Lyrics This Is Our Story (From "Shrek the Musical") - The Silver Screen Orchestra

I've 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 am 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.
You laugh at all my jokes even though their crude.
You don't mind that I am not classy.
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.
And that is how the little Ogre came to live on a swap with the beautiful princess.
And his best friend, and his best friend, and a gingerbread man, and a very handsome puppet, and a boy, and a fairy godmother, and a witch, and a mama bear.
What makes us special?
What makes us special?
What makes a special?
What makes us special?
Makes a strong!
We are witches, we are fairies.
We are weirdos, I am an Aries.
We are a giant different sampler here to try.
We are puppets, we are rabbits.
We are hobbits with bad habits.
We are in awesome 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.
