Martin Short didn't need to go as hard as he did for this movie, but he DID and the Internet is forever grateful for the generous gift of ham he gave us.
I've been bowing I've been scraping I've been lying like a rug And for ten long years I've had to pay my dues But today I am escaping For the last gold has been dug It was waiting there, so how could I refuse? I'm returning home a hero Who's discovered mighty wealth And what better husband could a princess choose? I'm the suitor who will suit her Bring the kingdom back to health And I'll wear the crown, for how could I refuse? Raise every glass And rouse every cheer! Praise that the reign of Preminger is here! Master in charge of all that I see All hail me! And by marrying the princess I get all that I desire Like a moat An ermine coat And palace views Even though she treats me coldly It's a sign of inner fire For inside she's thinking "How can I refuse?" MAN 1 (SPOKEN): Right, except theres one little problem, boss. PREMINGER (SPOKEN): Thats Prince Boss to you! MAN 1 (SPOKEN): Right, the queen decided to marry off the princess to the king of Bahsena. PREMINGER (SPOKEN): What?! Making a decision without me?! Who does she think she is? DUMB MAN (SPOKEN): Uh, the Queen? PREMINGER (SPOKEN): You simpering simpleton! DUMB MAN (SPOKEN): Well, she is the Queen. Shes got a crown and a scepter and sits in her big fancy chair... PREMINGER (SPOKEN): Silencio! No! I wont let go! This peasant son wont turn and run because some reckless royal chose another beau Ah... it's... a temporary setback It's a momentary loss But conviently my ego doesn't bruise And the moment that I get back I will show them who's the boss You can bet your bullion there'll be no "I do's" Yes suppose the girl goes missing And the king says "au revoir" Then I find her Bring her back and make the news Then the queen will be so grateful That she'll pledge the heir to moi And I'll humbly tell her "How can I refuse?" When our ceremony's over I'll arise and take the throne And that nitwit Anneliese can kiss my shoe For the kingdom and the castle will be mine and mine alone If the crown should fit then how can I refuse? ALL: So get ready with the roses and stand by with the champagne When you've got a brilliant plan you never lose Yes before the chapter closes I'll be as big as Charlemagne It's a thankless job but how can I refuse How can I refuse?
The woman from The Island Princess did I can’t remember her name but I know her daughter’s name is Lucianna. Did Lydia from Barbie and the Diamond Castle sing or am I wrong ?

"YOU...SIMPERING SIMPLETON!"
S I M P
Hi
Underrated villain song
Martin Short must have been grateful to star in this masterpiece
I’m sure he is.
He was asked about it comparatively recently and said he doesn’t remember it at all. 😂
@@Longshanks1690really ? I didn’t think Barbie characters voice actors would get asked questions like this or barbie movie related questions at all 😂
Bro they were cooking with this one
This slaps tho
it does tho
Martin Short didn't need to go as hard as he did for this movie, but he DID and the Internet is forever grateful for the generous gift of ham he gave us.
Martin Short was AMAZING as Preminger! ^^
Yes, yes he was.
I've been bowing
I've been scraping
I've been lying like a rug
And for ten long years I've had to pay my dues
But today I am escaping
For the last gold has been dug
It was waiting there, so how could I refuse?
I'm returning home a hero
Who's discovered mighty wealth
And what better husband could a princess choose?
I'm the suitor who will suit her
Bring the kingdom back to health
And I'll wear the crown, for how could I refuse?
Raise every glass
And rouse every cheer!
Praise that the reign of Preminger is here!
Master in charge of all that I see
All hail me!
And by marrying the princess I get all that I desire
Like a moat
An ermine coat
And palace views
Even though she treats me coldly
It's a sign of inner fire
For inside she's thinking
"How can I refuse?"
MAN 1 (SPOKEN):
Right, except theres one little problem, boss.
PREMINGER (SPOKEN):
Thats Prince Boss to you!
MAN 1 (SPOKEN):
Right, the queen decided to marry off the princess to the king of Bahsena.
PREMINGER (SPOKEN):
What?! Making a decision without me?! Who does she think she is?
DUMB MAN (SPOKEN):
Uh, the Queen?
PREMINGER (SPOKEN):
You simpering simpleton!
DUMB MAN (SPOKEN):
Well, she is the Queen. Shes got a crown and a scepter and sits in her big fancy chair...
PREMINGER (SPOKEN):
Silencio!
No! I wont let go!
This peasant son wont turn and run because some reckless royal chose another beau
Ah... it's... a temporary setback
It's a momentary loss
But conviently my ego doesn't bruise
And the moment that I get back I will show them who's the boss
You can bet your bullion there'll be no "I do's"
Yes suppose the girl goes missing
And the king says "au revoir"
Then I find her
Bring her back and make the news
Then the queen will be so grateful
That she'll pledge the heir to moi
And I'll humbly tell her
"How can I refuse?"
When our ceremony's over
I'll arise and take the throne
And that nitwit Anneliese can kiss my shoe
For the kingdom and the castle will be mine and mine alone
If the crown should fit then how can I refuse?
ALL: So get ready with the roses and stand by with the champagne
When you've got a brilliant plan you never lose
Yes before the chapter closes
I'll be as big as Charlemagne
It's a thankless job but how can I refuse
How can I refuse?
Your a god among men and women alike
Best villain song in all of Barbie
(wait...do any other villains ever sing?)
Not that I know of
The lady from The Island Princess did!
Unofficially Laverna sings as well in a stage production of Fairytopia. Lydia from Diamond Castle has a song that was cut from the movie as well.
The woman from The Island Princess did I can’t remember her name but I know her daughter’s name is Lucianna. Did Lydia from Barbie and the Diamond Castle sing or am I wrong ?
Also that little girl from the secret door? She was a villain too
Probably the best Barbie villain... I need to rewatch all the movies before I decide who's the best 😂
i like lydia
No one can be close then preminjer
this slaps 😍
My fav song!!
This is the only song I listen to
