Little Mermaid Poor Unfortunate Souls Lyrics

Poor Unfortunate Souls Lyrics

[The only way to get what you want]

[Is to become a human yourself]



[Can you do that?]



[My dear sweet child]

[That's
what I do]

[It's what I live for]

[To help unfortunate merfolk,

But on the whole I've been a saint

To those poor unfortunate souls



[Have we got a deal?]



[If I become human]

[I'll
never be with my father or sisters again]



[But you'll have your
man]

[Life's full of tough choices, inn'nt it?]

[Oh, and there is
one more thing]

[We haven't discussed the subject of payment]



[But I don't have any..]



[I'm not asking much, just a token]

[Really, a trifle]

[What I want from you is, your voice]



[But without
