An Innocent Warrior

(Matthew Ineleo and Sulata Foai-Amiatu and Vai Mahina)

Ou mata e matagi
Ou loto mamaina toa
Manatu atu
Taku pelepele

Pa mai to mafanafanaga
Saolotoga tenei

Maua ai te lumanai
Ki tamafine

Ou mata e matagi

[English]
Your eyes so full of wonder
Your heart an innocent warrior
There’s a task for you
My dearest one
Let it flow over you
This freedom you feel
And your deep thoughts
Our young girl
Your eyes so full of wonder

Where You Are

(Auli'i Cravalho and Christopher Jackson and Louise Bush and Nicole Scherzinger and Rachel House)

Moana, make way, make way!
Moana, it's time you knew
The village of Motunui is
All you need

The dancers are practising
They dance to an ancient song
(Who needs a new song? This old one's all we need)

This tradition is our mission
And Moana, there's so much to do (make way!)
Don't trip on the taro root
That's all you need

We share everything we make (we make)
We joke and we weave our baskets (aha!)
The fishermen come back from the sea

I wanna see

Don't walk away
Moana, stay on the ground now
Our people will need a chief
And there you are

There comes a day
When you're gonna look around
And realize happiness is
Where you are

Consider the coconut (the what?)
Consider its tree
We use each part of the coconut
That's all we need

We make our nets from the fibers (we make our nets from the fibers)
The water is sweet inside (the water is sweet inside)
We use the leaves to build fires (we use the leaves to build fires)
We cook up the meat inside (we cook up the meat inside)

Consider the coconuts (consider the coconuts)
The trunks and the leaves (ha!)
The island gives us what we need

And no one leaves

That's right, we stay
We're safe and we're well provided
And when we look to the future
There you are

You'll be okay
In time you'll learn just as I did
You must find happiness right
Where you are

I like to dance with the water
The undertow and the waves
The water is mischievous (ha!)
I like how it misbehaves

The village may think I'm crazy
Or say that I drift too far
But once you know what you like, well
There you are

You are your father's daughter
Stubbornness and pride
Mind what he says but remember
You may hear a voice inside
And if the voice starts to whisper
To follow the farthest star
Moana, that voice inside is
Who you are

We make our nets from the fibers (we weave our nets from the fibers)
The water is sweet inside (and we taste the sweet inside)
We use the leaves to build fires (we sing these songs in our choir)
We cook up the meat inside (we have mouths to feed inside)

The village believes in us (that's right!)
The village believes (ha!)
The island gives us what we need
And no one leaves

So here I'll stay
My home, my people beside me
And when I think of tomorrow
There we are

I'll lead the way
I'll have my people to guide me
We'll build our future together
Where we are

'Cause every path leads you back to
Where you are
You can find happiness right -
Where you are
Where you are

How Far I'll Go

(Auli'i Cravalho)

I've been staring at the edge of the water
Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try

Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know where I cannot go
Where I long to be

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know
If I go there's just no telling how far I'll go

I know everybody on this island seems so happy, on this island
Everything is by design
I know everybody on this island has a role, on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine

I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
"What is wrong with me?"

See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding
But no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know
What's beyond that line, will I cross that line?

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know
How far I'll go

We Know The Way

(Lin-Manuel Miranda and Opetaia Foa'i)

[Opetaia Foa'i]
Tatou o tagata folau e vala’auina
E le atua o le sami tele e o mai
Ia ava’e le lu’itau e lelei
Tapenapena

[Opetaia Foa'i]
Aue, aue
Nuku i mua
Te manulele e tataki e
Aue, aue
Te fenua, te malie
Nae ko hakilia mo kaiga e

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
We read the wind and the sky when the sun is high
We sail the length of the seas on the ocean breeze
At night, we name every star
We know where we are
We know who we are, who we are

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
Aue, aue
We set a course to find
A brand new island everywhere we roam
Aue, aue
We keep our island in our mind
And when it's time to find home
We know the way

[Lin-Miranda Miranda]
Aue, aue
We are explorers reading every sign
We tell the stories of our elders in a never-ending chain
Aue, aue
Te fenua, te malie
Na heko hakilia
We know the way

How Far I'll Go (Reprise)

(Auli'i Cravalho)

[MOANA]
There's a line where the sky meets the sea and it calls me
But no one knows, how far it goes
All the time wondering where I need to be is behind me
I'm on my own, to worlds unknown

Every turn I take, every trail I track
Is a choice I make, now I can't turn back
From the great unknown where I go alone
Where I long to be

See her light up the night in the sea, she calls me
And yes I know that I can go
There's a moon in the sky and the wind is behind me
Soon I'll know how far I'll go

[Thanks to sisterdark for correcting these lyrics]

You're Welcome

(Dwayne Johnson)

Okay, okay
I see what's happening yeah

You're face-to-face with greatness and it's strange
You don't even know how you feel, It's adorable!
Well it's nice to see that humans never change
Open your eyes, let's begin

Yes it's really me, It's Maui! Breathe it in
I know it's a lot, the hair, the bod!
When you're staring at a demigod

What can I say except "You're welcome"
For the tides, the sun, the sky
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome
I'm just an ordinary demi-guy!

Hey, what has two thumbs and pulled up the sky
When you were waddling ye high? This guy!
When the nights got cold, who stole you fire from down below? You're looking at him, yo!

Oh, also I lasso'd the sun, you're welcome
To stretch your days and bring you fun
Also, I harnessed the breeze
You're welcome, to fill your sails and shake your trees

So what can I say except you're welcome?
For the islands I pulled from the sea
There's no need to pray, it's okay, you're welcome
I guess it's just my way of being me

You're welcome, you're welcome
Well, come to think of it

Kid, honestly I can go on and on
I can explain every natural phenomenon
The tide, the grass, the ground
Oh, that was Maui just messing around
I killed an eel, I buried its guts
Sprouted a tree, now you've got coconuts
What's the lesson? What is the takeaway?
Don't mess with Maui when he's on the breakaway
And the tapestry here in my skin
Is a map of the victories I win
Look where I've been I make everything happen
Look at that mean mini Maui just tippity tappin'

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, Hey!

Well anyway, let me say you're welcome!
For the wonderful world you know
Hey, it's okay, it's okay you're welcome!
Well, come to think of it, I gotta go

Hey, it's your day to say you're welcome!
'Cause I'm gonna need that boat
I'm sailing away, away, you're welcome!
'Cause Maui can do anything but float

You're welcome, you're welcome

And thank you!

Shiny

(Jemaine Clement)

Well, Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam
I was a drab little crab once
Now I know I can be happy as a clam
Because I'm beautiful, baby

Did your granny say listen to your heart
Be who you are on the inside
I need three words to tear her argument apart
Your granny lied!
I'd rather be

Shiny
Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck
Scrub the deck and make it look

Shiny
I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck
Just a sec!

Don't you know
Fish are dumb, dumb, dumb
They chase anything that glitters (beginners!)

Oh, and here they come, come, come
To the brightest thing that glitters
Mmm, fish dinners

I just love free food
And you look like seafood (seafood)

Well, well, well
Little Maui's having trouble with his look
You little semi-demi-mini-god
Ouch! What a terrible performance
Get the hook (get it?)
You don't swing it like you used to, man

Yet I have to give you credit for my start
And your tattoos on the outside
For just like you I made myself a work of art
I'll never hide; I can't, I'm too

Shiny
Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough
Strut my stuff; my stuff is so

Shiny
Send your armies but they'll never be enough
My shell's too tough

Maui man, you could try, try, try
But you can't expect a demi-god
To beat a decapod (look it up)

You will die, die, die
Now it's time for me to take apart
Your aching heart

Far from the ones who abandoned you
Chasing the love of these humans
Who made you feel wanted
You tried to be tough
But your armour's just not hard enough

Maui
Now it's time to kick your
Hiney
Ever seen someone so

Shiny
Soak it in 'cause it's the last you'll ever see
C'est la vie mon ami
I'm so

Shiny
Now I'll eat you, so prepare your final plea
Just for me
You'll never be quite as
Shiny
You wish you were nice and
Shiny

Logo Te Pate

(Olivia Foa'i and Opetaia Foa'i and Talaga Steve Sale)

Ke manatua

[English]
Do you remember
When we did all that
the sway
the energy
expressed in the dance

Do you remember
When we did all that
the joy and sweetness
expressed in the dance

come on let’s go
Give me your hand
come on let’s go
come let’s dance
come on let’s go
give me your hand
come on let’s go
you are the only one that I wish for

Round and round spinning round
Hey my head’s getting dizzy
Round and round spinning round
do it again it’ll soon clear

Smile my way
Keep on dancing
listen to the pate
and keep on swaying

I Am Moana (Song of the Ancestors)

(Auli'i Cravalho and Rachel House)

I know a girl from an island
She stands apart from the crowd
She loves the sea and her people
She makes her whole family proud
Sometimes the world seems against you
The journey may leave a scar
But scars can heal and reveal just
Where you are
The people you love will change you
The things you have learned will guide you
And nothing on earth can silence
The quiet voice still inside you
And when that voice starts to whisper
Moana, you've come so far
Moana, listen
Do you know who you are?

Who am I?
I am a girl who loves my island
I'm the girl who loves the sea
It calls me
I am the daughter of the village chief
We are descended from voyagers
Who found their way across the world
They call me
I've delivered us to where we are
I have journeyed farther
I am everything I've learned and more
Still it calls me
And the call isn't out there at all, it's inside me
It's like the tide; always falling and rising
I will carry you here in my heart you'll remind me
That come what may
I know the way
I am Moana!?

Know Who You Are

(Auli'i Cravalho and Matthew Ineleo and Olivia Foa'i and Opetaia Foa'i and Vai Mahina)

I have crossed the horizon to find you
I know your name
They have stolen the heart from inside you
But this does not define you
This is not who you are
You know who you are

---

We Know The Way (Finale)

(Lin-Manuel Miranda and Opetaia Foa'i)

[All & Lin-Manuel Miranda]
Aue aue
We set a course to find
A brand new island everywhere we roam
Aue aue
We keep our island in our mind
And when it's time to find home, we know the way

[All & Opetaia Foa'i]
Aue aue
We are explorers reading every sign
We tell the stories of our elders in a never-ending chain
Aue aue
Te fenua, te malie
Na heko hakilia
We know the way

How Far I'll Go (Alessia Cara Version)

(Alessia Cara)

I've been standing at the edge of the water
'Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try

Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I can not go
Where I long to be

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go

Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh

I know, everybody on this island seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
I know, everybody on this island has a role on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine

I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?

See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding
But no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know, what's beyond that line, will I cross that line?

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, how far I'll go

You're Welcome (Jordan Fisher/Lin-Manuel Miranda Version)

(Jordan Fisher)

I see what's happening here
You're face-to-face with greatness and it's strange
You don't even know how you feel, it's adorable
It's nice to see that humans never change

Open your eyes, let's begin
Yes it's really me, breathe it in
I know it's a lot, the hair, the bod
When you're staring at a demigod

So what can I say except "You're welcome"
For the tide, the sun, the sky
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome
I'm just an ordinary demi-guy

What can I say except "You're welcome"
For the tide, the sun, the sky
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome
I'm just an ordinary demi-guy

Honestly, I can go on and on
I could explain every natural phenomenon
The tide, the grass, the ground
Oh, that was me I was messing around
I killed a snake, I buried its guts
Sprouted a tree, now we've got coconuts
What's the lesson? What is the takeaway?
Don't mess with Maui when he's on the breakaway
And the tapestry here in my skin
Is a map of the victories I win
Look where I've been I make everything happen
Look at that mean mini Maui just tikkity tappin'
Singing and scratchin'
Flipping and snappin'
People are clappin', hearing me rappin'
Bring the chorus back in

Well anyway, let me say you're welcome
For the wonderful world you know
Hey, it's okay, it's okay you're welcome
Well, come to think of it, I gotta go
Hey, it's your day to say you're welcome
'Cause I'm gonna need that boat
I'm sailing away, away, you're welcome
'Cause Maui's the ultimate god woah
You're welcome, you're welcome

Unstoppable (Outtake)

(Lin-Manuel Miranda)

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
Abandoned by his parents and raised by the gods
Who could see he was destined for greatness
Though he was no bigger than you or me as a baby
He was a demigod!

[Ensemble]
Wow!

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
With lightning speed!
And he gave our people all the things we need, yes indeed
We were crawling on the ground
He looked around and said, "You need a little more space!"
And he raised the sky
So we could walk, so we could fly!

[Ensemble]
We were crawling on the ground
He looked around and said, "You need a little more space!"
And he raised the sky
So we could walk, so we could fly!

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
We were walking in the dark
'Til Maui found a spark, down in the Underworld
He climbed up higher and higher
Bringing the gift of fire

[Ensemble]
We were walking in the dark
'Til Maui found a spark, down in the Underworld
He climbed up higher and higher
Bringing the gift of fire

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
When Maui was around, we were unstoppable
We shattered all the rules, ran free
We tore down every wall
And we answered the call of the sea

We used to sail with gods, we were unstoppable
To islands, we could go explore
With every breaking dawn
Our adventures would go on beyond the shore

Maui taught us how to see the waves
Maui taught us how the sea behaves
Maui taught us how to see the skies
How to see the way the seagull flies

Maui taught us how the stars can guide us
The secrets that the ocean can provide us
How to see our way through wind and rain
And know the way back home is there inside us

We ran the world, we were unstoppable
We learned to sail the seas alone
With every escapade
We were brave and unafraid of the unknown

We gathered up our strength, we were unstoppable
We chased the long horizon line
We faced tremendous odds
But we rumbled with the gods, and we were fine

Hey, master of disguise
He could assume any form, any shape or size
He used to fight fantastic monsters
Take them by surprise

[Ensemble]
Master of disguise
He could assume any form, any shape or size
He used to fight fantastic monsters
Take them by surprise

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
Until the fateful night
The only time he ever lost a fight
A thousand years ago
Against a demon named...

[Ensemble]
Tipole...
Tipole...
Tipole...
Tipole...

[Lin-Manuel Miranda]
Tipole was a brutal land spirit. Legend says, she devoured Maui whole, and with the disappearance of Maui came the end of our voyages

The villainous Tipole did the impossible
And Maui, just like that, was gone
Our demigod, our friend, fought for us until the end
And he lives on

For a thousand years, we have made Motunui our home. But there can be a new Maui, a new generation!

I am Moana, I am unstoppable
I know how big the world can be
If Maui lives in you
We can sail across the blue unending sea

Ready for what's next, we are unstoppable
We want to see the world beyond the shore
For Maui years ago
Taught us everything we know, so let's explore!

We want more
We want more
We want more!
Unstoppable!

More (Outtake)

(Marcy Harriell)

[MOANA]
I count the steps from one end of my island to the other
Its 100 steps from where I sleep to the sea
And when I say I've learned all there is to know
Well there's another little island lesson
Gramma Tala shows me

I know where I am from the scent of the breeze
The ascent of the climb
From the tangle of the trees
From the angle of the mountain
To the sand on our island shore
I've been here before

There's gotta be more
I know there's more, there's always more
Someday I'll be out on the sea
And I'm gonna see more
Yes, there's gotta be more
I know there's more, there's always—

[VILLAGERS]
Moana, slow down

[MOANA]
Sorry! I'm always in somebody's way
They do the same thing every day
They work, they eat, they sleep, they pray
They tell me


[MOANA and VILLAGERS]
"Moana calm down"

[MOANA]
That's all they ever seem to say
The other kids just dance and play
How can you play? There's so much out there to explore

[CHIEF TUI]
She stares at the sky, she stumbles down the beaches
She mumbles all the names that her Gramma Tala teaches

With one foot here and another in the distant past
(MOANA: And I wanna soar)
[SINA]
She's growing up too fast (MOANA: So much to explore)

[MOANA]
Like I said before
There's gotta be more
I know there's more, there's always more
One day I'll be brave and sail on the wave
That leads me to more

There's gotta be more
I know there's more, there's always more
My father the Chief, says "Don't cross the reef"
But oh every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back to the sea
I'm standing at the edge of the sea
As they all say

[MOANA and SINA]
"Moana slow down, Moana dream small, Moana don't drown"

[MOANA]
Can you drown at the call of the sea?
'Cause I can hear it calling me

[ANCESTORS]
Aue, aue

[MOANA]
A thousand years ago, we used to sail to distant islands
A thousand years ago, Maui spoke to the sea
So maybe, just maybe, I was born to break the silence
I know my story could be extraordinary
I know my story doesn't end at the shore

There's gotta be more
I know there's more, there's always more
I'm gonna break through, and find something new
I'm gonna find more

There's gotta be more
I know there's more, there's always more
One day I'll decide to roll with the tide
And I'm gonna see

[VILLAGERS]
Moana stand tall

[MOANA]
I will cross the divide, I will ride
I will see what's on the other side

[VILLAGERS]
Moana stand proud

[MOANA]
With the ocean as my guide, on the tide
I will go where no one's ever been before
There's always more

---

More (Reprise - Outtake)

(Marcy Harriell)

She showed me day after day
How to find my way
She taught me how to rely
On the wind and sky
She named me after the sea
She believed in me
I know we use to be bold
From the tales she told
I know she left me prepared
From the things she shared
There was more she wanted to see

Staring at the barrier together on the shore
We practice all the names of everyone who came before me
Voyagers, warriors, ancestors in our line
Their blood runs in mine

She always mean more
She hungered for more
She taught me more
And somehow I know
She'd want me to go

To navigate, you have to keep your island in your mind
You'll know what lies ahead if you remember what's behind you
Want to find the answers to the questions that you still don't know
You just have to go, find more

I wanna know more
There's always more
How can I stay
She taught me the way

Every turn I take
Every trail I track
Every path I make
Every road leads back to the sea
I am sailing to the edge of the sea
And it calls me
Moana go now
Moana don't stall
Don't worry about how
Just answer the call of the sea
There's nothing there holding me

If I had time
I'd say goodbye

I will cross the divide, I will ride
I will see what's on the other side
With the ocean as my guide, on the tide
I will go where no one's ever been before
There's always more

Warrior Face (Outtake)

(Lin-Manuel Miranda)

[MAUI]
We've got a job to do
We need to survive
So you're afraid, good–
That means you're alive
No matter what we face
We run the show
Its time to use your face
To let em know
Now take your fear, pain, joy, rage
Mix 'em up together into something that the world still hasn't seen

[MOANA]
What do you mean?

Warrior face
Show 'em you mean business
With your warrior face
Put 'em all in line
When you face challenges and dangers
You fix your face to face the world
Prepare your face to face the world

[MOANA]
Wah!

[MAUI]
Lower

[MOANA]
Wah!

[MAUI]
Stronger

[MOANA]
Ha!

[MAUI]
Come on, Moana

[MOANA]
HA!

[MAUI]
Better
Now make a face that puts the bad guys in their place
'Til they regret the decisions they made that day
That led to standing in your way
Hey

Warrior face
Teach 'em there's no foolin'
With your warrior face
Show 'em what's in store
Warrior face
Knock 'em back and school 'em, with the face of a warrior
You have the face of a warrior

Doesn't matter how you feel inside
Don't reveal inside
You keep it real inside
You make a face that makes 'em terrified
You make 'em scared inside
Your teeth are bared, alright
We're getting out of here alive
You gotta help us to survive
You gotta help us survive
We're getting out of here alive
You're gonna help us to survive
With your

Warrior face
'Til it's second nature
Make your warrior face
Sing your warrior song
Oh that warrior face
Time to demonstrate that you've been a warrior all along
You've been a warrior all along

Where You Are (Demo)

(Lin-Manuel Miranda)

Moana, make way, make way!
Moana, it's time you knew
The village of Motunui is
All you need

The dancers are practising
They dance to an ancient song
(Who needs a new song? This old one's all we need)

This tradition is our mission
And Moana, there's so much to do (make way!)
Don't trip on the taro root
That's all you need

We share everything we make (we make)
We joke and we weave our baskets (aha!)
The fishermen come back from the sea

I wanna see

Don't walk away
Moana, stay on the ground now
Our people will need a chief
And there you are

There comes a day
When you're gonna look around
And realize happiness is
Where you are

Consider the coconut (the what?)
Consider its tree
We use each part of the coconut
That's all we need

We make our nets from the fibers (we make our nets from the fibers)
The water is sweet inside (the water is sweet inside)
We use the leaves to build fires (we use the leaves to build fires)
We cook up the meat inside (we cook up the meat inside)

Consider the coconuts (consider the coconuts)
The trunks and the leaves (ha!)
The island gives us what we need

And no one leaves

That's right, we stay
We're safe and we're well provided
And when we look to the future
There you are

You'll be okay
In time you'll learn just as I did
You must find happiness right
Where you are

I like to dance with the water
The undertow and the waves
The water is mischievous (ha!)
I like how it misbehaves

The village may think I'm crazy
Or say that I drift too far
But once you know what you like, well
There you are

You are your father's daughter
Stubbornness and pride
Mind what he says but remember
You may hear a voice inside
And if the voice starts to whisper
To follow the farthest star
Moana, that voice inside is
Who you are

We make our nets from the fibers (we weave our nets from the fibers)
The water is sweet inside (and we taste the sweet inside)
We use the leaves to build fires (we sing these songs in our choir)
We cook up the meat inside (we have mouths to feed inside)

The village believes in us (that's right!)
The village believes (ha!)
The island gives us what we need
And no one leaves

So here I'll stay
My home, my people beside me
And when I think of tomorrow
There we are

I'll lead the way
I'll have my people to guide me
We'll build our future together
Where we are

'Cause every path leads you back to
Where you are
You can find happiness right -
Where you are
Where you are

You're Welcome (Demo)

(Lin-Manuel Miranda)

I see what's happening here
You're face-to-face with greatness and it's strange
You don't even know how you feel, it's adorable
It's nice to see that humans never change

Open your eyes, let's begin
Yes it's really me, breathe it in
I know it's a lot, the hair, the bod
When you're staring at a demigod

So what can I say except "You're welcome"
For the tide, the sun, the sky
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome
I'm just an ordinary demi-guy

What can I say except "You're welcome"
For the tide, the sun, the sky
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome
I'm just an ordinary demi-guy

Honestly, I can go on and on
I could explain every natural phenomenon
The tide, the grass, the ground
Oh, that was me I was messing around
I killed a snake, I buried its guts
Sprouted a tree, now we've got coconuts
What's the lesson? What is the takeaway?
Don't mess with Maui when he's on the breakaway
And the tapestry here in my skin
Is a map of the victories I win
Look where I've been I make everything happen
Look at that mean mini Maui just tikkity tappin'
Singing and scratchin'
Flipping and snappin'
People are clappin', hearing me rappin'
Bring the chorus back in

Well anyway, let me say you're welcome
For the wonderful world you know
Hey, it's okay, it's okay you're welcome
Well, come to think of it, I gotta go
Hey, it's your day to say you're welcome
'Cause I'm gonna need that boat
I'm sailing away, away, you're welcome
'Cause Maui's the ultimate god woah
You're welcome, you're welcome

Shiny (Demo)

(Lin-Manuel Miranda)

Well, Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam
I was a drab little crab once
Now I know I can be happy as a clam
Because I'm beautiful, baby

Did your granny say listen to your heart
Be who you are on the inside
I need three words to tear her argument apart
Your granny lied!
I'd rather be

Shiny
Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck
Scrub the deck and make it look

Shiny
I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck
Just a sec!

Don't you know
Fish are dumb, dumb, dumb
They chase anything that glitters (beginners!)

Oh, and here they come, come, come
To the brightest thing that glitters
Mmm, fish dinners

I just love free food
And you look like seafood (seafood)

Well, well, well
Little Maui's having trouble with his look
You little semi-demi-mini-god
Ouch! What a terrible performance
Get the hook (get it?)
You don't swing it like you used to, man

Yet I have to give you credit for my start
And your tattoos on the outside
For just like you I made myself a work of art
I'll never hide; I can't, I'm too

Shiny
Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough
Strut my stuff; my stuff is so

Shiny
Send your armies but they'll never be enough
My shell's too tough

Maui man, you could try, try, try
But you can't expect a demi-god
To beat a decapod (give it up)

You will die, die, die
Now it's time for me to take apart
Your aching heart

Far from the ones who abandoned you
Chasing the love of these humans
Who made you feel wanted
You tried to be tough
But your armour's just not hard enough

Maui
Now it's time to kick your
Hiney
Ever seen someone so

Shiny
Soak it in 'cause it's the last you'll ever see
C'est la vie mon ami
I'm so

Shiny
Now I'll eat you, so prepare your final plea
Just for me
You'll never be quite as
Shiny
You wish you were nice and
Shiny
