A Whole New World Parody

by agirlwithgoodergrammar

A parody of "A Whole New World" from Aladdin that I wrote about the sadness of realizing how much you want to be somewhere, but knowing you can never be. If you can relate to this, hope it helps to know that someone else is experiencing the nostalgia too :)

Yes! Completed a fanfic! This was actually quite fun to write, and it helped to get my thoughts down on paper…even in the form of a song. Enjoy! :)

[Movie playing]
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

[Parody]
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
Science can't hold me back
Undo my past
Step out into a fantasy

A whole new world
But it's a place I'll never know
Cause when I'm way down here
It's crystal clear
that now I'm in my plain old world with me
(Now I'm in a plain old world with me)

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Funny how I can care so much
For people who aren't e'en alive!

A whole new world
(Feeling empty inside)
A hundred thousand things to see
(Knowing that I could never)
Ride like a shooting star
Or come so far
To not go back to where you used to be

A whole new world
Every breath filled with magic
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment, red letter
I'd chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me join this whole new world with you

A whole new world
A whole new world
That's where you'll be
That's where you'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
Just a movie
