ALADDIN: Gotta
keep
One jump ahead of the
bridling
One swing ahead of the
sword
I steal only what I can't
afford
That's
everything
One jump ahead of the
lawmen
That's all, and that's no
joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm
broke
CROWD: Riffraff! Street
rat!
Scoundrel! Take
that!
ALADDIN: Just a
little snack, guys
CROWD: Rip him open, take
it back, guys
ALADDIN: I can take
a hint, gotta face the facts
You're my only friend
Abu!
CROWD:
Who?
LADIES: Oh its sad
Aladdin's hit the bottom
He's become a one-man rise in
crime
I'd blame parents except he hasn't got
'em
ALADDIN: Gotta eat
to live, gotta steal to eat
Tell you all about it when i've got
the time!
One jump ahead of the
slowpokes
One skip ahead of my
doom
Next time gonna use a nom de
plume
One jump ahead of the hit
men
One hit ahead of the
flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the
block
CROWD: Stop, thief!
Vandal!
Outrage!
Scandal!
ALADDIN: Let's not
be too hasty
LADY: Still I think he's
rather tasty
ALADDIN: Gotta eat
to live, gotta steal to eat
Otherwise we'd get
along
CROWD:
Wrong!
ALADDIN: One jump
ahead of the hoof beats
(Vandal!)
One hop ahead of the
hump
(Scoundrel!)
They're quick, but I'm much
faster
(Take that!)
Here goes, better throw by hand
in
Wish me happy
landin'
All I gotta do is
jump
Reprise:
ALADDIN: Riffraff,
street rat. I don't buy
that. If only they'd look
closer Would they see a poor
boy? No sire. They'd find out, there's so
much more to me
