Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What are we gonna do, storm the palace?
Yes, storm the palace
Wait, I-I didn't mean that
[Verse 2]
That's the spirit
Who's up for a little high adventure?
Ok, first thing's first. We're gonna need weapons
[Verse 3]
Weapons? Oh jeez, uh, couldn't we just send a- a strongly worded letter?
Seriously?
Maybe I can convince these guys to work out a trade
[Verse 4]
Convince those guys, my lord and master
Well, do it faster, let's be gone
In wasting time, we court disaster
Pick up that sword and strap it on
[Verse 5]
Fate blows her kiss
Chills your heart, takes your hand
[Verse 6]
Fate feels like this
Play your part, this was planned
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
You're off and riding, sabre flashing
Your banner high, your molars gnashing
You feel so dashing on a high adventure
Get set to give some guy a thrasing
'Cause high adventure's in the air
[Verse 9]
There's high adventure in the air, guys
Someone's out there, guys, someone bad
He's got a damsel in despair, guys
Heck, that's not fair, guys, and I'm mad
[Verse 10]
Fate blows her kiss
Winks her eye
Plots her scheme
Plots it for Babkak, Omar, and Kassim
[Verse 11]
And so, we three will go
Until it's through, until it ends
Here comes Aladdin's only friends
Off on a high adventure
[Verse 12]
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
[Verse 13]
(Hi, hi, hi)
Adventure
Heigh-ho, the stallions are stampeding
With Allah's wisdom ever leading
My finger's bleeding
Well, that's high adventure
[Verse 14]
What we've collectively been needing
Is high adventure in the air
[Verse 15]
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
And to Aladdin's motley crew, it's time for
High adventure
[Verse 16]
Danger to danger we go flying
Completely unafraid of dying
Omar, stop crying, this is high adventure
[Verse 17]
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 air
