URSULA
My dear, sweet child. That's what I do. It's what I live for.
To help unfortunate merfolk like yourself.
Poor souls with no one else to turn to.

G#5
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty
                                         -        F#5 -
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
But you'll find that nowadays
I've mended all my ways
E5      -  -        F#5     -  -       G#5 - -
Repented, seen the light, and made a switch
    -
True? Yes.
And I fortunately know a little magic
                            -        F#5 -
It's a talent that I always have possessed
And dear lady, please don't laugh
I use it on behalf
E5      -  -        F#5    -   -       G#5   -
Of the miserable, the lonely, and depressed (pathetic)

E5
Poor unfortunate souls
D#5     -   C#5  -
In pain, in need
A5  - -   G#5  - -
This one longing to be thinner
C#5  - -  G#5 - -
That one wants to get the girl
A#5    -
And do I help them?
     D#5   -
Yes, indeed
E5
Those poor unfortunate souls
D#5     -   C#5 -
So sad, so true
A5  - -    G#5 - -
They come flocking to my cauldron
C#5  - - G#5 - -
Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!"
A#5   -
And I help them!
C#5  -
Yes I do


         A5  -
Now it's happened once or twice
        C#5  -
Someone couldn't pay the price
         D#5  -                              E5   -
And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
         A5   -
Yes I've had the odd complaint
           E5  - -    F#5 - -  G#5 -
But on the whole I've been a saint
  E5  - -    F#5 - -  C#5
To those poor unfortunate souls

Have we got a deal?

ARIEL
If I become human, I'll never be with my father or sisters again.

URSULA
But you'll have your man, heh heh. Life's full of tough choices, isn't it? Heh heh.
Oh, and there is one more thing.
We haven't discussed the subject of payment.

ARIEL
But I don't have-

URSULA
I'm not asking much, just a token really, a trifle!
What I want from you is - your voice.

ARIEL
But without my voice, how can I-

URSULA
You'll have your looks, your pretty face.
And don't underestimate the importance of body language, ha!

A5
The men up there don't like a lot of blabber
                          -        G5 -
They think a girl who gossips is a bore!

Yet on land it's much prefered for ladies not to say a word
          F5     -  -        G5  - -      A5 -
And after all dear, what is idle babble for?

Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
                          -        G5 -
True gentlemen avoid it when they can

But they dote and swoon and fawn

On a lady who's withdrawn
             F5    -  -        G5  - -      A5 -
It's she who holds her tongue who get's a man


            F5
Come on you poor unfortunate soul
E5     -   D5  -
Go ahead! Make your choice!
      A#5  - -   A5   - -     D5     - -       A5 - -
I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day
         B5    -
It won't cost much
          E5 - - A5 - -
Just your voice!
    F5
You poor unfortunate soul
     E5   -   D5  -
It's sad but true
       A#5       - -      A5   - -
If you want to cross the bridge, my sweet
       D5     - -       A5 - -
You've got the pay the toll
       A#5     - -      A5   - -
Take a gulp and take a breath
    D5     - -    A5 - -
And go ahead and sign the scroll
         A#5      - -      A5   - -
Flotsam , Jetsam , now I've got her, boys
    D5 - -  E5 - - F5 -
The boss is on a roll
     D5 -    F5 -- A5 -- D5
This poor unfortunate soul
D5

F#5 - - G#5 - -
Beluga sevruga
     A5      - -   B5 - -   C#5
Come winds of the Caspian Sea
F#5 - -   G#5 - -
Larengix glaucitis
   A5  - -   B5 - -
Et max laryngitis
   C#5 - -  F5
La voce to me

Now, sing!

ARIEL
Aah...
