Who I'd Be~Shrek

BEST SHREK SONG EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Shrek]
I guess 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
and 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.

Or I could be a poet,
and write a different story:
One that tells of glory
and wipes away the lies.
Into 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 a verse,
Recite a joke,
with wit and perfect timing,
I’d share my heart,
confess the things I yearn,
and do it all while rhyming.
But we all learn.
But we all learn.

An Ogre always hides
an Ogre's fate is known
An Ogre always stays in the dark
and all alone

So yes I’d be a hero
and if my wish was granted
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 hothouse flower
and carry her away
But standing guard would be a beast,
I’d somehow overwhelm it,
I’d get the girl,
I’d take a 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 ogre's fate is known
An ogre always stays in the dark

[Donkey]
You're all alone

[Shrek and Fiona]
All alone

[Fiona]
So I know
He'll appear
Cuz there are rules
And there are strictures
I believe the storybooks I read
By candlelight

[Shrek]
So yes I'd be a hero
And if my wish were granted
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 hothouse flower
And carry her away

[Donkey]
You need a pal
My calendar's open
You need a friend
You need me

[all]
A perfect happy ending
That's how it should be
