Lyrics
This is the story of Lilo and Stitch. Let's begin now. In a distant
Remote corner of the galaxy, the Grand Councilwoman listened to a
Scientist plead his case. Dr. Jumba described his illegal creation
What you see before you is the first of a new species. I call it
Experiment 626. He is bulletproof, fireproof, and can think faster
Than supercomputer. He can see in the dark and move objects 3,000
Times his size. His only instinct: to destroy everything he touches!
Captain Gantu grew tired of Jumba's antics and had him arrested
The Grand Councilwoman then ordered Captain Gantu to get
Rid of 626 as well. Gantu's crew prepared to escort 626
To a far-off asteroid by securing him in a holding cell
On a transport ship. Just as they took off, 626 broke out
Ready to load. Seal off the deck
The guards tried to stop 626 with plasma blasters
But he charged the guards head-on. In the chaos
626 Seemed to vanish. A frantic search came up empty
I don't think he's on the ship anymore
Confirmed. He's taken a police cruiser
Hyperdrive activated
Engaged his H-drive!
Back at Galactic Control, they tracked 626 as he
Hurtled toward an unfamiliar part of the galaxy
A control operator pinpointed Stitch's destination
A planet called Earth
A giant overhead screen showed the blue
Planet. The Grand Councilwoman smiled
He won't survive in water. His molecular density is too great
Then, tiny islands suddenly appeared in 626's path
We have to gas the planet
Agent Pleakley, an expert on planet Earth, rushed in
Earth is a protected wildlife reserve. We've been
Using it to rebuild the mosquito population
Which, need I remind you, is an endangered species!
Rather than destroy Earth, Jumba was paroled so he could
Anticipate his creation's actions and swiftly apprehend 626
626 Will not come easily. Maybe a direct hit from plasma
Cannon might stun him long enough to restrain him
But the planet's a delicate planet! Who's gonna control him?
Pleakley was given the job. On a small island of Hawaii, a young
Girl, Lilo, swam in the rolling waves. When she realized that she
Was late for hula dance class, Lilo dashed from the water and
Tried, unsuccessfully, to slip into class unnoticed by the teacher
Lilo, why are you all wet?
It's sandwich day. Every Thursday, I take
Pudge the fish a peanut butter sandwich
The other students rolled their eyes
And one girl, Myrtle, taunted Lilo
You're crazy
Lilo lunged at Myrtle, but the teacher caught her
Lilo, maybe we should call your sister
No! I'll be good. I wanna dance. I practiced. I just wanna dance
After class, Lilo forgot to wait for her older sister, Nani
And walked home alone. Not finding Lilo at the hula school
Nani rushed home to find that Lilo had locked herself inside
Lilo! Open the door, Lilo! The social
Worker's gonna be here any minute
Cobra Bubbles arrived in time to see Nani breaking into her own
House. He was evaluating Nani as a guardian for Lilo. Lilo put on
Her best smile and recited the answers she and Nani had practiced
I'm adjusted, I eat four food groups and look both
Ways before crossing the street, and take long naps...
Suddenly, Lilo mixed up what she was supposed to say
Cobra was not impressed. He gave Lilo his business card
Call me next time you're left here alone
As he left, Cobra turned to Nani
In case you're wondering, this did not go well
Nani was upset with Lilo. The two sisters had a big fight
Do you want to be taken away?
Later that night, Lilo questioned Nani
When she returned to Lilo's bedroom
We're a broken family, aren't we?
No. Maybe a little. Maybe a lot. I'll tell you what
If you promise not to fight anymore, I promise
Not to yell at you, except on special occasions
Suddenly, Lilo saw a shooting star and pushed Nani out
Of her bedroom so that she could make a secret wish
It's me again. I need someone to be my friend. Someone who won't
Run away. Maybe send me an angel. The nicest angel you have
Hearing Lilo's wish, Nani sensed how lonely Lilo was and that
She could use a playmate. Lilo did not know that the shooting
Star was actually 626's spaceship crash-landing in a field
Of sugarcane. 626 emerged from the wreckage and walked onto
The road, where he was mowed over by a convoy of trucks
The spikes on his back caused all their tires
To burst. The drivers got out to investigate
There it is! It's jammed under the fender
Next thing he knew, 626 woke up in a kennel without his blaster
Or uniform. Within seconds, he escaped from his kennel cage and
Sneaked out of the building, passing unnoticed by Lilo and Nani
Who were arriving at the kennel to adopt a new friend. Outside
A scorching energy blast narrowly missed 626. He dashed back
To his cage. Just then, Lilo entered to pick out her new pet
Are there any aminals in here?
Recognizing that he would never get out of the kennel alive
On his own, 626 quickly concealed his back spikes, extra
Set of legs, and antennae to look more like a dog. Lilo
Picked him and proudly showed him to Nani. She was shocked
What is that thing? Does it have to be this dog?
Yes, he's good. I can tell. His name is Stitch
I wanna buy him! Can I borrow two dollars?
As Lilo and Stitch left the kennel together
Jumba leapt to capture 626, but Pleakley stopped him
You can't shoot and you can't be seen. Look at you!
You look like a monster. We have to blend in
Nani had to go to work, so Lilo introduced Stitch to her world. It
Was all foreign to him. Stitch kept trying to escape while Lilo
Tried to keep him out of trouble. Jumba, still trailing them, was
Amused as Stitch grew increasingly frustrated
That night, Lilo and Stitch ate at the luau
Where Nani worked. Lilo showed Stitch her drawing
This is you. This is your badness level. It's unusually
High for someone your size. We have to fix that
Lilo barely got her words out before Stitch was off trying to
Steal food from a woman's purse. It turned out to be a Jumba trap
Aha! Look what I find. Get the strips
Pleakley tried, but Stitch escaped again. He caused such a
Commotion that Nani got fired. Lilo eagerly brought Stitch home
This is a great home. You'll like it a lot
Stitch proceeded to destroy anything in his path
Lilo objected when Nani disciplined Stitch
Be careful of the little angel
It's not an angel, Lilo. I don't even think
It's a dog. We just have to take him back
He was an orphan and we adopted him! What about ohana?
Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind
Or forgotten. I know, I know. I hate it when you use ohana against me
Lilo took Stitch up to her room. Stitch
Found an old photo under Lilo's pillow
Be careful of that! You don't touch this. Don't ever touch it
Later, Stitch found a book about an ugly duckling. He was
Curious about it. Lilo explained that in the end, the
Duckling was happy because he knew where he belonged. The
Next day, Nani was startled when Cobra appeared at her door
Heard you lost your job
Stitch ran by and threw a book, hitting Cobra squarely on the head
Hey!
As he left, Cobra told Nani that his patience
With their situation was wearing thin
The next time I see this dog, I expect it to be a model citizen
All that day, Nani dragged Lilo and Stitch along as she interviewed
For jobs. Lilo used the time to teach Stitch about her hero
Elvis Presley was a model citizen. I've compiled
A list of his traits for you to practice
However, as Stitch excitedly practiced such things as dancing and
Playing guitar, he disrupted every interview. When the day drew to
A close, Nani still had not gotten a job. Lilo, Stitch, and Nani
Were sitting quietly on the beach when Nani's friend David walked up
Hey, Lilo. How's it, Nani?
We've been having a bad day
Hey, I might not be a doctor, but I know that there's
No better cure for a sour face than a couple of
Boards and some choice waves. What do you think?
Nani agreed, so they all joined David in the sparkling water. Each
New wave carried them farther and farther away from their troubles
Despite his dislike of water, even Stitch became captivated by this
Sport, and when they returned to shore, he dragged over a surfboard
Asking for another ride. Meanwhile, Pleakley was on his space
Communicator updating the Grand
Councilwoman on the status of their mission
Oh, uh, things are going well. I think they're
Going well. Jumba, aren't they going well?
I would have expected you back by now with 626 in hand
As Lilo, Stitch, and Nani headed out
Into the water, Jumba saw an opportunity
Hang on. We are going swimming
As the trio surfed through the green barrel of a wave
Jumba swam up from underneath. The white water of the
Crashing wave hid Jumba as he pulled Stitch beneath
The tide. Nani and Lilo surfaced and looked around
We lost Stitch!
Stitch struggled frantically and broke out of Jumba's grasp
Before he could reach the surface, he ran out of air
And started to sink. Fortunately, David was nearby
Searching for him. He rescued the waterlogged Stitch and
Carried him up the beach to where Lilo and Nani were waiting
He's unconscious, but I think he's alive
Soon, Stitch exploded back to life, disoriented and fighting
Nani pulled Lilo out of the way, but then noticed that
Cobra had observed the whole fiasco. She tried to explain
This isn't what it looks like
Cobra just shook his head
I know you're trying, Nani, but you need to think about
What's best for Lilo. Even if it removes you from the picture
Defeated, Nani took Lilo in her arms
And started home. David felt heartbroken
You know, I really believed they had a chance. Then you came along
Stitch felt hurt and guilty because he knew that he was to blame
That night, Nani tried to tell Lilo that she was going to be
Taken away. Nani just couldn't find the strength to do it
Stitch returned to Lilo's bedroom and uncovered the photo
Underneath Lilo's pillow. It was a picture of Lilo, Nani, and
Their parents. When Lilo walked into the room, she saw Stitch
That's us before. Our family's little now, but if you want, you could
Be a part of it. You could be our baby and we'd raise you to be good
Stitch took the Ugly Duckling book
And started walking toward the window
Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind
But if you want to leave, you can. I'll remember you though
Stitch walked deep into the forest
Desperately hoping to find his own family
I'm lost
The next morning, Jumba and Pleakley finally made it back to
Shore. The enraged Grand Councilwoman called on the space phone
I have lost patience with you both. Consider yourselves fired and
Prison-bound. Your incompetence is nothing short of unspeakable
Pleakley was shocked, but Jumba was excited
Now we do it my way!
Your way?
Don't, wait!
Meanwhile, the Grand Councilwoman notified Captain Gantu
The mission is in jeopardy. This could be your chance to
Redeem yourself. How soon will you be prepared to leave?
Immediately
Jumba caught up to Stitch in the middle of the forest
Stitch told Jumba that he was waiting for his family
You don't have one. I made you. You're
Built to destroy. You can never belong
Stop!
No, no, no, don't run! Don't run!
Back at the house, Lilo told Nani about Stitch
Stitch left. It's good he's gone. He didn't want to be here anyway
Nani knew it was time for the difficult talk
Lilo, sometimes you try your hardest, but things don't work
Out the way you want them to. Sometimes things have to change
And maybe sometimes they're for the better, even if...
Nani was interrupted when David arrived announcing that
He'd found her a job. Nani excitedly turned to Lilo
Lilo, baby, this is really important. I'm gonna be right
Back. Lock the door and don't answer it for anyone, okay?
Seconds after Nani left, Lilo was shocked to see Stitch burst
Through the dog door. He tried to sneak Lilo out of the house
But Jumba rushed in. Pleakley arrived to see Jumba and Stitch
Fully engaged in a reckless battle. Lilo ran to the phone
Hello, Cobra Bubbles? Aliens are attacking my house
Pleakley was horrified
No, no, no! No aliens! There's no need to alert the authorities!
Stitch found Jumba's plasma blaster, but before he could use it
Jumba plugged the end with a carrot. Pleakley grabbed Lilo and ran
Out of the house. Jumba's plasma blaster exploded, blowing the
House up with it. In town, Nani graciously thanked her new boss when
Sirens stopped her speech. A fire truck raced up the road toward
Her house. She ran home to find the remains of the house in
Smoldering ruins and Lilo safe in the arms of
Cobra Bubbles. When Cobra saw Nani coming, he
Gently put Lilo in his car. Nani pleaded with him
Don't do this. I'm the only one who understands her
You take that away, she won't stand a chance. She needs me
Is this what she needs?While they argued, Lilo slipped out and
Ran into the forest. Stitch crawled from the rubble of the
House and saw Lilo's scorched family photo. Knowing that this
Was Lilo's most valued possession, he grabbed it and went to
Find her in the woods. Lilo ran as fast as she could, trying to
Get as far away as possible. In her path, Stitch popped out
From the bushes and presented Lilo's half-burned family picture
"You ruined everything."
Stitch revealed his true self as he bared
His back spikes, antennae, and extra legs
"You're one of them? Get out of here, Stitch."
Without warning, Gantu's net burst out of the bushes, entangling
Lilo and Stitch. Nani arrived just in time to see Gantu load Lilo
And Stitch onto his ship. Stitch worked his way out of the
Containment pod, but fell from the ship as it
Took off with Lilo still trapped inside. Seeing
That Stitch was an alien, Nani confronted him
"Okay, talk. I know you had something to
Do with this. Now where is Lilo? Talk!"
Before Stitch could answer, a plasma blast struck him
Stitch was stunned long enough for Jumba and Pleakley
To contain him. Nani was shocked to see more aliens
"Where's Lilo?"
Jumba was unsure if he should interact with this human
"Uh, sorry. We do not know anyone by this, uh..."
"Lilo! She's a little girl this big. She has black hair and
Brown eyes and she hangs around with that thing! Bring her back."
"See, problem is, we're just here for him."
"So she's gone?"
Stitch shuffled over to Nani and spoke the words Lilo had taught him
"Ohana means family. Family means
Nobody gets left behind or forgotten."
Everyone piled onto a motorcycle and raced off to Jumba
And Pleakley's hidden spaceship. Once in the air, Jumba
Used his ship to bump Gantu's and sent it spinning out of
Control. Stitch blew the door off of Jumba's ship, was
Sucked out into the sky, and landed on Gantu's windshield
"Little savage! Get off my ship!"
Lilo watched helplessly as Gantu blasted Stitch
Off the speeding ship. Stitch was knocked out briefly
But was energized when he heard Lilo's call
"Don't leave me, okay?"
Just then, Stitch saw a gas tanker driving towards him. He jumped
In, scared away the driver, and drove it into a pool of molten
Lava. When the tanker exploded, it rocketed Stitch toward
Gantu's ship. He crashed through the windshield and rescued Lilo
"You came back."
"Nobody gets left behind."
The ship splashed into the ocean, and David, who was surfing nearby
Helped everyone ashore. There, they were met by Cobra and a
Fleet of aliens. The Grand Councilwoman prepared to take Stitch
Back to prison at once. To her amazement, Stitch wanted to say
Goodbye to Lilo. The Grand Councilwoman demanded an explanation
"This is my family. I found it all on my own
It's little and broken, but still good."
Cobra stepped in
"Lilo, didn't you buy that thing at the shelter?"
"Hey! Three days ago, I bought Stitch at the shelter. I paid two
Dollars for him. See this snare? If you take him, you're stealing."
The Grand Councilwoman made a new proclamation
"Take note of this. This creature has been sentenced to life in exile
A sentence that shall be henceforth served out here, on Earth."
Nani, Lilo, and Stitch were now an official family
The spirit of ohana proved that anyone can belong
Even a little six-legged alien named Stitch
