Pocahontas 2: Journey to a New World Page #2

someone will say

There's something

they might buy

- Pocahontas, wait!

With pigs to slop

and fish to gut

It ain't exactly heaven but

We thank the Lord

and kiss the ground

For bed and board

in London town

The upper crust

lie fast asleep

But some of us

got floors to sweep

One day's like the day before

- Can't complain

- If there's no war

What a day in London

Everything's for sale

Cabbages and onions

- Look up!

- Who's that That girl up in the tree

It's not a tree

It's moving, see

- Good grief what can it be

- Look there, I swear

- She's flying through the air

She must be wild

- She's just a child

- Pocahontas--

I wish I had her hair

Wouldn't you care to join me, here?

On the ground? This instant?

My heart is pounding like a drum

I can't believe my eyes

- In London people seem to come in every shape and size

- So many paths, I wonder how they find their way

So many signs, I wonder

what they really say

London is everything

I've heard and more

London is nothing

like I've seen before

Music and feathered hats

and roofs that shine

With flags flying higher

than a pine

She seems so sweet

she means us well

- Size 20 feet

- How can you tell

We'll rue this day

You wait and see

What is to be

or not to be

How do they build

their huts so tall

Can this be all one tribe

The things they sell

The things I smell

I never could describe

These cakes taste just like

berries picked this very day

The sound a river makes

still takes my breath

Away

London's as busy

as a hive of bees

Grandmother Willow would

just love these trees

Crowded and loud

but so exciting too

With colours

I never even knew

What a day in London

Nothing strange at all

'Cept a girl with someone

maybe ten feet tall

This day's become a day

no one is likely to forget

A day we'll all remember as

the day two worlds have met

- London is everything I've heard and more

- Such beauty's rare.

- London is nothing

- The strength of ten, I've heard.

- Like I've seen before

- She's won the men, my word!

- A brave young thing, to venture here.

- Music and feathered hats

- And roofs that shine

- It will be an adventure.

- And flags flying higher

- Perhaps some brew to quench your thirst?

- Than a pine

- But not with you-- I saw her first!

What a day in London

History was made

Take away the mystery

then you're not afraid

- We've seen a girl

- I've seen a world

- I never dreamed I'd see

-We never dreamed we'd see

- And what an extra special day Unique in truly every way

- Unique in truly every way

How wonderful this London day

Turned out to be

You!

Well done, Rolfe,

bringing back a heathen as an example.

Look at her.

She sticks out like a sore thumb.

Pocahontas is here as

an emissary of her people.

- A personal guest of the king.

- The king has appointed me...

to lead an armada

against the savages.

Don't tell me you didn't know?

The king wants his gold.

- There is no gold.

- Another barbarian lie.

As soon as the ships

are armed, I set sail...

to destroy the heathens

and reclaim Jamestown for James.

We must stop him!

Warn your king of his lies!

But he wasn't lying.

The parchment bore the king's seal.

What? Then your king's promise

to meet me was the lie.

- A king doesn't lie!

- They cannot both be true.

No. It-It's just a misunderstanding.

It has to be.

I can straighten this out.

Come on.

Are you riding or running?

- Mrs Jenkins!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Gads-me-gracious, is that my Johnny?

Eww!

Eww, Johnny,

you need a bath.

- Oh, oh, Johnny!

- Look at you.

- Oh, you.

- Mrs Jenkins, I would like to introduce Pocahontas.

Pocahontas, Mrs Jenkins.

The Jenkinses have been

with the Rolfes for generations.

- Careful. She's about to put on some tea.

- I'll put on some tea.

Oh! Ooh.

Oh, and Uttamatomakkin.

Ooh, I'll put on

lots and lots of tea.

- I'm off to see the king.

- I want to go with you.

Uh, Pocahontas, the conventions

in England are very complex.

- I must go alone.

- But-- But--

Now, I promise I will arrange

for you to see the king.

- My word as a gentleman. Trust me.

Mm!

Uh-oh.

Mm.

Mm!

I must find a way to warn my people,

to stop this.

Leave it to Johnny.

He gave you his word

as a gentleman, my dear.

You can stake

your life on that.

I didn't exactly

bring the Indian chief--

No, no, no, no. I told you, I would meet

with the chief and no one less.

Knight to bishop three.

- Sire, I gave these people your word you would meet.

- Are we not honour-bound--

-The king is bound to nothing,

when you cannot

fulfil your mission.

You were sent for the savage leader

and yet you bring back a woman.

- A woman! - Your Highness,

she is royalty-- a princess.

She is the daughter of a great chief

who has travelled...

far from her homeland

in the interests of peace.

Meet with her, Your Majesty.

May I suggest she attend

the hunt ball?

Let her go back to Virginia

having witnessed...

the royal might and majesty

of English society.

Sire, she doesn't know

our customs.

- To subject her to this kind of scrutiny

would be-- - I don't understand, Rolfe.

If she's not a savage,

then why shouldn't she fit in?

Excellent idea, Ratcliffe. Rolfe,

you will bring her to the hunt ball.

Prove to me she is as civilized

as you claim, and...

I will stop my armada;

if not, the armada sails.

- But sire--

- It is decided!

Pawn to king!

Check.

-Of all the--

- How did it go?

- A disaster!

- She's invited to the hunt ball!

- Flabberdy-jacks.

You were successful?

When do I see the king?

Our meeting with the king

has been corrupted.

- You're now invited to the hunt ball.

- I don't understand.

Oh, it's a trap!

Ratcliffe manipulated the king!

He's saying that if you're

civilized you can fit right in.

But it's the elite of British society--

etiquette and manners.

There's a million ways you can insult

someone. Believe me, I know.

And if you slip up, just once,

Ratcliffe can convince the king that--

Then I must not "slip up."

I can't learn your ways alone,

but you can help me.

What must I do?

-John Rolfe!

How do I look?

Hm? Oh, lovely...

in your... underwear.

Didn't Mrs Jenkins exp--

Uh, Mrs Jenkins!

Oh, my dear!

Oh, come along, now.

Let's go finish your dressing.

Have no fear

We're all right

- You've got me, dear to see you're a lady tonight

- What seems strange is just new

People change every day

till they find their own way

So can you

And wait till he sees you

after you're dressed

I think the king

will be very impressed

Wait till he sees you

walking with ease

He'll be so pleased

you came down from the trees

You'll be fine

I can tell

- It's a very good sign that you're doing so well

- One more tuck, one more bow

Don't get stuck on that clasp

Johnny's lucky they asked

- You to go

'Cause wait till he sees you

He'll be so proud

Maybe he'll smile

if he thinks he's allowed

Wait till he sees you

there in your curls

John's always had
