Friends on the Other Side (From "The Princess and the Frog")

Friends on the Other Side (From "The Princess and the Frog") - Keith David

Don't you disrespect me little man

Don't you derogate or deride

You're in my world now not your world

And I got friends on the other side

He's got friends on the other side

That's an echo gentlemen

Just a little something we have here in Louisiana

A little parlor trick don't worry

Sit down at my table

Put your minds at ease

If you relax it'll enable me to do

Anything I please

I can read your future

I can change it round some too

I'll look deep into your heart and soul

You do have a soul don't you Lawrence

Make your wildest dreams come true

I got voodoo I got hoodoo

I got things I ain't even tried

And I got friends on the other side

He's got friends on the other side

The cards the cards the cards will tell

The past the present and the future as well

The cards the cards just take three

Take a little trip into your future with me

Now you young man are from across the sea

You come from two long lines of royalty

I'm a royal myself on my mother's side

Your lifestyle's high but your funds are low

You need to marry a Lil Hunny whose daddy got dough

Mom and dad cut you off huh playboy

Now y'all gotta get hitched

But hitching ties you down

You just wanna be free

Hop from place to place

But freedom takes green

It's the green it's the green

It's the green you need

And when I looked into your future

It's the green that I see

On you little man I don't want to waste much time

You've been pushed around all your life

You've been pushed around by your mother

And your sister and your brother

And if you was married

You'd be pushed around by your wife

But in your future for you I see

Is exactly the man you always wanted to be

Shake my hand

Come on boys

Won't you shake a poor sinner's hand

Yes

Are you ready

Are you ready

Are you ready

Transformation central

Transformation central

Reformation central

Reformation central

Transmogrification central

Can you feel it

You're changing you're changing

You're changing all right

I hope you're satisfied

But if you ain't don't blame me

You can blame my friends on the other side

You got what you wanted

Ha ha ha

But you lost what you had

All hush
