The Emperor's New Groove

Music by Sting and David Hartley, lyrics by Sting

Perfect World
Tom Jones
There are despots and dictators
Political manipulators
There are blue bloods with the intellects of fleas
There are kings and petty tyrants
Who are so lacking in refinements
They'd be better suited swinging from the trees

He was born and raised to rule
No one has ever been this cool
In a thousand years of aristocracy
An enigma and a mystery
In Meso-American history
The quintessence of perfection, that is he

He's the sovereign lord of the nation
He's the hippest dude in creation
He's a hep cat in the emperor's new clothes
Years of such selective breeding
Generations have been leading
To this miracle of life we all know

What's his name? Kuzco... (ad lib)

He's the sovereign lord of the nation
He's the hippest cat in creation
He's the alpha, the omega, a to z
And this perfect world will spin
Around his every little whim
'Cause this perfect begins and ends with

What's his name? Kuzco... (ad lib)

My Funny Friend And Me
Sting
In the quiet time of evening
When the stars assume their patterns
And the day has made his journey
And we wonder just what happened
To the life we knew
Before the world changed
When not a thing I held was true
But you were kind to me
And you reminded me

That the world is not my playground
There are other things that matter
What is simple needs protecting
My illusions all would shatter
But you stayed in my corner
When the only world I knew was upside down
And now the world and me
Know you carried me

You see the patterns in the big sky?
Those constellations look like you and I
Just like the patterns in the big sky
We could be lost, could refuse to try
But you made it through
In the dark night
Who would those lucky guys turn out to be
But that unusual blend of my funny friend and me?

I'm not as clever as I thought I was
I'm not the boy I used to be because
You showed me something different
You showed me something pure
I was always seemed so certain
But I was never really sure
But you stayed
And you called my name
When others would have walked out on a lousy game
And look who made it through
But your funny friend and you

You see the patterns in the big sky?
Those constellations look like you and I
That tiny planet and the bigger guy
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry

Just like the patterns in the big sky
We'll be together 'til the end this time
Don't know the answer or the reason why
We'll stick together 'til the day we die

If I had to do this all a second time
I won't complain or make a fuss
Who would the angels send
But that unlikely blend
Of those two funny friends? That's us

Snuff Out The Light (Yzma's Song)
Eartha Kitt
When a women acquires a certain age
And the men who adored you no longer swoon
It pays to avoid the sunlit days
And live by the light of the kindly moon
But the moon grows old just like us all
And her beautiful years are done
So now she prays through endless days
To take her revenge on the sun

When I was a girl at my daddy's side
Papa, the royal mortician
Revealed to me in secret signs
The mark of a magician

And Daddy was no dummy
Did outrageous things with a mummy
And often the stiffs that he would shrive
Would look better dead than they did alive

I studied well, I learnt the trade
I thought my looks would never fade
If I could find that recipe
To give eternal youth to me

It was always my ambition
To use Papa's tuition
And gain some small remission
From the vagaries of time

Every little ray of sunshine robs me of my youth
Who to blame? Who the one? Who to curse?
You know the only one to blame would be my enemy the sun

Chorus:
Snuff out the light
Claim your right
To a world of darkness
Snuff out the light
Neophytes
Of a world of darkness

Supai, baby, turn me on
Every wrinkle soon be gone
I could squeeze myself with glee
The promises you made to me

I've really stopped at nothing
Murder, treachery, and lying
Whatever it takes to keep my looks
You really can't blame a girl for trying

(Chorus)

Snuff out the light
Claim your right
To a world of darkness
Snuff out the light
Here tonight

Apparitions of eternal darkness
Spiraling in circles through the night
Creatures of beguiling blackness
No more squinting in the light

Bats and owls and coiled sea dragons
Crocodile and carrion beasts
Swirling in the growing darkness
Join us in the coming feast

Spectre, wraith, and apparition
Spirit, demon, phantom, shade
Salamander serpents, dog-faced devils
Dance and watch the dying sunlight fade

Walk The Llama Llama
Rascal Flatts
Walk the llama llama
Take in the panorama
Walk the llama llama
Don't have to be a drama
Walk the llama llama
No one could be calmer
Walk the llama llama
Walk the llama llama
Double L.A.M.A.

Fluff up your fur
Stick out your chest
Walk the llama llama
Now you're looking your best
Keep out the wind
Keep out the snow
Wool by the llama from head to toe

Walk the llama llama
Take in the panorama
Walk the llama llama
Walk the llama llama
Double L.A.M.A.

Cool in the summer
Warm in the cold
A perfect fashion statement
For the young and the old
A cloak for the priest
A hat for the farmer
You could be looking
At the emperor's pajamas

That's why the llama walks so proud
That's why the llama holds his head up in the crowd
All of us applaud his generosity
He's more than just a passing curiosity
He covers up our pride
And all those things we have to hide
In any civilized society

Walk the llama llama...

Perfect World (Reprise)
Tom Jones
You'd be the coolest dude in the nation
Or the hippest cat in creation
But if you ain't got friends then nothing's worth the fuss
A perfect world will come to be
When everybody here can see
That a perfect world begins and ends
A perfect world begins and ends
A perfect world begins and ends with us

What's his name? Kuzco... (ad lib)

One Day She'll Love Me
Sting and Shawn Colvin
I'd never imagined before that the world could be turned on its head
I'd never have thought to be here in this place
I'd never have dreamt that in love I'd be lost and so easily led
I guess I was caught by that hint of a smile on her face

I thought I was happy before when my life was as easy as pie
But that was the past of an ignorant youth
I'm falling in love with the girl but I'm forced to be living a lie
And she'd never love me if she knew the truth

Is it asking too much if I pray for a miracle, miracle?
That one day she'll love me
One day she'll say "I care"

Although he's changing day by day
He finds these tender words of love impossible to say
He walks in the room and I'm never quite sure
If he's trying to be somebody else
I'm liking him better that he's not his arrogant self

Perhaps I'm expecting too much of a miracle, miracle?
One day he'll love me
One day he'll say "I love you"
And I will love him until I die

Distant star
Cast your light
On my life

We'll find these tender ways of love impossible to disobey
One day she'll love me
One day he'll say "I love you"
And I will love her
Until the moment
Our hearts stop beating
And we are light
