Salam and good evening to you worthy friends
Welcome to the fabled city of Agrabah
City of flying carpets soaring heroes
Famous love ballots and more glitz and glamour
Then any other fictional city in the world
Oh I come from a land from a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where it's flat and immense
And the heat is intense
It's barbaric but hey it's home
When the wind's from the east
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down stop on by
Hop a Carpet and fly
To another Arabian night
And of course you know what Arabah's famous for
This Magical lamp
Don't be fooled by it's commonplace appearance
Like so many things it is not what's on the outside
But what's on the inside that counts
Wow got a little deep there down for a second heh
This lamp put Agrabah on the map
You've never been
Well we can fix that
Follow me to a place
Where incredible feats
Are routine every hour or so
Where enchantment runs rampant
It's wild in the streets
Open Sesame here we go
See the dervishes dance
In ridiculous pants
Then romance to your heart's delight
Come on down
Come on in
Let the magic begin
It's another Arabian night
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than naught
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Arabian nights
'Neath Arabian moons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes
In that magical place
In that mystical land
There's a Genie inside every door
He'll do all of your bidding
Your wish his command
It's demeaning but hey there you are
Unbelievable yes
An unethical mess
Nonetheless no one's very contrived
Do come here anew
Come to a land where any mountain can move
A land of high and treat with tricky logistics
Like prophets and mystics
And I've got statistics to prove
Arabian nights
Yes
Arabian nights
Agrabah
Come for the hummus
Stay for the fool show
Even the poor people
Look fabulous
And everyone here has a minor in dance
And now for the softer side of Agrabah
Arabian nights
Arabian nights
And of course you must watch
Your step here in Agrabah
For danger lurks around
Every corner and ugly bad guys too
Arabian nights
It's a city where a pitiless nobody
Can turn out to be
A noble somebody
Arabian nights
It's a place were a princess
Would give up her crown for true love
But her father the Sultan is a stickler
For the Ancient ways
And our hero's pals are as
Thick as thieves adorable but thieves
Oh and did I mention
Everybody sings
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than naught
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Arabian nights
'Neath Arabian moons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes
Arabian nights
Arabian nights
Arabian nights
Arabian nights
Arabian nights
