LYRICS BY HOWARD ASHMAN
MUSIC BY ALAN MENKEN
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -5 5 4
I ad-mit that in the past I’ve been a nas-ty.
4 4 -4 5 5 5 4 -5 5
They were-n’t kid-ding when they called me
-4 4 -4
well, a witch
4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
But you’ll find that now-a-days
4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
I’ve men-ded all my ways
4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
Re-pen-ted, seen the light, and made a switch,
(SPOKEN) True? Yes.
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -2 2 4 -4
And I for-tu-nate-ly know a lit-tle of mag-ic.
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
It’s a tal-ent that I al-ways have pos-sessed.
4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
And here late-ly please don’t laugh
4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
I use it on be-half
4 4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
of the mis-er-a-ble lone-ly and de-pressed
5 -6 -6
pa-thet-ic,
(CHORUS)
4 -3 -4 4 -3 4
Poor Un-for-tu-nate Souls,
5 -3 5 -3
In pain in need.
5 5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 5
This one long-ing to be thin-ner
5 5 -5 -5 -5 5 5
That one wants to get the girl.
5 5 5 -6 -6 7 -6 -6
And do I help them? Yes in-deed.
5 7 -6 -7 7 -6 7
Those Poor Un-for-tu-nate Souls,
5 -3 5 -3
So sad so true.
VERSE 2
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5
They come flock-ing to my caul-dron
5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 7
Cry-ing “Spells, Ur-su-la, please!”
-6 -6 -6 -6 5 2 -3
And I help them? Yes, I do.
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5
Now it’s hap-pened once or twice,
-5 -5 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Some-one could-n’t pay the price,
-3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 3
And I’m a-fraid I had to rake ’em
-3 -3 4
Cross the coals.
(SPOKEN)
Yes, I’ve had the odd com-plaint.
-3 -3 4 4 -4 4 4 5
But on the whole I’ve been a saint,
-3b -3 4 -3 -4 4 -3 -3
To those Poor Un-for-tu-nate Souls.
(SPOKEN)
You’ll have your looks.
Your pretty face.
And don’t underestimate the importance of body
language! Hah!
VERSE 3
4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -5 5 4
The men up there don’t like a lot of blab-ber.
5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
They think a girl who gos-sips is a bore.
4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
Yes, on land it’s much pre-fered
4 4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4
for la-dies not to say a word.
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
And af-ter all dear what is i-dle prat-tle for?
5 5 5 5 5 -5
Come on! They’re not all that
5 -4 -4 5 4 -4 4
im-pressed with con-ver-sa-tion.
-4 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 -4 -4
True gen-tle-men a-void it when they can.
4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
But they dote and swoon and fawn
4 4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4
On a la-dy who’s with-drawn.
4 4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5
It’s she who holds her tongue who gets her man.
5 -3 -3 4 -3 -4 4 -3 4
Come on you poor un-for-tu-nate soul!
5 5 -3 5 5 -3
Go a-head! Make your choice.
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5
I’m a ver-y bus-y wom-an
5 5 -3 -3 -3 -3 2
and I have-n’t got all day.
-3 -3 -3 -3 4 -3 -3
It won’t cost much, just your voice.
5 4 -3 -4 4 -3 4
You poor un-for-tu-nate soul.
5 -3 5 -3
Its sad, but true.
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 5
If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet
5 -3 -3 -3 -3 2
you’ve got to pay the toll
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5
Take a gulp and take a breath
5 5 5 -6 -6 -6 -6 5
and go a-head and sign the scroll
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 5 5
(Flot-sam Jet-sam, now I’ve got her boys,
5 -6 -6 -6 -6 7 (hold it)
the boss is on a roll!)
-6 7 7 -7 8 8 8 (Hold it)
This poor un-for-tu-nate soul!
