“High Adventure” was an action sequence song written for an early version of Aladdin that saw the Genie of the Ring (different from the Genie of the Lamp) convincing Aladdin and his friends and fellow thieves Babkak, Omar, and Kassim to save Aladdin’s love interest. The song was eventually cut due t...
[GENIE OF THE RING]
Convince those guys, my lord and master
[ALADDIN, spoken]
I'm trying Genie
[GENIE OF THE RING]
Well, do it faster, let's be gone
[ALADDIN, spoken]
Look guys, I know the other genie's big. Remember, he used to work for me
[GENIE OF THE RING]
In wasting time we court disaster
Pick up that sword and strap it on
[ALADDIN, spoken]
Uh, did I wish for a sword? Anybody hear me wish for a sword?
[GENIE OF THE RING]
Fate blows her kiss
Chills your heart
Takes your hand
[ALADDIN, spoken]
I don't even know if I believe in fate
[GENIE OF THE RING]
Fate feels like this
Play your part
This was planned
[ALL]
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]
There's high adventure in the air, guys
Someone's out there, guys, someone bad
[GENIE, spoken]
That'a 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, spoken]
Very good, Master
Gnash those teeth
[ALADDIN]
Fate blows her kiss
Winks her eye
Plots her scheme
Plots it for Babkak, Omar, and Kassim
[ALL]
And so
We five will 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
One more time, it's
High Adventure
Heigh-ho, the stallions are stampeding
With Allah's wisdom ever leading
[OMAR, spoken]
My finger's bleeding
[ALL]
Well, that's
High Adventure
What we've collectively been needing
Is high adventure in the air
[Instrumental break]
[ALL]
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
[?]
Omar stop crying
[ALL]
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 air
