[00:00.00]Diamond in the Rough - Adam Jacobs/Jonathan Freeman/Don Darryl Rivera
[00:01.37]You're the one that I need
[00:03.18]You're nimble stealthy skilled
[00:05.69]Do you want to continue abusing those skills
[00:08.28]Stealing bits of bread and worthless bobbles
[00:11.01]Or do you want to make a name for yourself
[00:13.10]And do something that would make any mother proud
[00:16.44]
[00:17.21]You have the profile of a prince
[00:21.48]
[00:22.84]With a physique that matches
[00:24.96]
[00:26.21]Beneath the dirt and patches
[00:28.55]
[00:29.69]You are a diamond in the rough
[00:31.72]
[00:33.08]I say we work together since
[00:35.92]
[00:36.58]You're braver then which you are
[00:38.96]
[00:40.06]We're just as shocked as you are
[00:42.52]
[00:43.63]That you're a diamond in the rough
[00:45.42]Hey I'm no diamond in the rough
[00:47.54]Under the filth and the fleas
[00:49.94]There are gifts that you've been neglecting
[00:53.31]
[00:54.36]And truth be told you are not quite
[00:57.11]The guy that we were expecting
[01:00.15]
[01:01.52]And though you might need finesse
[01:03.70]And perhaps some sniffs disinfecting
[01:07.04]
[01:08.49]You'll be the one who succeeds when
[01:11.32]The lamp of their needs collecting
[01:15.99]
[01:16.52]Uhhh I dunno guys I've got a funny feeling about this
[01:19.50]I better just be on my way
[01:21.00]Take one step and die you brainless miscreant happy place
[01:24.85]Apologies
[01:25.69]
[01:26.56]What I meant to say is
[01:28.86]
[01:30.09]You just don't know how swell you are
[01:33.04]You just don't know how swell you are
[01:34.84]So far the only hitch is
[01:36.73]There's just an itty bitty hitch
[01:38.46]You're an embarrassment of riches
[01:40.52]Embarrassing too true
[01:42.09]You are the diamond in the rough
[01:43.83]Let's all rejoice the spooky voice
[01:45.47]And you're the diamond in the
[01:47.12]Rooooooough
[01:53.57]
[02:00.07]Look here's the diamond in the
[02:01.32]Three cheers the diamond in the
[02:03.39]We found the diamond in the rough
[02:05.70]You better find somebody else
[02:07.17]There is nobody else
[02:08.68]Talk about the girl
[02:09.98]Oh
[02:10.52]
[02:11.13]Then of course there's princess jasmine
[02:14.82]It's clear she took a shying to you
[02:18.15]
[02:18.85]But let me be frank
[02:20.48]With no cash in the bank
[02:22.42]You'll never win her heart
[02:24.45]It just tears me apart
[02:26.07]To see her slip right through your fingers
[02:33.02]
[02:34.92]Which way is this cave of yours
[02:36.19]That a boy
[02:37.20]Go
[02:38.13]Through
[02:39.10]You
[02:40.02]Might be a bum
[02:41.40]But you're one
[02:42.67]Of noble spirit
[02:44.62]
[02:45.95]It's just a cave that might eat you alive
[02:49.67]No need to fear it
[02:52.41]
[02:52.96]Well it's a risk that I might have to take
[02:56.86]We're glad to hear it
[03:00.02]So please no missteps or blunders
[03:03.14]Cue the cave of wonders
[03:05.06]We've waited long enough

[03:43.49]
[03:45.48]I don't believe it
[03:46.47]
[03:47.76]My mother always said if
[03:49.11]I only applied myself
[03:50.52]If I only believed
[03:51.50]We don't have time for self-discovery
