Shrek The Musical Cast - This Is Our Story 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.

SHREK, FIONA & DONKEY
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.

SHREK
And that is how the little ogre came to live on the swamp with a beautiful princess.

DONKEY
And his best friend.

SHREK
And his best friend!

GINGY
And a gingerbread man!

PINOCCHIO
And a very handsome puppet!

SHREK
Okay...

ELF
And an elf!

Fairy GM
And a Fairy Godmother!

WITCH
And a witch!

WOLF
And a cross-dressing wolf!

3 PIGS
Three pigs!

HUMPTY DUMPTY
What makes us special...

PINOCCHIO
What makes us special...

EVERYONE
What makes us special...

HUMPTY DUMPTY
What makes us special...

PINOCCHIO
What makes us special...

EVERYONE
What makes us special...
Makes us strong!

We are witches.
We are fairies.
We are weirdoes.

GINGY
I'm an Aries!

EVERYONE
We're a giant
Whitman's 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 diff'rent
and united.
You are us and
we are you.

This is our story.
This is our story.
This is our story.

GINGY
God bless us! Every one!

EVERYONE
The End!
