Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the breadline
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford
And that's everything
One jump ahead of the lawmen
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke
Riffraff
Street rat
Scoundrel
Take that
Try a different tact, guys
Rip him open
'Round the back, guys
I can take a hint
Gotta face the facts
Could really use a friend or two
Huh?
Oh, it's sad, Aladdin's hit the bottom
He's become a one-man rise in crime
I'd blame parents, 'cept he hasn't got 'em
Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Tell you all about it when I got the time
One jump ahead of the slowpokes
One skip ahead of my doom
Next time gonna use a nom de plume
One jump ahead of the hitmen
One hit ahead of the flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the block
Stop, thief
Vandal
Abu
Scandal
Let's not be too hasty
Still I think he's rather tasty
Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Otherwise we'd get along
Wrong!
One jump ahead of the hoofbeats
One hop ahead of the hump
One trick ahead of disaster
They're quick, but I'm much faster
Here goes
Better throw my hand in
Wish me happy landing
All I gotta do is jump
One jump ahead of the breadline
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford
And that's everything
One jump ahead of the lawmen
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke
Riffraff
Street rat
Scoundrel
Take that
Try a different tact, guys
Rip him open
'Round the back, guys
I can take a hint
Gotta face the facts
Could really use a friend or two
Huh?
Oh, it's sad, Aladdin's hit the bottom
He's become a one-man rise in crime
I'd blame parents, 'cept he hasn't got 'em
Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Tell you all about it when I got the time
One jump ahead of the slowpokes
One skip ahead of my doom
Next time gonna use a nom de plume
One jump ahead of the hitmen
One hit ahead of the flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the block
Stop, thief
Vandal
Abu
Scandal
Let's not be too hasty
Still I think he's rather tasty
Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Otherwise we'd get along
Wrong!
One jump ahead of the hoofbeats
One hop ahead of the hump
One trick ahead of disaster
They're quick, but I'm much faster
Here goes
Better throw my hand in
Wish me happy landing
All I gotta do is jump
