Aladdin - One Jump Ahead Lyrics
[Aladdin:] Gotta keepOne jump ahead of the breadlineOne swing ahead of the swordI steal only what I can't afford(That's Everything!)One jump ahead of the lawmenThat's all, and that's no jokeThese guys don't appreciate I'm broke[Crowd:] Riffraff! Street rat! Soundrel! 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 factsYou're my only friend, Abu![Crowd:] Who?Oh, It's sad Aladdin hit the bottomHe's become a a one-man rise in crimeI'd blame parents except he hasn't got 'em[Aladdin:] Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eatTell you all about it when I got the time!One jump ahead of the slowpokesOne skip ahead of my doomNext time gonna use a nom de plumeOne jump ahead of the hitmanOne hit ahead of the flockI 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 eatOtherwise 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 inWish me happy landin'All I gotta do is jump
