Lyrics

Welcome to Duloc Such a perfect town Here we have some rules, let us lay them down Don't make waves Stay in line And we'll get along fine Duloc is the perfect place Please keep off of the grass Shine your shoes, wipe your face Duloc is, Duloc is, Duloc is a perfect place And here's the man who made it happen That towering colossus of moxie Lord Farquaad Oh, it's you, what a terrific surprise Once upon a time This place was infested Freaks on every corner I had them all arrested Hey, nonny-nonny-nonny-no If you had a quirk, you didn't pass inspection We all have our standards But I will have perfection And so And so Things are looking up here in Duloc (Just take a look) The things I'm cooking up here in Duloc (He likes to cook) A model that amazes A plan with seven phases (Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum) Things are looking up here in Duloc (They're looking up) In Duloc The ladies all look swell (Ah) The men are so dashing (Ah) Thanks to my new dress code The fashion's never clashing Hey, nonny-nonny-nonny-no This castle I have built (Farquaad, Farquaad, Farquaad) Is taller than the cliff tops (Farquaad, Farquaad, Farquaad) A city like a postcard (Farquaad, Farquaad, Farquaad) A monorail and gift shops And so (And so) And so (And so) And so No one from the gutter in Duloc (He's taking aim) Embrace the cookie cutter in Duloc (We're all the same) The upshot is enormous When you can shout (Conform us) Yes, things are (Things are looking up) (Things are looking up) Looking up Here in Duloc Hey, let's hear it for those Duloc dancers Aren't they terrific? Ha, huh, yeah, huh-huh Pow, grrr Come on Heh, hah, ha-ha, grrr Boys? Ha-ha-ha-ha There's no sign of slowing We're growing, we're growing (Look, he's growing) (And growing) (And growing) (Look at him grow) Things are looking up here (We practiced this part both forward and back) (We make one mistake, and we get the rack) Things I'm cooking up here (He taught us to dance with razzmatazz) (He's trained in ballet, flamenco and jazz) My hard work, and my rigor Have made me so much bigger Things are looking up (Things are looking up) Things are looking up Here in Duloc (Ah-ah-ah-ah) Here in Duloc (Ah-ah-ah-ah) Up, up Up, up Up
