She could marry anyone in the whole of Chima, would Li'Ella. And never mind Laval, his heart and soul belong to Eris and to her alone. So why in the name of Mount Cavora would that lioness want with a vicious good-for-nothing like me...?

Why should she choose a she-wolf?
What have I got to give her?
How can this thing,
with white fur and black heart,
set Li'Ella's heart a-quiver?
Why should she want to want me?
How can I win her favour?
And how do I tell her
this deadly young beauty
would lay down her life to save her?
When will she know that I love her?
How do I make her hear me?
Would it be best
if I changed my old ways –
Would she come just a little bit near me?
How can I live without her?
What kind of life would that be?
Not much good, I suppose,
with Worriz, close in tow,
Instead of her caring for me...
This little number follows Windra's appointment with Grumlo, as Windra fights both her feelings and her conscience  on whether to admit straight away her feelings towards Li'Ella. But if she does she'll have to hurry, for time is running out - before Tormak forces Laval down the aisle at sword-point, arm-in-arm with a lioness he doesn't really love, in a marriage neither Lion nor Lioness wish to go through...

This song was based on "Why Should Choose a Scarecrow?" from Worzel Gummidge the Musical, sung by Jon Pertwee; www.youtube.com/watch?v=usDOhA…
