MARCHERS: Make way for Prince Ali!
SWORDSMEN: Say hey! It's Prince Ali!
MAJOR:
Hey, clear the way in the old bazaar,
Hey you, let us through,
it's a bright new star,
Now come, be the first
on your block to meet his eye!
Make way, here he comes,
Ring bells, bang the drums.
You're gonna love this
guy
Prince Ali, fabulous he,
Ali Ababwa!
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on one knee
Now try your best to stay
calm
Brush up your Sunday Salaam
And come and meet his
spectacular coterie.
Prince Ali, mighty is he,
Ali Ababwa!
Strong as ten regular
men, definitely
He faced the galloping
hordes
A hundred bad guys with
swords
Who sent those goons to
their lords, why Prince Ali!
CHORUS OF MEN: He's got seventy-five golden camels!
HARRY: Don't they look lovely, June?
CHORUS OF WOMEN: Purple peacocks, he's got fifty-three!
JUNE: Fabulous, Harry, I love the feathers!
GENIE:
When it comes to exotic
type mammals
Has he got a zoo, I'm
telling you
It's a world class menagerie!
GENIE:
GIRLS:
(in counterpoint)
Prince Ali, Handsome is
he, Ali Ababwa
There's no question this
Ali's alluring
That physique, how can
I speak
Never ordinary, never
boring
Weak at the knee
Everything about the man
just plain impresses
Well, get on out in that
square
He's a wonder, he's a
whiz, a wonder
Adjust your veil and prepare
He's about to pull my
heart asunder
To gawk and grovel and
stare at Prince Ali!
And I absolutely love
the way he dresses!
CHORUS:
He's got ninety-five white Persian monkeys!
(He's got the monkeys,
let's see the monkeys!)
And to view them, he charges
no fee!
(He's generous, so generous)
He's got slaves, he's
got servants and flunkies!
(Proud to work for him)
They bow to his whim,
love serving him
They're just lousy with
loyalty to Ali! Prince Ali!
GENIE:
Prince Ali!
Amorous he! Ali Ababwa
Heard your princess was
a sight lovely to see!
And that, good people,
is why
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 way for Prince Ali!
