Elena of Avalor - The Right Thing to Do
"S02E08 - Shapeshifters"
-Lyrics
[Elena: That's all great. But, I can't just sit here and do nothing.]
[Esteban: Nothing? You will be ruling.]
[Elena: Then I rule I go after Shuriki. It's the right thing to do.]
Elena:
I've gotta leave right away, that's the right thing to do
Gotta do this today, gotta see this thing through
Don't believe me? okay, I'll explain it to you
Why my joining the fray is the right thing to do
Please take a second to inspect my crown her por favor
Means I'm expected to protect the shores of Avalor
I gotta keep things in check, I can't leave my Kingdom a wreck
Hey, I adore you, but before you go and interject
It's up to me to detect this wicked sorceress
So step aside and let the princess tidy up this mess
[Naomi: Uh, what's happening?]
[Esteban: Elena...]
Esteban:
You have impressed me with your zest To leap into the unknown
But I suggest we keep the princess safely home on the throne
With all due respect, we should reject her request
Send patrols of our best soldiers to go out on this quest
See, leaders lead and then they let their subjects handle the rest
She can stay and rule while they fight this duel at her behest
And make the arrest
I am sure you all see that's the right thing to do
Just take it from me when I say this is true
We can't let her set out on this dangerous pursuit
Let's make a decree it's the right thing to do
Elena:
Yeah, I don't think it's sinking in so let me make myself clear
Won't make excuses or refuse to face a danger so near
The situation's severe, the nation's in fear
I'll intercept her with my scepter and make her disappear
Esteban:
Well, if you prevail you will be hailed, but not so much if you fail
We'll be flailing and frail Like a boat with no sail
Think of what that will mean, better to not intervene
We must curtail her lest her failure, cost the Kingdom it's Queen
Elena:
Don't listen to him It's the right thing to do
I am going to win I will tame this old shrew
Esteban:
But what if she bites off more than she can chew
Don't give in to her whim it's the right thing to do
Elena:
For as long as I live I know I'll ever forgive her
And no way will I rest until the day I deliver A sliver of justice
For what this corrupt witch has taken from me
You just wait and see
Esteban:
You have made your demands, but don't you get too excited
Your fate's in their hands, now they get to decide
So take a seat Take a note, I'll be sure not to gloat
Because I call for the Council to put up a vote
[Esteban: All those in favor of Elena not hunting for Shuriki and not leaving the castle until Shuriki is caught, please raise your hands.]
[Elena: Hold on. This wasn't about me being stuck in the castle.]
[Esteban: It is now.]
[Luisa: It's for your own safety, mijita.]
[Naomi: Sorry, Elena.]
Elena:
You're gonna leave me at home while Shuriki roams free
Let the guards take the fall instead of calling on me
Keep me cooped up in here Just to sit back and stew
Well, you blew it, I'm through
Cause this wasn't the right thing to do
The right thing to do
