Jonathan Freeman - Humiliate the Boy - lyrics
{JAFAR}
Seize the good times
Too bad they never last
Especially for an urchin
With a questionable past
Oh yes, these were the good times
Hope you liked them, little friend
'Cause here is where the good times
Most decidedly must end
(spoken)
Iago?
{IAGO}
(spoken)
Sir?
{JAFAR}
Oh, it's a thrill
Oh, it's such fun
To see another fellow's dreams
Turn to nightmares, one by one
It's such a lark
It's such a joy
To roll our sleeves up and
Humiliate thе boy
Oh, it’s a kick
Oh, it’s a bash
When we removе the fancy turban
And the neatly trimmed mustache
And now let’s repossess the clothes
{IAGO}
D’ya think we ought to?
{JAFAR}
Why be coy?
C’mon, let’s do it
Let's humiliate the boy
{JAFAR (IAGO)}
Once he was proud (Once he was proud)
Once he was fine (Once he was fine)
The very model of Arabian design
But such as fate
{IAGO}
Too bad, tsk-tsk
{JAFAR}
I guess he’ll have to learn the hard way
{BOTH}
Rubbing lamps involve some risk
{JAFAR (IAGO)}
And it’s so rich (So rich!)
And it’s so rare (So rare!)
To take his shirt, his shoes, his jewelry
{IAGO}
And then we'll thin his hair
{JAFAR}
Oh, we’ll emasculate him slowly
{BOTH}
All the better to enjoy
How delicious, to
Humiliate the boy
{JAFAR}
What were the horses?
{GENIE}
They were roaches
{JAFAR}
And the camels?
{GENIE}
They were gnats
{JAFAR}
And the elephant?
{GENIE}
His monkey
And the rest of ‘em were rats
{JAFAR}
(spoken)
They were rodents?
{GENIE}
(spoken)
Yeah, diseased ones
{JAFAR}
(spoken)
Oh, how very, very sad
Change them back now! That’s an order!
Take everything you gave him
All the magic stuff away
Leave him dirty, poor, and penniless
{GENIE}
(spoken)
But, sir...
{JAFAR}
(spoken)
Do as I say!
(sung)
Now let it rain!
Now let it storm!
{IAGO}
Now send some flies into the picture
{JAFAR}
But how many?
{IAGO}
Oh, a swarm!
{JAFAR}
Now let ‘er rip
Don’t be repressed
Keep on destroying things
I’ve always felt it’s what you do the best
{BOTH}
Let him have it! Atta Genie!
Since you’re now in our employee
{JAFAR}
(spoken)
It’s your pleasure to ruin him!
{IAGO}
(spoken)
Wreck him!
{JAFAR}
(spoken)
"I want him neutralized!"
