Scuttle: Mermaid, ahoy! Hiya Ariel... Say, whatcha doing up here on the surface? Ariel: Scuttle, I want to write a letter... To a little girl. She wants to know about mermaids. Could you help me? Scuttle: You betcha, sweetie! Ol' Scuttle knows everything about writing letters. Humans are my specialty With all their fancy stuff You want to write a letter? Hey, that's not so tough First, you need a tapplehooper That's what they use to write A ballpoint tapplehooper Would really be outta sight Ariel: Are you sure they write with... tapplehoopers? Scuttle: Absolutely! Ariel: Oh, Scuttle. Scuttle: It's hard to be humble When you know everything I may have an ego But it's under my wing Everyone wants answers No ifs, ands, or buts So I show off politely That's the Scuttle Strut Strut! Do the Scuttle Strut! Strut! This letter-writing stuff is a cinch! Humans do it all the time. Now here's whatcha gotta do... You start out, "Very truly yours" And end it with, "Dear friend" And it between, you say things like "How large the weather's been" Then you stuff it in a bottle A special one that floats Humans only use them For their most important notes Ariel: Like this bottle? The one I found with the letter inside! Scuttle: Sure! Why, you could mail anything in that! It's hard to be humble When you know everything I may have an ego But it's under my wing Everyone wants answers Who, why, where and what So I show off politely That's the Scuttle Strut Strut! Do the Scuttle Strut! Strut! Strut! Do the Scuttle Strut! Strut! It's hard to be humble When you know everything I may have an ego But it's under my wing Everyone wants answers No ifs, ands, or buts So I show off politely (Strut...) That's the Scuttle Strut Strut! Do the Scuttle Strut Strut! Now you better hurry home, sweetie. You know what your father would say if he finds you on the surface again. Ariel: Thanks, Scuttle!
