Lyrics
I 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'm 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 they're crude
You don't mind that I'm 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 the swamp with a beautiful princess
And his best friend, and his best friend
And a gingerbread man
And a very handsome puppet
And an elf
And a fairy godmother
And a witch
And a cross dressin' wolf
All three pigs
What makes us special (what makes us special)
What makes us special (what makes us special)
Makes us, strong
We are witches, we are fairies
We are weirdos, I'm an Aires
We're a giant different sampler here to try
We are puppets, we are rabbits
We are hobbits with bad habits
We're a screwy but delighted crazy stew
We are different and united
You are us and we are you
This is our story
This is our story
This is our story
God bless us, everyone
