Shiny (Demo)

Lin-Manuel Miranda -Shiny （Demo）

Written by ：Mark Mancina/Lin-Manuel Miranda

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 daddy say that listen to your heart

Be who you are on the inside?

I need three words to tear his argument apart

Your daddy 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

Ah, Here they come come come

To the brightest thing that glitters

My dinners

You fall to hasty

Hasty

You look tasty tasty

Wow

Little Maui's having trouble with his look

You little semi-demi-mini-god

Outch!

What a terrible performance

Get the hook(Get it?)

You don't swing like you used to, man

Yet I have to give you credit for my start

Your tattoo is on the outside

For just like you I made myself work of art

I never hide

I can't, I'm too shiny

I'm the sunrise

On the surface of the sea

Look at me

You'll see I'm so shiny

The monsters see my weaponry and flee

C'est la vie

Don't you know

I will shine shine shine like a rainbow

After showers

Your powers

Will be mine mine mine

They will be mourning

For hours bring flowers

Call me selfish

Selfish

Call me shellfish

Shellfish

Far from the God

Who abandoned you

Chasing the love of these humans

Who made you feel wanted

It's never enough

Love yourself

Get your armor up

They can't see your heart is a

vacancy so why not be

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 I hate negotiations

prostrations

You will die die die

Never test

a big crustacean's

impatience

Unless you have something shiny

Unless you have something shiny
