Dream a Little Harder Lyrics & Tabs by Twisted Chicago Cast
Dream a Little Harder
guitar chords lyrics
JAFAR
I look around the kingdom,
And see the desparation
And the devastation that persists.
No matter what I do.
But today could be the day
I finally make a difference
And all the grateful citizens will say to me
CITIZENS
Fuck you!
Fuck you!
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!
Fuck you, Jafar!
JAFAR
Good morning, baker!
Fuck you, Jafar!
JAFAR
Good morning, baker!
BAKER
Where are you off to today, you no good piece of shit?
PARROT
Squawk! Piece of shit!
BAKER
What did you just call me, you bastard?
JAFAR
No! Friend! I said nothing. That was my bird.
He has the ability to repeat words that others have spoken.
BAKER
Well, why don't you teach him these words, then?
Fuck you, Jafar.
Marie! The baguettes! Hurry up!
CITIZENS
Why don't we have enough to eat?
Why are we dying in the street?
Why does my baby always cry?
Why did my mommy have to die?
Mine too!
The answer here is crystal clear
Jafar, that ugly old vizier!
He's the reason for our many woes
GIRL 1
Though we're upset, we shouldn't fret
We mustn't let our selves forget
The saying every child raised within our kingdom knows
You've got to dream a little harder
When life won't go your way
Simply dream a little harder
Trust me when I say that when you
Dream a little harder
You're sure to follow through
'Cause if you're good and you're attractive
No need to be proactive
Good things will just happen to you!
JAFAR
I've come to return the book I borrowed!
LIBRARIAN
Oh! Jafar! It took you long enough, you shit-eating dog.
JAFAR
I couldn't put it down! It's one of my favorites!
The story of a misunderstood witch who's really not wicked at all.
She's just green! But she still gets blamed for all the kingdom's problems.
LIBRARIAN
Oh, so you think you're better than me just 'cause you can read?
Well get out of my bookstore, we don't like your kind here anyway.
JAFAR
But what about the book?
LIBRARIAN
Keep it. And may the rats ejaculate upon you.
JAFAR
Thank you! Thank you very much!
CITIZENS
Why is the kingdom plagued by theft?
Why are there no more good jobs left?
Why does the sun go down at night?
Why is everyone in the kingdom white?
Um... Jafar?
Jafar!
Jafar!
Jafar!
The man who's just
Could ever trust
A face that triggers such disgust
His twisted features give me such a chill
So let us pray that one fine day
That evil man will go away
'Cause if we want it bad enough he will!
For if you
Dream a little harder
You'll get what you desire
Dream a little harder
When things are looking dire
If you dream a little harder
Success is guaranteed
If you are sure of your intentions
Some magic intervention
Will give you the edge that you need
JARAR
Oh! Pardon me, madame.
BELLE
Oh, that's alright. Just try to keep your fat face out of that motherfucking book.
JAFAR
I know that I'm no prize
I'm not so easy on the eyes
I can't rely on looks to get me by
But ugliness permits a man to use his wits
'Cause pretty people never have to try.
I hear the people whisper as I walk about the streets
I know they call me
CITIZENS
Ugly old Jafar!
JAFAR
What I call planning, they call scheming
What I call delusion, they call dreaming
Why am I the only one who sees things as they are?
CITIZENS
Wish a little stronger
I need six eggs
JAFAR
Why not buy some?
CITIZENS
Hope a little bigger
I want to fly
JAFAR
That's unrealistic
CITIZENS
Think a little louder
I want to be a cat
JAFAR
What?
CITIZENS
Fuck you
Whistle while you swallow
A spoonful of sugar
And your dreams will come true upon a star
Dream hard enough, my friend
Jafar will meet a violent end
He could be skewered by a sailing ship
Or hanged in tangled jungle vines
Or eaten by hyenas
Or he'll plummet to his death from a castle
A clock
Or a cliff
And if we dream a little harder
Our patience and our honor
Will rid us of that ugly old Jafar!
Fuck you!
