I know they think I’m just a simple man Who always spends his quiet nights alone Hiding away inside the foliage And shutting out the moonlight from the sky I know they say that I’ll always stay the same But baby, I will come for you Stuck in your tower I will set you free Fiona, I promise That I will take you home I will make soft footprints outside my home Outside of the marshlands (Be)cause fate is knocking at my door this time. I know they say that ogres can’t be knights Or kings or save the day But soon they’ll see it’s destiny Baby I will come for you Stuck in your tower I will set you free Fiona, I promise That I will take you home

When they tried to sell me Just for saying what’s on my mind I did my best to fly away I don’t know why Farquaad or his goons Would want a donkey Even if I can speak I was lost for so long Wondering if there’s a place for me But now that I’ve found you I can finally say I’ve made a friend When you came and saved me I knew I’d be right by your side No matter what I’d never leave I know you never show it But I can see your heart of gold, Shrek You know you can’t fool me You were lost for so long Wondering if there’s a place for you But now that you’ve found me You can finally say you’ve made a friend Hey Shrek You can make a brave face But you can’t fool me I know you’re hurting, babe I know you look up at the stars Late at night and wonder if you’re all alone I do too, Shrek It’s okay I’m here now An ogre makes a friend A donkey’s love creeps in An ass is now your friend

Trying to take the princess back, you’re quick to fail. Check my skin, I do it on a bigger scale. Wish you had wings like me, I get higher Cave to the mic booth boy I spit fire. Think she’s going to leave with you? You’re not sober. For you it’s over. She’s not trying to date an ogre. You're ugly. So if you think she’ll truly be released, You’re mixing up your movies. This isn’t Beauty and the Beast. It’s no wonder why you’re panicking. Trying to take Giant Steps, stumbling like Flanagan. I hook the track up, then I get my swag on. I’m a dragon. Your flow just drags on. Despite your production company, you seem cursed. So I’ll be shocked if your little dream works. You’re going to need a doctor to inspect your health. Chiggity Check yourself before you Shrek yourself. Looking in my magic mirror, Out upon the desolate wasteland, Cross the bridge and realize my destiny. One small step for ogres and men, A giant steps to try and make you mine. Once they bring you back home to me, You'll be my queen until the end of time, Yeah, I'm comin' for you. Princess needs a rich man, and you’ve got mild cash. Rolling with a donkey because your whole style is ass. You need some help? Want me to write you a check? I won’t cut you anything unless it’s with these spikes on my neck. What’s wrong little homie? Take a breath, you seem stressed. The princess is doing fine in her little green dress. She’s giving me her love, she doesn’t want you to have it, Because you skin tone is to monochromatic. Wait, on second thought, go ahead and be my guest, And let those treacherous steps put your legs to the test, She’s way up in that tower. If you can get her out, then great, But I can tell by your figure you’re a little out of shape. Her name says it all: If you really want Fiona, I guess you’re going to have to pay a fee to her owner, I’m serious with this, I’m not playing any games, You’re name isn’t Prince Charming so homie stay in your lane. Looking in my magic mirror, Out upon the desolate wasteland, Cross the bridge and realize my destiny. One small step for ogres and men, A giant steps to try and make you mine. Once they bring you back home to me, You'll be my queen until the end of time, Yeah, I'm comin' for you, Not actually me though, I'm sending an ogre to break you out of, That lonesome castle, I know you can't wait to see my giant Steps to the castle, Steps to the castle, I'm comin' for you, To make you mine girl, But Shrek is actually gonna do it for me
