The Voice


Mike Douglas provided the uncredited singing voice for Prince Charming in Disney's Cinderella. adapted Wikipedia, s.v. “Cinderella (1950 film)”


Mike Douglas is a name that you may know

From when he had a syndicated show;

But did you know we also heard this fella

When singing as the Prince in Cinderella?

He voiced the Prince, but when the credits scroll

He doesn’t get a mention for his role, —

An outcome both annoying and alarming

For even the most genial Prince Charming!
