Aladdin Season 1 Episode 1

"One Jump Ahead" Song

Aladdin:
Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the breadline
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford
That's everything!

One jump ahead of the lawmen
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke

Guards:
Riffraff! Street rat!
Scoundrel! Take that!

Aladdin:
Just a little snack, guys!

Guards:
Rip him open, take it back, guys!

Aladdin:
I can take a hint, gotta face the facts
You're my only friend, Abu!

Women:
Who?
Oh, it's sad, Aladdin's hit the bottom
He's become a one-man rise in crime
I'd blame parents, except he hasn't got 'em!

Aladdin:
Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Tell you all about it when I got the time!

One jump ahead of the slowpokes
One skip ahead of my doom
Next time gonna use a nom de plume

One jump ahead of the hitmen
One hit ahead of the flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the block!

Crowd:
Stop, thief! Vandal!

Aladdin:
Abu!

Crowd:
Scandal!

Aladdin:
Let's not be too hasty

Fat Ugly Lady:
Still I think he's rather tasty

Aladdin:
Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Otherwise we'd get along

Guards:
Wrong!

Aladdin:
One jump ahead of the hoofbeats
(Guards: Vandal!)
One hop ahead of the hump
(Guards: Street rat!)
One trick ahead of disaster
(Guards: Scoundrel!)
They're quick, but I'm much faster
(Guards: Take that!)
Here goes, better throw my hand in
Wish me happy landin'
All I gotta do is jump!
