Prince Ariel, as the only son of King Triton, is constantly pushed to find a bride and have children, but he couldn’t be less interested in the female form. He dreams of finding a place where he’ll be accepted for who he is. (Art by thecrownedheart – let me know if you don’t like it being used.)
Lyrics:
Look at this place?
Isn’t it neat?
Wouldn’t you think that my life is complete?
Wouldn’t you think I’m the boy, the boy who has everything?
Family and friends,
A palace of gold…
Just how much privilege can one boy’s life hold?
Looking around here you think
“Sure, he’s got everything.”
I’ve a father and sisters who love me,
I’ve got ladies who faun and adore.
I guess some of their fins are quite lovely…
But who cares?
No big deal…
I want more….
I wanna be where the people are.
I wanna see all the pretty young men
walking around on those –
what do you call ‘em? Oh, feet.
Flippin’ your fins you don’t get too far,
Legs are required for jumpin’, dancin’
strollin’ along down a –
what’s that word again? –Street!
Up where they walk,
up where they run,
up where they stay all day in the sun!
Happy and free,
wish I could be
part of that world.
What would I give
if I could live
out of this ocean?
What would I pay
to spend a day warm on the sand?
Betcha on land
they accept and
bet they will understand the notion:
don’t want women!
Sick of swimmin’!
Ready to stand!
And ready to know what the people know,
ask 'em my questions and get some answers…
What’s a rainbow? And why is it –
what’s the word? –Queer?
Get me out of here!
Wouldn’t I love,
love to explore that shore up above!
Out of the sea…
Wish I could be
part of that world.
