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 a perfect place
Please keep off of the grass,
Shine your shoes, wipe your face
Duloc is, Duloc is, Duloc is a perfect place
(Musical interlude when Lord Farquaad is introduced)
Oh, its you! What a terrific surprise!
Once upon a time, this place was infested
Freaks on ev?ry coner, 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 im 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,
The men are so dashing
Thanks to my new dress code,
The fashion?s never clashing
Hey nonny, nonny, nonny no
This castle I had built, is taller than the cliff tops
A city like a post card, a monorail and gift shops
Farquaad: And so, And so, And so!
Citizens: And so, And so,
No one from the gutter in Duloc
Hes taking aim
Embrace the cookie cutter in Duloc
We?re all the same
The upshot is enormous when you can shout
?Conform us!?
Farquaad: Things are look - ing up!
Citizens: Things are looking up. Things are looking up. Things are looking up
Here in Duloc!
(Musical interlude where the citizens and Farquaad dance)
There?s no sign of slow - ing, we?re grow - ing, we?re grow - ing
Look, hes 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 im cooking up here
He taught us to dance with razzamatazz
Hes 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
Here in Duloc
Up, up, up, up, up!
