Lyrics of The Princess And The Toad - Thomas Fersen, Emily Loizeau, Moriarty

The Princess And The Toad (original)

The toad is standing on the water lily
La princesse ne veut pas l’embrasser
Le crapaud est sur le nénuphar
The princess thinks that he is so bizarre
Je trouve que ta peau n’a pas l’air très lisse
Pretty please I only need a kiss
Ta langue est si longue qu’elle attrape les mouches
Oh je t’en prie ne sois pas si farouche
Il veut juste un p’tit bout
Un tout p’tit bout d’amour c’est tout
If you kiss me I will marry you
Mon prince ne vous ressemble pas du tout
Un baiser de vous changerait tout
But I could never fall in love with you
Mon bien-aimé ne peut pas être laid
Kiss me please et puis je m’en vais
I’ll close my eyes and I will kiss you once
I never brought my lips so close to love
Il veut juste un p’tit bout
Un tout p’tit bout d’amour c’est tout
In the book the toad did get the kiss
And became a prince
Dans le livre on dit que le baiser
Sur le crapaud si laid
Fit naître un prince de toute beauté
In the song the story’s not the same
La chanson n’est pas tout à fait pareille
When the toad got the beauty’s kiss
Quand la belle eut subi le supplice
Rien n’avait changé sous le soleil
The toad was ugly it was all the same
Un peu déçue la princesse quitte l'étang
The toad was smiling il était content
Il veut juste un p’tit bout
Un tout p’tit bout d’amour c’est tout

(translation)

The toad is standing on the water lily
The princess does not want to kiss him
The toad is on the water lily
The princess thinks that he is so weird
I think your skin doesn't look very smooth
Pretty please I only need a kiss
Your tongue is so long it catches flies
Oh please don't be so fierce
He just want a little bit
A tiny bit of love that's all
If you kiss me I will marry you
My prince doesn't look like you at all
A kiss from you would change everything
But I could never fall in love with you
My beloved can't be ugly
Kiss me please and then I'm leaving
I'll close my eyes and I will kiss you once
I never brought my lips so close to love
He just want a little bit
A tiny bit of love that's all
In the book the toad did get the kiss
And became a prince
In the book it says that the kiss
On the toad so ugly
Brought forth a handsome prince
In the song the story's not the same
The song is not quite the same
When the toad got the beauty's kiss
When the beauty had suffered the torture
Nothing had changed under the sun
The toad was ugly it was all the same
A little disappointed the princess leaves the pond
The toad was smiling
He just want a little bit
A tiny bit of love that's all
