On the Stage Lyrics


On the Stage
How we love to be on the stage,           
Look at us, ‘cause we are the rage!
We will work for minimum wage,
‘Cause we love to be on the stage

How we love to be in the light.
Turn that spot and switch it to bright.
We will practice all day and night
‘Cause we love to be on the stage.

On the stage we can be anything at all:
A clown, a lion, or a star.
On the stage, we all become one family,
And Everyone can see how talented we are.

How we love to hear the applause,
We enjoy the ‘oo’s ‘and the ‘aah’s’
We’ll keep singing simply because –
We love to be on the stage.

On the stage we can be anything at all:
A clown, a lion, or a star.
On the stage, we all become one family,
And Everyone can see how talented we are.

How we love to hear the applause,
We enjoy the ‘oo’s ‘and the ‘aah’s’
We’ll keep singing simply because –
We love the stage
At any age,
We are quite the rage.
Pay us any wage,
Here we are,
On the stage!

Friend Like Me Lyrics


FRIEND LIKE ME
Genie         Well, Ali Baba had them forty thieves,
                   Scheherazade had a thousand tales
                   But mister, you’re in luck
                   ‘Cause up your sleeves you got
A brand of magic never fails.
You got some power in your corner now,
Some heavy ammunition in your camp.
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how,
See, all you gotta do is rub that lamp.
And I’ll say:
ALL: Mister Aladdin, sir,
What will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order – jot it down,
You ain’t never had a friend like me.
No, no, no. Life is your restaurant,
And I’m your maitre d’.
All               C’mon whisper what it is you want.
Genie         You ain’t never had a friend like me.
All               Yes sir, we pride ourselves on service.
                   You’re the boss, the king, the shah.
                   Say what you wish, it’s yours!
                   True dish, how ‘bout a little more baklava?
                   Have some of column “A”. Try all of column “B”.
Genie         I’m in the mood to help you, dude,
                   You ain’t never had a friend like me.
Dance section 16 bars (music only)
All               Wa-ah-ah,
Genie         Oh my!
All               Wa-ah-ah,
Genie         No no!
All               Wa-ah-ah,
Genie         Na na na! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
                   Can your friends do this? Can your friends do that?
                   Can your friends pull this out their little hat?!
All               Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three
                   I’m on the job, you big nabob,
                   ALL: You ain’t never had a friend, never had a friend,
                   You ain’t never had a friend, never had a friend,
                   You ain’t never had a friend like –
Group 1     (at the same time as Group 2)
                   Me, Like me, Like me.
                   You ain’t never had a friend like me!
Group 2     (at the same time as Group 1)
                   Wah-ah-ah, Oh my! Wah-ah-ah, No no!
                   Wah-ah-ah, na na na!
                   You ain’t never had a friend like me!

Sto me o me mi lo ma le Lyrics


Sto me o me mi lo ma le

Prince Ali Lyrics


PRINCE ALI
All               Make way for Prince Ali!
                   Say hey, it’s Prince Ali!
ALL….(please learn all words for all groups)
Group 1     Hey! Clear the way in the ol’ bazaar!
Group 2     Hey you! Let us through! It’s a bright new star!
Group 3     Oh come! Be the first on your block to meet his eye!
All               Make way, here he comes, ring bells, bang the drums!
Genie         Are you gonna love this guy!
All               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.
                   Then come and meet his spectacular coterie!
                   Prince Ali! Mighty is he! Ali Ababwa!
                   Strong as ten regular men definitely!
                   He faced the galloping hoards!
                   A hundred bad guys with swords!
                   Who sent those goons to their lords?
                   Why, Prince Ali!
Girls            He’s got seventy five golden camels.
Boys           Purple peacocks? He’s got fifty three.
Girls            When it comes to exotic type mammals,
All               Has he got a zoo? I’m telling you,
                   It’s a world class menagerie!

Prince Ali! Handsome is he, Ali Ababwa!
                   That physique! How can I speak? Weak at the knee.
                   Well, get on out in that square,
                   Adjust your veil and prepare
                   To gawk and grovel and stare at Prince Ali!

                   There’s no question this Ali is alluring,
                   Never ordinary, never boring,
                   Everything about the man just plain impresses.
                   He’s a winner, he’s a whiz, a wonder!
                   He’s about to pull my heart asunder!
                   And I absolutely love the way he dresses!
Group 1     He’s got ninety five white Persian monkeys
Narrators   He’s got the monkeys, let’s see the monkeys!
Group 1     And to view them he charges no fee
Narators    He’s generous, so generous!
Group 1     He’s got slaves, he’s got servants and flunkies
Genie & Crowd   Proud to work for him, bow to his whim,
                             Love serving him, they’re just lousy with loyalty
To Ali! Prince Ali!
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!
