Arabian nights

In a faraway place,
Lies a land filled with mystery,
Enchantment, suspense and fear.
Where the camels roam
And where lies my home,
In a place called Agrabah dear.

Where the wind's from the east,
And the sun's from the west,
And the sand in the glass is right,
When the hours just might,
Have a glorious sights,
To display during Arabian nights.

The land is a dustbowl,
It feels like a furnace
When you walk on dunes with bare feet.
So people use camels,
Those little smart mammals
Protect you from the shocking heat.

Oh I come from a land
Where intrigue is in style
And risk taking's status quo.
Where flying carpets bide,
In a land filled with pride,
That was founded long, long ago.

Where Genies pop out
Of year old lamps
And where thieves and vandals thrive.
Where people are prejudiced,
against us old stealers,
But hey, at least we're alive!

In a faraway place,
Lies a land filled with mystery,
Enchantment, suspense and fear.
Where the camels roam
And where lies my home,
In a place called Agrabah dear.

    I mean... OOPS

    I meant to put "Based off Aladdin" Instead of "From Aladdin" (That means I didn't copy it lol)
