35 My Beautiful Iris
“My Beautiful Iris”
Sung to by a smitten Larry trying to woo a certain shrine maiden
to the tune of “Ma Belle Evangeline”
from Disney’s The Princess and the Frog
[Iris: You’ve had so many other lovers, Lawrence. How can I ever believe that you mean what you say when you claim to love me, now?]
[Larry: Milady, Katty Tom, Banjolina and Keyance, they meant nothing to me! None of them could hold a candle to you! Iris Hawthorne, only you, and you alone have everything I will ever want!]
[Iris: *looks away shyly* I want to believe you… I really do…]
[Larry: If you don’t believe my words, then hear the music of my heart… *strums his lute and starts to sing*]
[Larry]
You mean the world to this guy
My beautiful Iris
So out of my league, I sigh
Yet in her hands, my heart will ever be
So kind, so pure, my beauty queen
Lucent eyes shine so bright
Light up, the night
Could one as perfect as she
Accept a bum like me
The woman of my dreams is thee
Most precious gem I’ve ever seen
Oooh, yeah!
I’d be dutiful
Cuz she’s magical
She has everything
I would need
Milady…
You mean the world to this guy
I love you, my sweet lady
[Iris: Oh, Lawrence…. *stares up into his face with misty eyes* You really did mean all that, didn’t you? ]
[Larry: From my heart to yours. *places her hand over his chest* I love you, my beautiful Iris]
[Iris: And my heart belongs to only you, Lawrence Butz]
*Larris kiss*
