I've Arrived Lyrics
Paddington & EnsembleI've Arrived
[PADDINGTON]Dear Aunt Lucy
I'm in London
I am writing to let you know
That the skies are not as sunny as Peru
And it smells a little funny and there's no you
But I know there's a home for me somewhere
With a room big enough for just one bear
After all these years, today's the day
I hear what London has to say
[ENSEMBLE MEMBERS]
Get out the way!
Get out the way!
Get out the way!
[TRAIN STATION STAFF MEMBER]
Passengers waiting for the train to Paris...
Are at the wrong station
[PADDINGTON]
Pleased to meet you
Are you free to help me?
[TRAIN STATION STAFF MEMBER]
I'm too busy
St?p aside
[PADDINGTON]
Could somebody show me wh?re to go?
[ENSEMBLE MEMBER]
Not my problem
[PADDINGTON]
I have travelled miles and miles and miles over the ocean
My suitcase has no clothes but I've packed all of my hopes in
Aunt Lucy said when one door closes
Another one will open
Dear Aunt Lucy
Just you wait and you'll see
That tomorrow starts today
[ENSEMBLE]
Get out of the way!
[PADDINGTON]
Here in London
Every street you walk on is paved with golden marmalade
[ENSEMBLE]
Get out of the way!
[PADDINGTON]
I've been sailing towards the rest of my life
Dear Aunt Lucy
Lucy
Lucy
I've arrived
[TRAIN STATION STAFF MEMBER]
If you need to reach your destination quicker
May I suggest you lie down and roll?
[PADDINGTON]
Everybody seems in such a hurry
[ENSEMBLE MEMBER]
People to see
Shopping to do
Somewhere to be
[PADDINGTON]
No one has the time to say hello
[ENSEMBLE]
We commute in silence without making any eye contact
[PADDINGTON]
But I've just got so many questions
[ENSEMBLE]
Then keep them under your hat
[PADDINGTON]
Dear Aunt Lucy
Just you wait and you'll see
My tomorrow starts today
[ENSEMBLE]
Get out of the way!
[PADDINGTON]
I've been sailing towards the rest of my life
Dear Aunt Lucy
Lucy
Lucy
I've arrived
[JUDY BROWN]
That was the worst trip ever
[JONATHAN BROWN]
Can we go there again, dad?
[HENRY BROWN]
Never
[MARY BROWN]
I just wanted time together as a happy-
[HENRY]
Happy?
[MARY]
-Family
[HENRY]
Hardly
[JUDY AND JONATHAN]
There's not anything as bad
As camping with your mum and dad
[JUDY]
No one wants to see mum swimming naked
[HENRY]
According to statistics
Any benefits of wild swimming
Are outweighed by the risk
Of having lots of fish
Swimming up and nibbling on your dangly bits
[MARY]
I just want a happy life
[JUDY AND JONATHAN]
Happy children
[HENRY]
Happy wife
[MARY AND HENRY, overlapping]
We just need have adventure far away
We just need to get back home
It's like we're sailing towards two separate lives
It's like we're sailing towards two separate lives
[TRAIN STAFF MEMBER]
Next stop, London
[JUDY AND JONATHAN]
London?
[HENRY]
Thank God, we've arrived
[PADDINGTON]
Excuse me
Can you help me
[ENSEMBLE]
Get out of the-
[PADDINGTON]
Thought you might say that
But there must be somewhere I can stay
[ENSEMBLE]
Get out of the way!
[PADDINGTON]
Aunt Lucy said that a long time ago
People were sent here who needed a home
Somewhere in London
There must be someone-
[ENSEMBLE]
No one
[PADDINGTON]
Somewhere-
[ENSEMBLE]
Nowhere
[PADDINGTON]
Somewhere
Someone somewhere, anyone-
[ENSEMBLE]
Go home
[PADDINGTON, spoken]
Home?
I don't have a home anymore...
[HENRY, spoken]
Watch your step
70% of slips and trips happen in transport hubs
[MARY, spoken]
Hello, bear...
[HENRY, spoken]
Uh oh, stranger danger
[PADDINGTON, spoken]
May I help you?
[MARY, spoken]
I don't mean to be rude but what are you doing here on your own?
[PADDINGTON, sung]
My Aunt Lucy sent me across the ocean
Looking for the place to call my home
So far I haven't really made a useful connection
But maybe you could point me in a friendly direction?
[MARY, spoken]
"Please look after this bear."
How about you come home with us?
[HENRY, spoken]
Mary! A bear is the last thing this family needs right now
[MARY, spoken]
Just until we can find the right people to look after you
Would you like that?
[PADDINGTON, spoken]
Thank you
I would like that more than anything!
[PADDINGTON, sung]
Dear Aunt Lucy
I've just found a family
My tomorrow starts today
[MR. CURRY]
Get out of the way!
[PADDINGTON]
Here in London
All the streets you walk on are paved with golden marmalade
[MARY]
He won't stay on the streets tonight
[HENRY]
I can't face another fight
[JUDY AND JONATHAN]
Just agree to disagree
[MARY]
You're welcome to stay
[PADDINGTON]
It's time for me to begin the rest of my life
Dear Aunt Lucy
Lucy
Lucy
Dear Aunt Lucy-
[HENRY]
Lucy?
Who's she?
[PADDINGTON]
Dear Aunt Lucy
Lucy
Lucy
Lucy
I've arrived!
