[00:00:00] Written by：Poor Unfortunate Souls

[00:00:00] My dear sweet child it's what I live for

[00:00:05] To help unfortunate merfolk like yourself

[00:00:08] Poor souls with no one else to turn to

[00:00:13] I admit that in the past I've been a nasty

[00:00:17] They weren't kidding when they called me well a witch

[00:00:20] But you'll find that nowadays

[00:00:22] I've mended all my ways

[00:00:24] Repented seen the light and made a switch

[00:00:27] True yes

[00:00:29] And I fortunately know a little magic

[00:00:32] It's a talent that I always have posessed

[00:00:36] And here lately please don't laugh

[00:00:38] I use it on behalf

[00:00:39] Of the miserable lonely and depressed

[00:00:42] Pathetic

[00:00:44] Poor unfortunate souls

[00:00:47] In pain in need

[00:00:51] This one longing to be thinner

[00:00:52] That one wants to get the girl

[00:00:54] And do I help them

[00:00:56] Yes indeed

[00:00:57] Those poor unfortunate souls

[00:01:01] So sad so true

[00:01:04] They come flocking to my cauldron crying

[00:01:06] Spells Ursula please

[00:01:07] And I help them yes I do

[00:01:11] Now it's happened once or twice

[00:01:12] Someone couldn't pay the price

[00:01:14] And I'm afraid I had to rake'em'cross the coals

[00:01:18] Yes I've had the odd complaint

[00:01:20] But on the whole I've been a saint

[00:01:23] To those poor unfortunate souls

[00:01:27] Here's my best offer babykins

[00:01:30] I know a spell that will turn you into a human for three days

[00:01:35] Now it's got a procedural clause sort of a squid pro quo

[00:01:39] Before the sun sets on the third day

[00:01:41] You've got to get dear ol' princey to kiss you

[00:01:44] If you do you'll stay human forever

[00:01:48] And if I don't

[00:01:49] Nothing drastic darling I'm sure oh

[00:01:51] Look small print your soul is mine forever

[00:01:55] And you're doomed to spend eternity in my watery

[00:01:57] Hell soaked lair

[00:01:58] Lawyers don't you just love'em of course

[00:02:03] There is one more thing my fee

[00:02:07] But I don't have anything

[00:02:08] I'm not askin' for much only your voice

[00:02:14] My voice but if I give away my voice how can I ever

[00:02:18] You'll have your looks your pretty face

[00:02:22] And don't underestimate the power of body language

[00:02:29] The men up there don't like a lot of blabber

[00:02:32] They think a girl that gossips is a bore

[00:02:35] Yes on land it's much preferred for ladies not to say a word

[00:02:38] And after all dear what is idle prattle for

[00:02:40] Come on

[00:02:41] They're not all that impressed with coversation

[00:02:44] True gentlemen avoid it when they can

[00:02:47] But they don't and swoon and fawn

[00:02:49] On a lady who's withdrawn

[00:02:51] It's she who haunts a town who gets a man

[00:02:53] Come on you poor unfortunate soul

[00:02:59] Go ahead

[00:03:00] Make your choice

[00:03:02] I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day

[00:03:05] It won't cost much

[00:03:07] Just your voice

[00:03:08] You poor unfortunate soul

[00:03:12] It's sad but true

[00:03:15] If you wanna cross a bridge my sweet you gotta pay the toll

[00:03:18] Take a gulp and take a breath

[00:03:20] Go ahead and sign the scroll

[00:03:21] Flotsam jetsam now I got her boys

[00:03:23] The boss is on a roll

[00:03:27] You poor unfortunate soul

[00:03:46] Beluga sevruga come winds of the caspian sea

[00:03:55] Larynxes glaucitis ad max laryngitis la voce to me

[00:04:03] Now sing sing your voice over to me

[00:04:06] Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

[00:04:15] Sing and keep singing

[00:04:18] Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

[00:04:28] Now swim swim swim swim for your life human child

[00:04:36] Ha ha ha
