Ursula:
The only way to get what you want...
...is to become a human yourself!
Ariel:
(Gasps with excitement) Can you do that?
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...
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
But you'll find that nowadays
I've mended all my ways
Repented, seen the light and made a switch
True?
Yes!
And I fortunately know a little magic
It's a talent that I always have possessed
And here lately, please don't laugh
I use it on behalf
Of the miserable, lonely and depressed
(Pathetic)
Poor unfortunate souls
In pain
In need
This one longing to be thinner
That one wants to get the girl
And do I help them?
Yes, indeed
Those poor unfortunate souls
So sad
So true
They come flocking to my cauldron
Crying, "Spells, Ursula please!"
And I help them?
Yes, I do
Now it's happened once or twice
Someone couldn't pay the price
And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
Yes, I've had the odd complaint
But on the whole I've been a saint...
To those poor unfortunate souls
Ursula:
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. (laughs slyly)
Life's full of tough choices, isn't it? (laughs slyly)
Oh!
And there is, one, more, thing!
We haven't discussed the subject of payment.
Ariel: But I don't have any -
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
