Track #22 - I Think I Got You Beat

Track #22 - I Think I Got You Beat

This track includes:
Shrek
Fiona

[ruthanngeorge]

I’m auditioning for Fiona on Monday and we only have two weeks to put the show together and as much as I love this song the fart/burp part makes me die a little every time I listen

[TheDarogn]

In other songs they say how she was 7 when she was locked up. In I know it's today, she says day number 8423 as her final day, meaning she is 23, plus 7 from when she wasn't so she is 30. She says in here she was locked up for 20 years which is wrong.

I’m playing Fiona in my local theaters production of this. My Shrek, however, is not comfortable with this song. I hate doing the song with him because I feel idiot but I know I’M doing it right. Any advice on how to get him to actually ACT like Shrek?

[joshroman]

I'm shrek in my schools production and this was very helpful

[alexdavis]

[AutoPlay]

I've heard this song so many times I know all the lyrics and I didn't even have to learn it

[jackwyld]

LYRICS

There are things you don't know 
You know, about me, about how rough I had it
What, in that cushy tower of yours?
Cushy? Are you kidding?
I had nothing, in that tower
Fighting boredom by the hour!

Princess Lonely, walking circles
I had only
Bare essentials, army cot
A hot plate and chamber pot and
Every morning I would boil it
No choice, I had no toilet!
Just a view of devastation
Out one window, isolation
In my bedroom and very little headroom
Twenty years, I sat and waited
I'm very dedicated
On the walls the days were added

Luckily, those walls were padded!
So
I think I got you beat
I think I got you beat
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I think I got you beat
I think I got you beat
Oh, you think so? That was a sad story, but
I've heard better, I'm just saying
'A' for effort, thanks for playing
Sad to see a princess suffer
But I had it rougher
Like that time a mob with torches 
Burned my britches, see the scorches
You're just whiney
I had a flaming hiney!
As I fled I had to wonder
If I were torn asunder
Would an ogre go to heaven
Did I mention I was seven?
So

I think I got you beat
I think I got you beat
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I think I got you beat
I think I got you beat

Oopsi!
Oh well better out than in I always say
Ooh
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm

Nana nana na
Nana nana na


Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah

[amyhodges]

I'm scared for our version of the musical... I think im gonna be either Pinocchio, Donkey, or Gingy...

[rebeccan]

honestly im kinda disappointed that they cut the section where both realized they had similar experiences, being sent away by their own parents

[duckislord]

I'm trying out for Fiona tomorrow wish me luck!! 😬😬😖

[SolRamos-sm]

Is there a track version of this song that does not have the burping and farting? I am designing the sound for this show at a theatre I work at, and I hate that the burping and farting is imbedded into the track, I want Music and sound fx seperate so we can really work what we can as needed. Either adding vamps and whatnot or having those FX be individually cued. How can I get a version of this track for the JR musical with no burping and farting? Just a clean music only track.

[patrickp]

I am going for shrek and Im very scared. What alternative should my school use for the fart.

[hileewhitaker]

1:55 OOPSIE! Better out than in I always say

[avapatel]

I am Fiona and this was really helpful.

[kirawalters]

I'm Fiona oh gosh I'm so nervous
