One Jump Ahead (Aladin) — текст песни (Disney)

Aladdin:] Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the breadline
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 it`s 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 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 hitmen
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 hoofbeats
(Vandal!)
One hop ahead of the hump
(Street rat!)
One trick ahead of disaster
(Scoundrel!)
They`re quick, but I`m much faster
(Take that!)
Here goes, better throw my hand in
Wish me happy landin`
All I gotta do is jump
