Impossible lyrics

MARIE

Impossible

For a plain yellow pumpkin

To become a golden carriage!

Impossible

For a plain country bumpkin

And a prince to join in marriage

And four white mice

Will never be four white horses

Such fol-de-rol and fiddledy dee dee

Of course is

Impossible!

But the world is full of zanies and fools

Who don’t believe in sensible rules

And won’t believe what sensible people say

And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes

Keep building up impossible hopes

Impossible things are happenning every day!

ELLA

Impossible!

MARIE

Impossible!

ELLA

Impossible!

MARIE

Impossible!

ELLA

Impossible!

MARIE

Impossible!

ELLA & MARIE

Impossible!

ELLA

But if you could be a beggar woman not five minutes ago and now are my fairy godmother, then anything is possible, right?

MARIE

I suppose so

ELLA

You could change it all. You could make it all happen

MARIE

No, but you could change it. You could make it all happen

ELLA

Never. I couldn’t

MARIE

You’re right. It’s all so-

Impossible

For a plain yellow pumpkin

To become a golden carriage

Impossible

For a plain country bumpkin

And a prince to join in marriage

And four white mice

Will never be four white horses –

Such fol-de-rol and fiddledy dee

Of course is

Impossible!

ELLA

But the world is full of zanies and fools

Who don’t believe in sensible rules

And won’t believe what sensible people say

ELLA and MARIE

And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes

Keep building up impossible hopes

Impossible things are happ’ning every day!
