Disney`s Aladin One Jump Ahead Lyrics

One Jump Ahead Lyrics

Aladin 

 Gotta keep 

 One jump ahead of the breadline 

 One swing ahead of the sword 

 I steal only what I can't afford 

 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 

  

 Crowd 

 Riffraff! Street Rat! 

 Scoundrel! Take that! 

  

 Aladin 

 Just a little snacks, guys 

  

 Crowd 

 Rip him open, take it back, guys 

  

 Aladin 

 I can take a hint, gotta face the facts 

 You're my only friend, Abu! 

  

 Crowd 

 Who? 

  

 Ladies 

 Oh it's sad Aladdin's hit the bottom 

 He's become a one-man rise in crime 

 I'd blame parents except he hasn't got 'em 

  

 Aladin 

 Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat 

 Tell you all about it when I got the time 

  

 One jump ahead of the slowpokes 

 One skip ahead of my doom 

 Next time gonna use a nom de plume 

  

 One jump ahead of the hitmen 

 One hit ahead of the flock 

 I think I'll take a stroll around the block 

  

 Crowd 

 Stop, thief! Vandal! 

 Outrage! Scandal! 

  

 Aladdin 

 Let's not be too hasty 

  

 Lady 

 Still, I think he's rather tasty 

  

 Aladdin 

 Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat 

 Otherwise we'd get along 

  

 Crowd 

 Wrong! 

  

 Aladdin 

 One jump ahead of the hoofbeats 

  

 Crowd 

 Vandal! 

  

 Aladdin 

 One hop ahead of the hump 

  

 Crowd 

 Street rat! 

  

 Aladdin 

 One trick ahead of desaster 

  

 Crowd 

 Scoundrel! 

  

 Aladdin 

 There quick, but I'm much faster 

  

 Crowd 

 Take that! 

  

 Aladdin 

 Here goes, better throw my hand in 

  

 Wish me happy landin' 

 All I gotta do is jump
