[00:00:00] Overture -ORIGINAL CAST RECORDING

[00:00:01] SHREK (voice over):

[00:00:02] Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek,

[00:00:03] who lived with his parents in a bog by a tree.

[00:00:04] It was a pretty nasty place but he was happy because ogres like nasty.

[00:00:11] On his birthday the little ogre’s parents sat him down

[00:00:13] to talk just as all ogre parents had for hundreds of years before.

[00:00:17] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:00:20] Listen son, you’re growing up so quickly

[00:00:21] Growing up, bigger by the day

[00:00:21] FATHER OGRE:

[00:00:27] Although we want you here, the rules are very clear

[00:00:31] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:00:35] Now you’re seven

[00:00:35] FATHER OGRE:

[00:00:36] Now you’re seven

[00:00:38] OGRE PARENTS:

[00:00:39] So it’s time to go away

[00:00:40] FATHER OGRE:

[00:00:46] Your Mama packed a sandwich for your trip

[00:00:51] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:00:52] Your Papa packed your boots in case of snow

[00:00:52] OGRE PARENTS:

[00:00:53] You’re gonna make us proud, no backing up allowed

[00:00:54] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:00:55] Just keep walking

[00:00:56] FATHER OGRE:

[00:00:56] Just keep hawking

[00:00:56] OGRE PARENTS:

[00:00:57] And you’ll find somewhere to go

[00:00:57] It’s a big, bright, beautiful world

[00:00:59] With happiness all around

[00:01:00] It’s peaches and cream

[00:01:07] And every dream comes true

[00:01:15] But not for you

[00:01:37] It’s a big, bright, beautiful world

[00:01:47] With possibilities everywhere

[00:01:47] And just around the bend

[00:01:51] There’s a friend or two

[00:01:51] But not for you

[00:01:51] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:01:52] We’re ugly son which means that life is harder

[00:01:53] People hate the things they cannot understand

[00:01:54] FATHER OGRE:

[00:01:54] And when they look at us they tend to make a fuss

[00:01:55] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:01:56] Burn our houses down

[00:01:56] FATHER OGRE:

[00:01:57] And chase us

[00:01:57] OGRE PARENTS:

[00:01:58] Off our land

[00:01:58] FATHER OGRE:

[00:02:01] It’s important that you find a cozy cesspit

[00:02:03] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:02:03] A place no one would ever dare to tread

[00:02:04] OGRE PARENTS:

[00:02:04] And if they happen by, make sure you terrify them

[00:02:05] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:02:06] If you don’t son

[00:02:06] FATHER OGRE:

[00:02:07] If you don’t son

[00:02:07] OGRE PARENTS:

[00:02:19] Then you’ll surely wind up dead

[00:02:19] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:02:20] Goodbye

[00:02:20] FATHER OGRE:

[00:02:20] Goodbye

[00:02:20] MOTHER OGRE:

[00:02:21] Watch out for men with pitchforks

[00:02:22] SHREK (voice over):

[00:02:22] And so, the little ogre went off and found a muddy patch of swamp land far,

[00:02:24] far away from the world that despised him.

[00:02:25] There he stayed for many years,

[00:02:26] tucked away and all alone, which was just the way he liked it.

[00:02:36] SHREK:

[00:02:43] Keep your big, bright, beautiful world

[00:02:49] I’m happy where I am, all alone

[00:02:58] I’ve got all I need

[00:03:08] So read the stinkin’sign, haha

[00:03:09] Keep your big, bright, beautiful world

[00:03:21] I party on my own anyway

[00:03:32] Doing what I can with a one man conga line

[00:03:33] Yeah, your big, bright, beautiful world

[00:03:34] Is all teddy bears and unicorns

[00:03:38] Take your fluffy fun

[00:03:46] And shove it where the sun don’t shine

[00:03:46] I prefer a life like this

[00:03:47] It’s not that complicated

[00:03:55] Sure I’m fated to be lonely

[00:03:57] And I’m destined to be hated

[00:03:58] If you read the books they say

[00:03:58] That’s why I was created

[00:04:03] But I don’t care

[00:04:04] Coz being liked

[00:04:04] Is grossly overrated

[00:04:08] Who needs a big, bright, beautiful world

[00:04:09] I’ve got my own little patch on the world

[00:04:10] It’s not a big, bright, beautiful world

[00:04:11] But it’s mine

[00:04:12] Alone, it’s mine

[00:04:13] And it’s mine

[00:04:14] All mine!
