Big Bright Beautiful World Lyrics
[Shrek Voiceover:]Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek, who lived with his parents in a
bog by a tree. It was a pretty nastyplace, but he was happy because ogres like nasty places.
On his birthday, the little ogre's parents sat him down to talk, just as all ogre's parents had for hundreds of years before.
[Mama Ogre:]Listen son, you're growing up so quickly,
Growing up, bigger by the day.
[Papa Ogre:]Although we want you here,
The rules are very clear--
[Mama Ogre:]Now you're seven...
[Papa Ogre:]Now you're seven...
[Both:]So it's time to go away.
[Papa Ogre:]Your Mama packed a sandwich for your trip.
[Mama Ogre:]Your Papa packed your boots in case of snow.
[Both:]You're gonna make us proud.
No backing up allowed.
[Mama Ogre:]Just keep walking...
[Papa Ogre:]Just keep walking...
[Both:]and you'll find somewhere to go.
It's a big bright beautiful world,with happiness all around.
Its peaches and creamand every dream comes true...
But not for you.
It's a big, bright, beautiful world,with possibilities everywhere.
And just around the bend,there's a friend or two...
But not for you.
[Mama Ogre:]You're ugly son,
which means that life is harder.People hate the things they cannot understand.
[Papa Ogre:]And when they look at us,they tend to make a fuss.
[Mama Ogre:]Burn our houses down.
[Papa Ogre:]and chase us...
[Both:]Off our land.
[Papa Ogre:]It's important that you find a cozy cesspit.
[Mama Ogre:]A place no one would ever dare to tread.
[Both:]And if they happen by,
make sure you terrify them.
[Mama Ogre:]If you don't, son...
[Papa Ogre:]If you don't, son...
[Both:]Then you'll surely wind up dead.
[Mama Ogre:]Good-bye!
[Papa Ogre:]Good-bye!
[Mama Ogre:]
Watch out for men with pitch-forks!
[Shrek Voiceover:]And so the little ogre went off and found a muddy patch of swampland, far, far away from
the world that despised him. Andthere he stayed for many years. Tucked away, and all alone...which was just the way he
liked it.
[Shrek:]Keep your big bright beautiful world.
I'm happy where I am, all alone.I got all I need,
so read the stinkin' sign!
Keep your big bright beautiful world.I party on my own anyway.
Doin' what I canwith a one-man conga line.
Yeah, your big bright beautiful worldis all teddy bears and unicorns.
Take your fluffy fun,and shove it where the sun don't shine!
I prefer a life like this--it's not that complicated.
Sure, I'm fated to be lonely,and I'm destined to be hated.
If you read the books, they sayit's why I was created.
But I don't care,'cause being liked
is grossly overrated.
Who needs a big bright beautiful world?I got my own little patch of the world!It's not a big bright beautiful world,
but it's mine! Alone!
It's mine!And it's mine!
All mine!
Story of My Life Lyrics
[Guard](Spoken)
Alright, when I call your name step forward. Pinocchio, the puppet.
[Pinocchio](Spoken)
I'm not a puppet I'm a real boy.(Nose grows and he laughs)
[Guard] (Spoken)
That's your patch of mud down there.
[Pinocchio](Spoken)
Oh, dopped on a swamp. Man, I tell you sometimes being a fairytale creature sucks pine sap.
[Pinocchio]Life is disappointing,Whoa is what I know.Outted by my nose,
That's just how it goes,For poor Pinocchio.
Story of my life,Always doomed to fail.
Cheated by a fox,Swallowed by a whale.
That's the story of my life, oh yeah,That's the story of my life.
[Shoemaker's Elf]Strife is never ending.
[Guard](Spoken)
Peter Pan!
[Peter Pan]Banished from the town
[Guard](Spoken)
Ugly Duckling!
[Ugly Duckling]They dragged me from the pond.
[Fairy Godmother]They pulled my magic wand.
[The Three Little Pigs]They blew our condos down.
[Guard]
(Spoken)Wicked Witch!
[Wicked Witch]Life is but a witch hunt.
[Mama Bear]Mama's in the mud,Mama's in distress.
[Garden Gnome]They ridiculed my hat.
[Three Little Pigs]They said that we were fat.
[Big Bad Wolf]They tore my cotton granny dress,
And called me a hot and tranny mess.
[Guard](Spoken)
Sugar Plum Fairy!
[All]Story of my life.
Booted from ball Told to go away.
[Humpty Dumpty]Tumbled off a wall
[All]That's the story of my life.

[Guard](Spoken)
Have fun you guys
[All]That's the story of my life.

[All]I always dreamed I'd get a happy ending.
[Wicked Witch]And this right here,
Not how it goes.
[All]I always dreamed I'd get an ever after.
If this is it,It blows (x3)
[Pinocchio](Spoken)
This is worse than that case of Dutch Elm Disease I caught in Tijuana.
[All]Story of my life,
All the wasted prayers.All the broken dreams.
[The Three Bears]All the broken chairs.
[All]All the damage done
[The Three Bears]All the busted beds.

Don't Let Me Go Lyrics
DONKEY: Hey, hey, hey! You gotta let me go with you!
You don't know what it's like to be considered a freak!Well maybe you do.
But that's why we gotta stick together!No, no, no! Don't speak, don't speak, don't speak!
Just hear me out! I might surprise you. I'll be a friend, when others despise you.
Don't roll your eyes! Stop with the mopin'. You need a pal! My calendar's open!
I'll bring you soup, when you feel congested.I'll bail you out, when you get arrested!
I got your back, wha-wha-what, when things get scary.And I'll shave it, when it gets hairy!
Don't let me go!Don't let me go!Don't let me go!You need me!You need me!
I'll treat you right, and never get shoddy.If you kill a man, I'll hide the body!
So what do you say' you’re not responding...I think we're bonding!
Don't let me go. Don't let me go.Don't let me go!You need me.
You and me, we belong together.Like butter and grits,Like kibbles and bits,
Like yin and yang,Stern and Trang,
Like Eng and Chang, attached at the hipBut not an old lady hip that might break
I'm gonna be on you like a fat kid on cake!
DONKEY (spoken): Like Cupid and Psyche, like pop rocks and Mikey,
we'll stick together like that Velcro stuff, I'm the fuzzy side; you'll be the spiky.
Ooh! Like little kids and pajamas with those funny things at the bottom, you know, feeties.
Like donuts and' oh, what goes with donuts'
DONKEY: Donuts and diabetes!
Don't let me go!Don't let me go!Don't let me go! Don't let me go!
Hold me! Hug me! Take me, please!Na-na-na-na-na-na, please don't let me go!
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you,
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you!
Don't let me go, Go! Go! Don't let me g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go!
I Know It's Today Lyrics
YOUNG FIONA,(Spoken)
Settle in girls. It's story time! Isn't this fun?It's like a sleep over, but instead of a pillow fight,
There is an insane dragon who incenterates things.Now where were we? Oh right?
(Sung)There's a princess
In a towerOh my gosh, that's just like me
Poor RapunzelNeeds a haircut
But the witch won't set her freeShe passes time by singingLike someone else I know
As years go by she sits and waits?As years go by' Uh ohA torturous existence
I don't remember this part!She wishes she were dead
Skip ahead skip ahead!But in the end Rapunzel finds a millionaire
The prince is good at climbing and braiding golden hair!
So I know, he'll appearCause there are rules and there are stricturesI believe the storybooks I read by candlelight
My white knight, and his steedWill look just like these pictures!It won't be long now, I guarantee!
Day number 8423.I know it’s todayI know it’s today
TEENAGE FIONA:(Spoken)
Oh here's a good one! It's a classic!
(Sung)There's a princess
In a comaGlad it’s her instead of me.
Pretty maidenIn a glass box
How I wonder does she pee?Blah blah blah, poison apple
Boring boring evil queenFiller filler, been there, read that!
Seven shorties on the scene.Skip ahead, skip ahead'
But in the end the princess wakes up with a startThe prince is good at kissing
And melting Snow White's heart!
So I know, he'll appearAnd his armor will be blinding!
As shining as his perfect teeth and manly hoseHe'll proposeOn one knee
And our prenupt will be binding!About time we set the wedding date!
Day number'958.I know it's today.
He'll show up today....
FIONA:...ay...
There's a princessAny princess
Take your pick, they're all like meNot exactly, I'm still waiting
they're living happilyEver after better get here
I want love in seconds flatNo one needs these middle bits
Oops, did I do that'
Cut the villains, cut the vampingCut this fairytale
Cut the peril and the pitfallsCut the puppet and the whale
Cut the monsters, cut the cursesKeep the intro, cut the verses
And the waiting, the waiting, the waiting, the waitingThe waiting!
But I know, he'll appearThough I seem a bit bipolar
And I'm a vandal now as well, though he won't mindI'm a find, I'm a catch
And a very gifted bowler!It won't be long now, I guarantee!
Day number'
Are you there God?It's me Fiona
ALL FIONAS:

This is How A Dream Comes True Lyrics
[Fiona]This is how a dream comes true.
This is how I pictured him.Climbing in to rescue me.
This was always mean to be.
This is how a scene must go.Standing there the light just so.Then you smile and gaze at me.Take my hand on bended knee.
Bended knee.Bended knee!
So even though we only met.Somehow I always knew,
it would look like this When dreams come true.
[Donkey]Shrek!
[Fiona]Hey, what are you doing?
[Shrek]I have to save my ass.
[Fiona]Easy i’m in heels!
I've longed for this my whole life long.and now you’re doing it all wrong!
Got a rope a steed awaits.That’s what every story sates.
Riding over rough terrain.Pass the dragon you have slayed.
You have slayedyou have slayed
[Shrek]Its on my to do list.
[Fiona]This is how I pictured it.
More or less I must admit.Fluttering in my heart.
A life about to start.
I knew this day would come,and you would find your way,At last my dream comes true.
I knew, I knew, I knew,it would be today!
Who I'd Be Lyrics
[Shrek] I thought I'd be a hero, With sword and armor clashing
Looking semi dashing, A shield within my grip Or else I'd be a Viking, live a life of daring
While smelling like a herring, upon a Viking ship. I'd sail away, I'd see the world, I'd reach the farthest reaches
I'd feel the wind, I'd taste the salt and sea. And maybe storm some beaches.
That's who I'd be. That's who I'd be.
I dreamed I'd be a poet, Write a different story, One that told of glory, and wiped away the lies
And to the skies I'd throw it, the stars would do the telling The moon would help with spelling, and night would dot the
'I's I'd write my verse, Recite my joke, it'd fit in perfect timing. I'd share my heart, confess the things I learn, and do it all
while rhyming. But then we learn. But then we learn.
And Ogre always hides, an Ogre's fate is known And Ogre always stays in the dark and all alone
So yes I'd be a hero and if my wish was granted My life would be enchanted, or so the stories say. Of course I'd be a hero, and I would scale a tower And save a hot-house flower, and carry her away
But standing guard there'd be a beast, I'd somehow over
whelm it, I'd get the girl, I'd take my breath, and I'd remove my helmet.
We'd stand and stare, we'd speak of love, we'd feel the stars ascending
We'd share a kiss, I'd find my destiny I'd have a hero's ending, a perfect happy ending.
That's how it would be A big bright beautiful world
But not for me.
[Fiona]An ogre always hides. An ogres fate is known. An ogre
always stays
[Donkey]In the dark and all alone
[Fiona]All Alone
(All at the same time)
[Shrek]So yes i'd be a hero, and if my wish was granted my life
would be enchanted or so the stories say. Of course i’d be a hero and I would scale a tower to save a
haukhouse flower and carry her away![Fiona]
There are rules and there are strictures. I believe the story books i read by candle light
[Donkey]Don't let me go, Don't let me go, Don't let me go
[All]
A perfect happy ending, that’s how.... it.. should be!

Fighting boredom by the hour.Princess lonelyWalking circles

Bare essentialsarmy cot
a hot plate and chamber pot.And every morning I would boil it.
No choice I had no toilet.Just a view of devastationout one window, isolation
in my bedroomand very little headroom
Twenty years I sat and waitedI'm very dedicated
On the walls the days were addedLuckily those walls were padded
so...
I think I got you beatI think I got you beat
yeah, yeah yeeeaaahh,I think I got you beatI think I got you beat.
SHREK:(spoken)Oh you think so. That was a sad story but
I've heard better I'm just sayingA for effort thanks for playingSad to see a princess suffer
But I had it rougherLike that time a mob with torchers burned my britches
See the scorchesYou're just whiney
I had a flaming hiney
As I fled I had to wonderIf I were torn asunder
Would an ogre go to HeavenDid I mention I was seven?
So...I think I got you beat. yeah, yeah, yeah
I think I got you beat.I think I got you beat.
FIONA:No warm regards

The Ballad of Farquaad Lyrics
FARQUAAD (spoken)
My father simply couldn't accept that I wanted nothing to do with the family business...that lowly,
dirty family business...
(Sung)My daddy was a miner
So he wasn't much aroundForaging for diamonds
A life spent underground
Daddy didn't talk muchHe barely said hello
He'd simply mutter "Heigh ho"And off to work he'd go
Daddy was grumpy...
My momma was a princessWho left her crown behind
Daddy was her true love, soMomma didn't mind
I never knew my mommaBut she could've been a queenShe married way beneath her...
Beneath her knee, I mean
Ohhh, daddy's bed was lumpySo mommy couldn't sleep
Daddy built a new oneSo tall and so steep
Twenty-five mattresses she slept uponOne night she rolled over...
And momma was gone
So daddy was grumpy...
Me and my old manA tale as old as dirt
A bitter distant fatherIn a tiny undershirt
Daddy up and left meLeft me good as dead
Now he lives in squalorSleeping seven to a bed
(spoken)You abandoned me in those woods, daddy.
Well I crawled out! And up! Oh, if only you could see me now, daddy...I'd invite you to the wedding but you have to be
THIS tall to get in! Hahahahahaha!
(sung)My bride-to-be is gorgeous
Her wedding dress, designerThe guest list will be major
Without a minor miner
GuardsLa la la la la la la la la la la la la
FARQUAADPacks of royal lackeys
Playing violin
GUARDSStrings of royal underlings
FARQUAAD & (GUARDS)
Who will not let you in!Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha!Tricked out carriage!(Tricked out carriage)
Twenty stallions!(Twenty stallions)
With a coachman named Raoul (With a coachman named Raoul)
Big reception!(Big reception)
With a boy band!(With a boy band)
And a royal deejay by the pool...
Yes! I can see my futureAnd so it shall be done
It's total dominationWith some torture just for fun, hee hee!
'Cause I will have my wedding And I will have a queen!And once I get that crown on
You will get the guillotine
And I'll punish you daddy'Cause I'm all grown up And bigger than you'll ever know!
You're gonna pay daddy!It's any day daddy!
I'm off to workHeigh ho!
Make A Move Lyrics
[Donkey]There's something going on around here
I've been watching and the signals are clearA nervous laugh when she brushes his skin
The sweaty palms, the big dopey grinHmmm Hmmm Hmmm
With a giggle and a flip of her hairI smell the pheromones in the air
Making goo goo eyes over their foodThey need my help here in setting the mood
(Oh you don't believe love is blind'Well I got some friends who think otherwise. And here they are. Direct from my
imagination)
[Three Blind Mice]Three Blind Mice
[Donkey]Watch your step girls
[Three Blind Mice]Three Blind MiceSee how they run
[Donkey]You got to turn up the heatYou got to butter the pan
[Donkey with Mice]You got to make a move and don't be afraid
[Donkey]Reach for her hand
And maybe give her a kiss
[Donkey with Mice]She's waiting for a move to be made
[Donkey]You got to
[Mice]Got to
[Donkey]Got to
[Mice]Got to
[Donkey]Got to
[Mice]Got to yea
[Donkey]You got to make a move

When Words Fail Lyrics
[Shrek]Princess.. I..
How's it going first of all'Good'
Uh, it's good for me too.I'm okay
I picked this flowerRight over thereIs where it grew
And I don't really like itBut it made me think of you
Because it's prettyIs what I'm trying to sayAnd you are also prettyBut I like you anyway
So please accept this flowerWith its petals and a stem
Which represent my feelingsAnd tells you how..
(Spoken)Oh man I'm in trouble
When words failWhat will I do'
When words failHow will she know how I feel'
When words failWill I fail too'
Hello fair princessOh look the moon
Is out tonightYou remind me of that moonBecause it's big and bright
And by big I don't mean chubby
Obviously you're not fatBut your personality is biggish
Is what I meant by that
Sorry 'bout that fat thing,I'm on the hefty side myself
I have to blame the gene poolWhich reminds me of'
Oh where I am going with this
When words failWhat will I do'
When words failHow will she know how I feel'
When words failWill I fail too'
Do I have a snowball's chance'Are my prospects just too grim'I spent my life stuck in the mudNow I'm crawling out on a limb
If words failShe'll know what I mean
If words failShe'll just take my hand
She sees me like no one else hasIf words fail
She'll understandShe'll understand
Morning Person (Reprise) Lyrics
[Fiona]Good morning dawn
Good morning dayGood morning Morning Dove
I had a long and sleepless nightPondering true love
My fairy taleI know so well
Must somehow gone awryLooks may be deceiving but,
Feelings cannot lie.Do I love him?
Last night I was uncertainBut this morning
This morningThis morning
(Spoken) Shrek, thank goodness. There is something I have to tell you.
[Shrek]You don’t have to tell me anything I heard enough last
night [Fiona]
Oh, you heard what I said?[Shrek]
Every word! Especially, Who could love such a hideous ugly beast?
Gonna Build A Wall Lyrics
Shrek
I'm gonna build me a wall; I'll make it ten feet high.
See ya later pal, bye bye.No one gettin' in so don't you even try.
A ten foot wall..
I'm gonna build me a wall, I'm gonna disappear.What's the matter pal, am I not bein' clear?
Can't you take a hint; am I getting through at all?Just get outta here..
I was told the world would despise me.So I should have known, I should have guessed.
I thought these two might be different.Well now I know, they're just like all the rest.
I'm gonna be what they want, I'm gonna be what they say.Hey world, I'll do it your way!
You're looking for a monster; it's your lucky day.I'll be what you want..
What a fool to think she might love me.I opened my heart and let her walk through.
She wanted prince charming, I wanted my home back,How lucky both our wishes come true..
Gonna build me a wall, a perfect place to hide.Hey world, stay on your side.
The best way to conquer they say is to divide.
Gonna build a wall.Gonna be what they say.Gonna hide in my heart.
Gonna build a wall...
Freak Flag Lyrics
[GINGY]We spend out whole lives wishing we weren't so freakin' strange.
They make us feel the pain. But it's they who need to change
[PAPA BEAR](spoken)
The way they think, that is.
[GINGY]
It's time to stop the hiding. It's time to stand up tall.Sing hey world, I'm different, and here I am splinters and all!
Splinters and all
[MAMA BEAR]Let your freak flag wave
[PINNOCHIO](Spoken)My what?

Big Bright Beautiful World (Reprise) Lyrics
Shrek:
It's a big bright beautiful worldWith happiness all around.
Its peaches and creamIf a dream comes true.
It's a big bright beautiful worldWith possibilities everywhere.
If true love is blindMaybe you won't mind the view?
I know i'm not the handsome princeFor whom you waited
I don't have a fancy castle,And i'm not sophisticated.
A princess and an ogre,I admit, is complicated.
You've never read a book like this,But fairytales should really be updated.
It's a big bright beautiful world.I see it now, i'll let it in.
I'll tear down a wallAnd clear a spot for two
To be with you.
Finale Lyrics
[Fiona] I waited all my life
Lived it by the book
Now i know that's not my story You take me as i am
Love me as i look Standing here in all my glory
I am sweetness I am bratty
I'm a princess I'm a fatty
I'm a mess of contradictions in a dress I am sassy I am sappy
When i'm with you I am happy
This is my story
[Shrek] You laugh at all my jokes
Even though they're crude You don't mind that i'm not classy
[Shrek & Fiona] We make a perfect pair
Radiant and rude So in love and much too gassy
We are ogres We are scary
We are donkeys We are hairy
We have bold and brand new stories to be told We will write them We will tell them
You will hear them You will smell them
This is our story
[spoken] ...and that is how the little ogre came
To live on the swamp with a beautiful princess- And his best friend! And his best friend!
And a gingerbread man! And a very handsome puppet!
And an elf! And a fairy godmother!
And a witch! And a cross dressin' wolf!
And three pigs!
[sung] What makes us special (what makes us special) What makes us special (what makes us special)
Makes us strong
We are witches We are fairies
We are wierdos I'm an aries!
We're a giant different sampler here to try
We are puppets We are rabbits
We are hobbits with bad habits We're a screwy but delighted crazy stew
We are different And united We are us
And we are you
This is our story This is our story This is our story
God bless us everyone!
The end
More to the Story Lyrics
Fiona:
This is by the book
A picture perfect brideI got my happy ending
In a fairytale the knott must get tied
This is what i dreamedFinally it's real
I knew what i might look likeBut i never thought how i might feel
And there's moreMore
More to the storyWhat you so often see isn't always so
There's moreMore to the story
Now i know
Every princess is a beautyEvery dragon must be cruel
Big goes with badAnd royal goes with beauty
We play our partsWe follow every rule
This is by the bookI knew it from the start
The ogre tries to hurt youBut i never knew they meant in the heart
And there's moreMore
More to the storyWhat you so clearly see
Isn't always so
There's moreMore to the story
Now i knowNow i know
What you so fondly toldIsn't always soThere's more
MoreTo the storyNow i know
This is by the bookI got my happy ending
I'm a Believer Lyrics
I thought love was only true in fairy talesMeant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me (dum dum dum dum dum)That's the way it seems (dum dum dum dum dum)
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.
And then I saw her faceNow I'm a believer.
Not a traceOf doubt in my mind.
I'm in love(oooooo)
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave herif I tried
I thought love was more or less a given thingIt seems the more I gave the less I got, Oh Yeah
What's the use in tryingAll you get is pain
When I needed sunshine I got rain
And then I saw her face,Now i'm a believer.
Not a traceOf doubt in my mind.
I'm in love(oooooo)
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave herif I tried
(the love)
love was out to get (dum dum dum dum dum)that`s the way it seems (dum dum dum dum dum)
dissapointment haunted all my dreams
And then I saw her face,Now I'm a believer.
Not a traceOf doubt in my mind.
I'm in love(oooooo)
I'm a believer,I couldn't leave her if I tried
Then I saw her face,Now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind,Now I�m a BelieverYeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah
