Scott: The Musical

by StarHeart Specials

Scott was a lonely ogre who lived in a nasty swamp in a forest, all alone. But then one day, he has to rescue a princess from a tower so he can get his home back. But what happens when the ogre unexpectedly starts falling for this princess, who has a strange secret of her own. (TD version of Shrek) (Told through song)

14. When Words Fail

Scott was practicing how he should tell Courtney his feelings for her.

"Courtney, I, how's it going first of all? Good? And for me too, I'm ok. Um..."

Scott: I picked this flower right over there is where it grew

And I don't really like it, but it made me think of you

Because it's pretty

Is what I'm trying to say

And you're also pretty

But I like you anyway

So please accept this flower with its petals and a stem

Which represent my feelings and tells you how- -

"Oh man, I'm in trouble."

When words fail, what will I do?

When words fail, how will she know how I feel?

When words fail, will I fail too?

Hello, fair princess

Oh look, the moon is out tonight

You remind me of that moon because it's big and bright

And by big, I don't mean chubby

Obviously, you're not fat

But you're personality is biggish is what I meant by that

Sorry about that fat thing

I'm on the hefty side myself

I have to blame the gene pool, which reminds me of- -

"Oh, where am I going with this?"

When words fail, what will I do?

When words fail, how will she know how I feel?

When words fail, will I fail too?

Do I have a snowball's chance?

Are my prospects just to grim?

I've spent my life stuck in the mud

Now I'm crawling out on a limb

Scott's face suddenly brightened up and he smiled.

If words fail, she'll know what I mean

If words fail, she'll just take my hand

She sees me like no one else has

If words fail, she'll understand

She'll understand
