[GRIMSBY]
Welcome, dear friends, to our contest
The first that this kingdom has ever seen!
We gather today for a vocal display
So our prince may at last choose a queen!
(Spoken)
These six princesses possess the most accomplished voices in all the land! Tonight, one of you will go home with the crown!
May the best woman win!
[PRINCESS 1]
Listen to me
Don't I sound rich?
Loud, am I not?
Plus, I've got perfect pitch
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has everything?
[PRINCE ERIC, spoken]
That's not her voice. I'll know it the moment I hear it--
[PRINCESS 2]
Listen to this
Clear as can be!
You'll know I'm it
When I hit my high C! Ah!
[PRINCESS 3]
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has everything?
Everything! Everything...
[PRINCESS 4]
I'm a world-famous coloratura!
[PRINCESS 5]
My vibrato is second to none!
[PRINCESS 6]
I'm a walking display of bravura!
[PRINCESSES]
It's so clear...
Can't you hear?
[PRINCESS 5]
I'm the one!
[PRINCESS 1]
I'm the one!
[PRINCESS 4]
I'm the one!
[PRINCESSES 3 & 6]
I'm the one!
[PRINCESSES]
I'm the one!
