James and the Giant Peach Original Cast
Right Before Your Eyes
[LADAHLORD]
Come with me to see something strange unfold
Hear the weirdest tale that was ever told
From this rare depiction
Some will swear it's fiction
Yet
Each peculiar twist that I tell is true
And you
Shall see it in plain view
Right before your eyes
Marvel, as magic is on display
Right before your eyes
All might seem tragic, but then it's okay
Poof, a new surprise
Right before your eyes
Buckle up, we're off on a bumpy ride
[ENSEMBLE]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
[LADAHLORD & JAMES TROTTER]
Where a magic spell and a boy collide
[ENSEMBLE]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
