Prince Ali Songtext
von Jonathan Young

Make way
For Prince Ali
Say "Hey
It′s Prince Ali!"
Hey clear the way in the ol' bazaar
Hey you! Let us through
It′s a bright new star
Oh come be the first on your block to meet his eye!
Make way!
Here he comes!
Ring the bells!
Bang the drums!
Ah! 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 off 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 hordes!
A hundred bad guys with swords!
Who sent those goons to their lords?
Why Prince Ali!
He's got seventy five golden camels
Purple peacocks he′s got fifty three
When it comes to exotic type mammals
Has he got a zoo?
I′m tellin' you!
It′s a world class menagerie!
Prince Ali, handsome as 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!
He's got ninety five white Persian monkeys
And to view them he charges no fee!
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
Prince Ali, glamorous 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 forty fakirs, his cooks and bakers
And birds that warble on key!
Make way!
For Prince Ali!
