URSULA (spoken) Brother, darling! You're right on cue!
KING TRITON (spoken) Give Ariel back to me!
URSULA (spoken) Not on your life
(sung) It so happens that your daughter Signed a little contract
KING TRITON (spoken) No!
URSULA Even drew a little Heart over the "I" Is it binding? Goodness, yes Unbreakable Unless…
KING TRITON (spoken) Unless...
URSULA There is a little something We could try...
KING TRITON (spoken) Go on...
URSULA Yes... Perhaps we could arrange A sort of trade off
KING TRITON (spoken) What!
URSULA Maybe swap your daughters Soul for, say Your own? Sign the scroll And set her free! Or else she comes with me To suffer through eternity Alone...
(spoken) The mute little hatchling drowning in her own sorrow with no voice left to call out your name... Well, I'm waiting
KING TRITON (spoken) It's not my soul you're after It's my power!
URSULA (spoken) Which would you rather be? The King of the Sea? Or a father to his little girl...
(King Triton Signs)
URSULA (spoken) Finally! The oceans belong to me!
(sung) And now you poor unfortunate soul! Times up! You're through! Now the power of Poseidon Has been once again made whole All the magic of the Trident And the Shell in my control And now dark shall reign forever Over ocean, sea, and shore!
(spoken) Now see for yourself how banishment feels!
