Lyrics Poor Unfortunate Souls - Original Broadway Cast
I
admit
that
in
the
past
I've
been
a
nasty.
They
weren't
kidding
when
they
called
me,
well,
a
witch.
But
you'll
find
that
nowadays
I've
mended
all
my
ways.
Repented,
seen
the
light
and
made
a
switch.
True?
Yes.
And
I
fortunately
know
a
little
magic.
It's
a
talent
that
I
always
have
posessed.
And
here
lately,
please
don't
laugh,
I
use
it
on
behalf
Of
the
miserable,
lonely
and
depressed.
Pathetic.
Poor
unfortunate
souls.
In
pain.
In
need.
This
one
longing
to
be
thinner,
That
one
wants
to
get
the
girl,
And
do
I
help
them?
Yes
indeed.
Those
poor
unfortunate
souls.
So
sad.
So
true.
They
come
flocking
to
my
cauldron
crying
"Spells
Ursula,
please",
And
I
help
them.
Yes
I
do.
Now
it's
happened
once
or
twice
Someone
couldn't
pay
the
price,
And
I'm
afraid
I
had
to
rake
'em
'cross
the
coals.
Yes
I've
had
the
odd
complaint
But
on
the
whole
I've
been
a
saint
To
those
poor
unfortunate
souls.
The
men
up
there
don't
like
a
lot
of
blabber.
They
think
a
girl
that
gossips
is
a
bore.
Yes
on
land
it's
much
preferred
for
ladies
not
to
say
a
word
And
after
all
dear
what
is
idle
prattle
for?
Come
on!
They're
not
all
that
impressed
with
coversation.
True
gentlemen
avoid
it
when
they
can.
But
they
don't
and
swoon
and
fawn
On
a
lady
who's
withdrawn.
It's
she
who
haunts
a
town
who
gets
a
man.
Come
on
you
poor
unfortunate
soul!
Go
ahead!
Make
your
choice.
I'm
a
very
busy
woman
and
I
haven't
got
all
day.
It
won't
cost
much.
Just
your
voice.
You
poor
unfortunate
soul.
It's
sad
but
true.
If
you
wanna
cross
a
bridge
my
sweet
you
gotta
pay
the
toll.
Take
a
gulp
and
take
a
breath.
Go
ahead
and
sign
the
scroll.
Flotsam,
Jetsam
now
I
got
her
boys.
The
boss
is
on
a
roll!
You
poor
unfortunate
soul!
