Aah, salam and good day to you.
Do you want to hear the story of Aladdin and his lamp?
A desert tale of a young boy, the princess he loves,
And the genie that makes all his wishes come true.
Oh I come from a land, from a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where it's flat and immense
And the heat is intense
It's barbaric, but hey, it's home
When the winds from the east
And the suns from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down
Stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabiaan niiiiight
Arabian niiiiiights
Like Arabian daaaaaays
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good waaaays
Arabian niiiiiights
'Neath Arabian mooooooons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the duuuuunes
Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the breadline
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't affooord
(But That's Everything!)
One jump ahead of the lawman
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm brooooke
(That boy is such a lousy)
Riffraff! Street rat! Scoundrel! Take that!
Just a little snack, guuuys
Lets rip him open, take it back, guys
Gotta steal to eat, Gotta eat to live,
Otherwise we'd get alooong
Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherezade had a thousand tales
But master you're in luck 'cause up your sleeves
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how
Well all you gotta do is rub that lamp
And I'll say
Miiister Aladdin, sir
What will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order
Jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like me
Miiister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or threee
I'm on the job, you big nabob
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) frieend
Never had a friend like meee, oh my!
No not a frieend liiiiike meeeeee,
Noooooowwww, Make waaaay for Prince Aliiiiii
Say hey!
Here he comes!
Ring bells! Bang the drums!
Are you gonna love this guy!
Prince Ali! Fabulous he!
Ali Ababwaa
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on one kneee! (get on one knee)
Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your sunday salaam
Then come and meet his spectacular corterieeeeee
(Don't wait come seee)
Prince Ali!
Amorous he! Ali Ababwa
Heard your princess was a sight lovely to seeee (a sight to see)
And that, good people, is whyyy, he got dolled up and dropped by
With sixty elephants, llamas galore
With his bears and lions
A brass band and more
With his forty fakirs, his cooks, his bakers
His birds that warble on key
Make waaaaay for priiince Aliiiiiii!
(Make way for prince Aliiiiii)
I can show you the wooorld
Shining, shimmering, spleendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart deciide?
I can open your eeeyes
Take you wonder by wooonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet riide
A whole new wooooorld
A new fantastic pooint of view

Or say we're only dreamiiing

A dazzling place I never kneew
But when I'm way up heere
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you

'Neath Arabian moooooons
