ALADDIN SONG SHEETS “CHINA IN YOUR HAND” [FEMALE SOLO VOCAL + SMALL DANCERS]
It was a theme she had On a scheme he had Told in a foreign land To take life on earth To the second birth And the man was in command It was a flight on the wings Of a young girl's dreams That flew too far away Don't push too far Your dreams are china in your hand Don't wish too hard Because they may come true And you can't help them You don't know what you might Have set upon yourself China in your hand Come from greed Never born of the seed Took a life from a barren hand Oh eyes wide Like a child in the form of man A prophesy for a fantasy The curse of a vivid mind Don't push too far Your dreams are china in your hand Don't wish too hard Because they may come true And you can't help them You don't know what you might Have set upon yourself China in your hand Oh your hand Your hand

ALADDIN SONG SHEETS “OLD BAZAAR IN CAIRO” (Abanazar) Sand bags, wind bags, camels with a hump, Fat girls, thin girls, some a little plump, Slave girls sold here, fifty bob a lump, In the old bazaar in Cairo. Brandy, shandy, beer without a froth, Braces, laces, a candle for the moth. Bet you'd look a smasher in an old loin cloth, In the old bazaar in Cairo. You can buy most any-anything, Thin bulls, fat cows, a little bit of string, You can purchase anything you wish, A clock, a dish and something for your Auntie Nellie, Harem, scarem, what d'ya think of that, Bare knees, striptease, dancing on the mat, Umpa! Umpa! That's enough of that, In the old bazaar in Cairo. Rice pud, very good, what's it all about, Made it in a kettle and they couldn't get it out, Everybody took a turn to suck it through the spout, In the old bazaar in Cairo. [Short instrumental] Mamadan, Ramadan, everything in style, Genuine, beduine carpet with a pile, Funny little odds and ends floating down the Nile, From the old bazaar in Cairo. You can buy most any-anything, Sheeps eyes, sand pies, a watch without a spring, You can buy a pomegranate too, A water-bag, a little bit of hokey pokey, Yashmaks, pontefracts, what a strange affair, Dark girls, fair girls, some with ginger hair, The rest of this is funny but they censor cut it there, In the old bazaar in Cairo [2:15]
