his merpeople do In mysterious fathoms below Heave-ho, heave-ho Part of Your World (Reprise) (Deleted Lyrics) What would I give to live where you are? What would I pay to stay here beside you? What would I do to see you smiling at me? Now there's a dream Now there's a goal Now there's a need I'll never control I won't get free Till I can be Part of your world What would I give if I could live outta these waters? What would I pay to spend a day holding your hand? I'd give my life I'd sell my soul 'Cause I can feel I'll never be whole But I can see I'll never be Part of your world |
