歌词

[00:00.72] The only way to get what you want...
[00:02.36] ...is to become a human yourself!
[00:05.24] (Gasps with excitement) Can you do that?
[00:07.97] My dear, sweet child,
[00:11.28] That's what I do...
[00:12.94] It's what I live for.
[00:14.82] To help unfortunate merfolk,
[00:17.77] Like yourself...
[00:19.58] Poor souls with no one else to turn to...
[00:26.00] (singing) I admit that in the past I've been a nasty
[00:29.20] They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
[00:32.59] But you'll find that nowadays
[00:34.29] I've mended all my ways
[00:36.20] Repented, seen the light and made a switch
[00:39.17] True?
[00:39.88] Yes!
[00:41.52] And I fortunately know a little magic
[00:45.20] It's a talent that I always have possessed
[00:48.30] And dear lady, please don't laugh
[00:49.99] I use it on behalf
[00:51.94] Of the miserable, the lonely and depressed
[00:55.34] (Pathetic)
[00:57.56] Poor unfortunate souls
[01:00.43] In pain
[01:02.10] In need
[01:03.68] This one longing to be thinner
[01:05.16] That one wants to get the girl
[01:07.90] And do I help them?
[01:08.30] Yes, indeed
[01:10.10] Those poor unfortunate souls
[01:12.81] So sad
[01:14.25] So true
[01:16.13] They come flocking to my cauldron
[01:17.57] Crying, "Spells, Ursula please!"
[01:19.46] And I help them?
[01:20.23] Yes, I do
[01:22.53] Now it's happened once or twice
[01:24.28] Someone couldn't pay the price
[01:26.36] And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
[01:31.35] Yes, I've had the odd complaint
[01:33.50] But on the whole I've been a saint...
[01:36.88] To those poor unfortunate souls
[01:45.68] Have we got a deal?
[01:47.58] If I become human...
[01:49.16] I'll never be with my father or sisters again.
[01:51.46] That's right
[01:52.65] But, you'll have, your man. (laughs slyly)
[01:56.44] Life's full of tough choices, i'nnit? (laughs slyly)
[02:02.18] Oh!
[02:03.38] And there is, one, more, thing!
[02:06.54] We haven't discussed the subject of payment.
[02:08.66] But I don't have any -
[02:09.53] I'm not asking much.
[02:11.23] Just a token, really!
[02:12.91] A trifle!
[02:13.75] What I want from you is . . .
[02:16.49] Your voice.
[02:18.16] But without my voice, how can I -
[02:20.26] You'll have your looks!
[02:22.54] Your pretty face!
[02:24.42] And don't underestimate
[02:26.23] The importance of ... body language!
[02:30.14] Ha!
[02:30.99] The men up there don't like a lot of blabber
[02:33.87] They think a girl who gossips is a bore
[02:36.62] Yes, on land it's much preferred
[02:38.50] For ladies not to say a word
[02:39.33] And after all, dear, what is idle prattle for?
[02:42.12] Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
[02:45.97] True gentlemen avoid it when they can
[02:48.72] But they dote and swoon and fawn
[02:50.31] On a lady who's withdrawn
[02:51.93] It's she who holds her tongue who gets her man
[02:54.40] Come on, you poor unfortunate soul
[02:58.36] Go ahead!
[02:59.75] Make your choice!
[03:01.45] I'm a very busy woman
[03:02.80] And I haven't got all day
[03:04.71] It won't cost much:
[03:06.45] Just your voice!
[03:07.66] You poor unfortunate soul!
[03:10.12] It's sad,
[03:11.25] But true!
[03:12.74] If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet
[03:14.46] You've got to pay the toll
[03:15.79] Take a gulp and take a breath
[03:16.99] And go ahead and sign the scroll!
[03:18.94] (Flotsam, Jetsam, now I've got her, boys)
[03:21.22] The boss is on a roll
[03:24.55] This poor unfortunate soul...
[03:36.25] Beluga sevruga
[03:37.91] Come winds of the Caspian Sea
[03:42.17] Larengix glaucitis
[03:43.44] Et max laryngitis
[03:45.21] La voce to me
[03:49.90] Now, sing!
[03:52.42] Aah...
[03:57.37] Keep singing!
