Sweet Child

Sweet Child is a song from The Little Mermaid Broadway show. It is performed by Flotsam and Jetsam right before Ariel's meeting with Ursula. The name is derived from Flotsam and Jetsam's first speaking line "Poor child, poor sweet child".

Lyrics
Poor child

Poor, sweet child.

She has a very serious problem, hasn’t she?

Hmm, if only

there were something

we could do.

Who are you two?

Sweet child

Poor child.

So tragic

so misunderstood.

Dear child

sad child.

Life’s looking

shall we say

not good.

No.

Who will ease her woe’s and worry’s?

Who will help get her man?

Sweet child, perhaps the sea witch can

You can’t possibly mean aunt Ursula?

She knows your dreams

Father says her magic is evil

She’ll grant your prayer

Please I have to go!

She’ll cast a charm

A tiny spell.

Why the alarm?

No one will tell

No one will care.

It’s your affair.

Sweet child

Dear child

Poor child.

Sad child.

We’ll bring you to her lair right now.

Bet in half a sec,

your prince and you are reconciled.

Together

Forever

Take me to her!

Sweet child.
