Lyrics[]
Genie: Convince those guys my lord and master.
Aladdin: (speaking) I'm trying Genie, but...
Genie: Well do it faster. Let's be gone.
Aladdin: (speaking to his friends) Look guys, I know the other Genie is big. Remember he used to work for me.
Genie: In wasting time we court disaster!
Pick up that sword and strap it on.
Omar: (speaking as a sword appears in his hand) Did I wish for a sword? Dis [sic] anybody hear me wish for a sword?
Genie: Fate blows her kiss, chills your heart, takes your hand.
Babkak: I don't even know if I believe in Fate.
Abbi: (catching the spirit) Fate feels like this.
Aladdin: Play your part, this was planned.
Aladdin, Abbi, and Genie: And, lo -- before you know
You grab your horse, you grab your gear, your moment's now,
Your moment's here.
It's time for
High ... adventure.
You're off and riding, saber flashing.
Your banner high, your molars gnashing.
You feel so dashing
On a high ... adventure.
Get set to give some guy a thrashing,
'cause high adventure's in the air.
Aladdin: (as they fight the Guards) There's high adventure in the air guys.
Someone's out there guys. someone bad.
Genie: (speaking) 'Atta boy, Master! Let 'em have it!
Aladdin: He's got a damsel in despair guys.
Heck, that's not fair guys, and I'm mad!
Genie: (speaking) Very good,mMster. Gnash those teeth!
Aladdin: Fate blows her kiss, winks her eye, plots her scheme.
Plots it for Babkak, Omar, and Kassim.
Chorus: And so, we five'll go!
Until it's through,
Until it ends!
Here comes Aladdin and his friends,
Off on a
High ... adventure
To confrontations so exciting!
They're playing music while we're fighting.
Scratching and biting
On a high ... adventure
Feel that adrenaline igniting,
'cause high adventure's in the air!
(Music break)
Chorus: One more time! It's
High ... adventure!
Heigh-ho, the stallions are stampeding!
With Allah's wisdom ever leading!
Omar: My finger's bleeding!
Chorus: Well, that's high ... adventure
What we've collectively been needing,
Is high adventure in the air.
(Music break)
Chorus: Hark! Something calls like a dream from afar,
calls out to Babkak, Kassim, and Omar.
It's -- Wait!-- The voice of fate!
It calls to me, it calls to you
Abbi, Aladdin, and the crew
Off on a
High ... adventure
Danger to danger we go flying!
Completely unafraid of dying!
(Aladdin: Omar, stop crying.)
Chorus: This is high ... adventure!
There's no ignoring or denying,
the kind of thrills that it's supplying.
And the effect's electrifying
When high adventure's in the...
There's high adventure in air!
