Things Are Not What They Appear is a song feature in Pocahontas II: Journey to the New World.
Lyrics
Jester:
Things are not what they appear
As tonight will make quite clear
But what is real will be revealed
I can feel the moment's near
Jester 2:
Things are never what they seem
That will be this evening's theme
A music sights for your delight
perhaps a few to make you scream
Ratcliffe:
You'll be surprised to see whose disguise
Is the cleverest one of the lot
After our show the whole world will know
Who's is pretending to be what they're not
If a jester's grin or a dancer's spin
Should be pleasing, please sayYea!
Crowd:
Yea!
Ratcliffe:
If a jugglers feat should be incomplete
He's the one to greet with Nay
Crowd:
Nay!
Ratcliffe:
If the fools we see should look like you and me
Then before the night goes by
Ask why, why, why, why, why,
Why?
Jester:
Things are not what they appear
And the finest proof's right here
Radcliffe:
How I regret when we first meet
I believed my own worst fear
Jester 2:
Things are never what they seem
So in keeping with our theme
Ratcliffe:
A change of hair, a dress to wear
And our nightmare's now a dream
Clueless and wild
I saw this sweet child as a
Danger to one and to all
Savage, I thought
What could Rolfe have brought
Now I see she's the belle of the ball
Things are never what they seem
Crowd:
He's right, he's right
Ratcliffe:
Many don't say what they mean
Crowd:
He's right, he's right
Jester:
A powered face is just the place
Jester 2:
To hide an ugly scheme
Ratcliffe:
Only one thing's really clear
Things are not what they appear
