I cant believe Im stuck with her all summer Ill be she doesnt wrestle, hunt or box He looks conceited What a total bummer If I get lucky Ill get chicken pox So happy you could come So happy to be here How Id like to run This is not my idea This isnt my idea Of fun
The children seem to get along quite nicely Well join our lands if this arrangement clicks My dear King William, thats my point precisely Its such good parenting And politics So happy we agree I think weve got a deal Dereks quite a catch This is my idea This is my idea Of a match
Good heavens, child, dont dawdle We cant keep Derek waiting I haven't packed or washed my hair And father I get seasick She soon will be arriving Is that respect you're showing To make me kiss her hand again I swear I'm gonna be sick
One day Prince Derek will be her intended Splendid
We've tried all summer but we just can't lose her Hey fellas, wait up! Quick, put on some speed When picking teams Or friends I never choose her You'd think she'd take a hint a learn to read This really isn't fair We really couldn't care Boys, it's all or none This is not my idea This isn't my idea Of fun
Long before they met Derek and Odette Were destined to be wedded However anyone could see The only point on which they didn't disagree Was that the very thought of summertime Was dreaded
She tries to talk me into playing dress-up She's always flirting with the castle guards I think you really sorta like her, 'fess up I'd like her better if she'd lose at cards Four sevens and a ten I think I've won again Every time she's won This is my idea This isn't my idea Of fun
We need a royal wedding I'd love to be invited At least we'd get a holiday to rest our ploughs and axes Someday these two will marry Two lands will be united And with some luck their marriage may result in lower taxes
What if Odette doesn't go for the merger? Urge her!
For as long as I remember We've been told we'd someday wed Every June until September All their pushing and annoying hints I've got bruises with their fingerprints I can do much better I am sure He's so immature
I see him smiling and my knees start buckling I see inside him and my doubts are gone She started out as such an ugly duckling And somehow suddenly became a swan So happy to be here 'Til now I never knew It is you I've been dreaming of This is my idea This is my idea Chorus What a good idea, such a charming and romantic notion This is my idea (This is my idea) Such a good idea (Such a good idea) What a good idea, such a powerful and magic potion This is exactly my idea Of love
This is my idea This is my idea This is my idea Of love
