SCENE 19

Iago: Puppet want a cracker?

[Sultan moaning]

Iago: Here's your cracker! Shoved all the way down your throat! Here! Have lots!

Jasmine: Stop it! Jafar, leave him alone!

[Jafar gestures Iago to stop, Iago growls as he shoves the remaining crackers down the Sultan]

Jafar: It pains me to see you reduced to this, Jasmine. A beautiful desert bloom such as yourself should be on the arm of the most powerful man in the world. What do you say, my dear? Why, with you as my queen...

Jasmine: [throws wine at Jafar's face] Never!

Jafar: [enraged growl] I'll teach you some respect!!

[Jasmine gasps]

Jasmine: ♪ Here comes a wave, Meant to wash me away, A tide that is taking me under, Swallowing sand,

Left with nothing to say, My voice drowned out in the thunder

But I won't cry, And I won't start to crumble, Whenever they try, To shut me or cut me down

I won't be silenced, You can't keep me quiet, Won't tremble when you try it, All I know is I won't go speechless

'Cause I'll breathe, When they try to suffocate me, Don't you underestimate me, 'Cause I know that I won't go speechless

Written in stone, Every rule, every word, Centuries old and unbending, Stay in your place, Better seen and not heard, But now that story is ending

'Cause I, I cannot start to crumble, So come on and try, Try to shut me and cut me down

I won't be silenced, You can't keep me quiet, Won't tremble when you try it, All I know is I won't go speechless, Speechless

Let the storm in, I cannot be broken, No, I won't live unspoken, 'Cause I know that I won't go speechless

Try to lock me in this cage, I won't just lay me down and die, I will take these broken wings, And watch me burn across the sky, Hear the echoes saying I

Won't be silenced, Though you want to see me tremble when you try it, All I know is I won't go speechless, Speechless ♪

♪ 'Cause I'll breathe

When they try to suffocate me

Don't you underestimate me

'Cause I know that I won't go speechless

All I know is I won't go speechless

Speechless ♪

Jafar: No... Genie. I have decided to make my final wish. I wish for Princess Jasmine to fall desperately in love with me.

Genie: Ah, Master, there are a few addendas, some quid pro quo...

Jafar: Don't talk back to me, you big blue lout! You will do what I order to do, slave!

Jasmine: Jafar. I never realized how... incredibly handsome you are. [Genie's jaw drops]

Jafar: Mmm... That's better. Now, pussycat... tell me more about myself.

Jasmine: You're tall, dark, well dressed...

Genie: Al. Al, little buddy!

Aladdin: Shh.

Genie: Al, I can't help you. I work for Señor Psychopath now. What are you gonna do?

Aladdin: Hey, I'm a street rat, remember. I'll improvise.
