Lyrics

Well, Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam

I was a drab little crab once

Now I know I can be happy as a clam

Because I'm beautiful, baby

Did your granny say, "Listen to your heart"?

"Be who you are on the inside"?

I need three words to tear her argument apart...

Your granny lied!

I'd rather be shiny

Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck

Scrub the deck and make it look shiny

I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck

Just a sec, don't you know?

Fish are dumb, dumb, dumb

They chase anything that glitters

Beginners... Oh

And here they come, come, come

To the brightest thing that glitters

Mmm, fish dinners!

I just love free food (Free food)

And you look like seafood (Seafood)

Well, well, well

Little Maui's having trouble with his look

You little semi-demi-mini-god

Ouch! What a terrible performance

Get the hook! (Get it?)

You don't swing it like you used to, man

Yet, I have to give you credit for my start

And your tattoos on the outside

For just like you, I made myself a work of art

I'll never hide

I can't, I'm too shiny!

Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough

Strut my stuff, my stuff is so shiny

Send your armies, but they'll never be enough

My shell's too tough, Maui, man

You could try, try, try

But you can't expect a demigod

To beat a decapod (Look it up)

You will die, die, die

Now it's time for me to take apart your aching heart

Far from the ones who abandoned you chasing

The love of these humans

Who made you feel wanted

You try to be tough

But your armor's just not hard enough

Maui!

Now it's time to kick your hiney

Ever seen someone so shiny?

Soak it in, 'cause it's the last you'll ever see

C'est la vie, mon ami, I'm so shiny

Now I'll eat you, so prepare your final plea

Just for me

You'll never be quite as shiny

You wish you were nice and shiny
