Aladdin Medley
by Anthem Lights

Album: Magical Medleys

Arabian Nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways

Gotta keep
One jump, ahead of the bread line
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford
(And that's everything!)

One jump ahead of the lawmen
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke

Riffraff
Street Rat
I don't buy that

If only they'd look closer
Would they see a poor boy
No siree
They'd find out

You ain't never had a friend like me

Well, Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherazade had a thousand tales
But master you're in luck, 'cause up your sleeves
You've got a brand of magic never fails

You've got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzaz, yahoo and how
See, all you gotta do is rub that lamp, and I'll say:
"Mr. Aladdin, sir, what will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order, jot it down?"

You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never
(Never!)
Had a
(Had a!)
Friend like Prince Ali, handsome is he, Ali Ababwa
(There's no question this Ali's alluring - never ordinary never boring)
That physique! How can I speak? Weak at the knee...
(Everything about the man just plain impresses...)
Well get on out in that square
(He's a winner - he's a whiz - a wonder!)
Adjust your veil and prepare
(He's about to pull my heart asunder)
To gawk and grovel and stare at Prince Ali!

Now I'm in a whole new world
Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world
(Don't you dare close your eyes)
A hundred thousand things to see
(Hold your breath it gets better)
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back
To where I used to be

A whole new world
(Every turn a surprise)
With new horizons to pursue
(Every moment gets better)
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
