Poor Unfortunate Souls

Sung by: China Anne McClain

[Verse 1]

I admit that, in the past, I've a nasty

They weren't kidding when they called me, well, "a witch"

But chu'll find it nowadays I've mended all my ways

Repented, seen the light, and made a switch

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

[Chorus 1]

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!

Poor unfortunate souls

So sad, so true

They come flocking to my cauldron

Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!"

And I help them! Yes, I do!

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus 1]

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!

Poor unfortunate souls

So sad, so true

They come flocking to my cauldron

Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!"

And I help them! Yes, I do!

[Verse 3]

Th-the men up there don't like a lot of blabber

They think a girl who gossips is a bore

Yes, on land it's much preferred for ladies not to say a word

And, after all, dear, what is idle prattle for?

They're not all that impressed with conversation

"True gentlemen" avoid it when they can

But they dote, and swoon, and fawn

On a lady's who's withdrawn

It's she who hold's her tongue who gets a man!

(C'mon, now!)

[Chorus 2]

Poor unfortunate soul

Go ahead! Make your choice!

I'ma very busy woman, and I haven't got all day!

It won't cost much, just your voice! (uh, yeah-yeah!)

Poor unfortunate soul, it's sad (so sad!), but true

If you wanna cross the bridge, you got to pay the toll

Take a gulp, and take a breath, and go ahead!

And sign the scroll!

(C'mon, you!)

Poor unfortunate souls in pain, in need

This one longing to be thinner

That one wants to get the girl

And do I help (ha, ha, ha, ha) them? Yes, indeed! (eh- c'mon, girl!)

Poor unfortunate souls in pain, in need

They come flocking to my cauldron

Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!"

And I help them! Yes, I do! (Yes, I do!)

Ha-ha

[Outro]

Ha-ha (Ha-ha)
