Alan Menken
Friend Like Me
[Verse 1]
Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherezade had a thousand tales
But master you in luck 'cause up your sleeves
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how
And all you gotta do is rub that lamp and I'll say
Mister Aladdin, sir what will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order, jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like me, ho-ho
Life is your restaurant and I'm your maitre d'
Go on whisper what it is you want
You ain't never had a friend like me
[Verse 2]
Yеs sir, we pride ourselvеs on service
You're the boss, the king, the shah
Say what you wish it's yours, true dish
How about a little more Baklava?
Have some of column "A"
Try all of column "B"
Well I'm in the mood to help you dude
You ain't never had a friend like me
Woah-ho
Wah-ah-ah! Oh, now
Wah-ah-ah! Woah yeah
Wah-ah-ah! Watch out
Never had a friend like...
[Verse 3]
Can your friends do this?
Can your friends do that?
Can your friends pull this from their little hat?
Can your friends go, poof
Well, looky here, ha ha
Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let it rip
And then make the sucker disappear?
[Verse 4]
So doncha sit there slack jawed, buggy eyed
I'm want to answer all your midday prayers
You got me bona fide, certified
You got a genie for your chare d'affaires
I got a powerful urge to help you out
So what-cha wish? I really wanna know
You got a list that's three miles long, no doubt
And, all you gotta do is rub like so - and oh
Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three
Well I'm on the job, you big nabob
[Outro]
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend like me
Ya-dab-wow-ho-yeah
Wa-dab-wow
You ain't never had a friend like me
