Impossible
For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage
Impossible
For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice
Will never be four white horses
Such fol-de-rol and fiddle-dee-dee
Of course is
Impossible!
But the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don't believe in sensible rules
And won't believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happening every day!
Impossible! (Impossible!)
Impossible! (Impossible!)
Impossible
For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage
Impossible
For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice
Will never be four white horses
(They will!)
Such fol-de-rol and fiddle-dee-dee
Of course is
Impossible!
But the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don't believe in sensible rules
And won't believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happening every day!
Look!
It's possible
For a plain yellow pumpkin
To become a golden carriage
It's possible
For a plain country bumpkin
And a prince to join in marriage
And four white mice
Are easily turned to horses
Such fol-de-rol and fiddle-dee-dee
Of course is
Quite possible!
It's possible!
For the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don't believe in sensible rules
And won't believe what sensible people say
And because these daft and dewy-eyed dopes
Keep building up impossible hopes
Impossible things are happening every day!
It's possible! (It's possible!)
It's possible! (It's possible!)
It's possible! (It's possible!)
It's possible!
It's possible!
Not
really seeing anything on Wikipedia about this song in particular, so
I'll just give you my own thoughts and keep them nice and short.
Cinderella
is probably the only Rodgers and Hammerstein musical I not only like
but can actually sit all the way through...sort of. Either way, it's
safe to say this one tops my list.
Not
only do I love the songs and listen to them fairly often, but I got a
lot of inspiration for Kaylee's story from both this version and the
Disney version. Although "Impossible" is not quite my favorite song,
it's a lot of fun to sing and it seemed one of the easiest to illustrate
for Musical May. I'm a bit more partial to "In My Own Little Corner,"
"The Prince is Giving a Ball," "Ten Minutes Ago," and "Do I Love You
Because You're Beautiful."
