Lyrics Die Trying - Kristen Bell, Tituss Burgess, Kathryn Hahn

Die Trying

Is that?
It’s kind of a new character
Park Guy
It’s just something I was playing around with
Are his shorts pulled up really high?
I mean, the normal amount
But also, he gets his powers from them
And is the snakehead saying
«I'm this way because I never learned to read»?
It makes sense for this character
All right
I’m going back out
I’m gonna get that fish
We’re going with you … until bedtime
There’s a fish who’s a beast from head to tail
It’s become the park’s white whale
So just call me Ishmael
Be bold-faced and daring
Let us go and tame the wild sea
Time will tell what’s meant to be
And we’ll fight till we are free
Catch it like a dad with his shirt tucked in
Be brave (Be brave)
When the moment comes to pass (to pass)
This ain’t no Billy Bass (Billy Bass)
See, there’s movement in the grass
(In the grass, in the grassy, grassy grass)
Let me do this one thing
Or at least die trying (trying)
I’m gonna do this one thing
Or at least die trying (don't die)
But if I do I hope you’ll tell my story
And that’s my dying wish
We’ll always remember how you died
When you tried to catch a scary fish
I-- I got it!
You did it!
You really did it!
And you didn’t die, I like that
I was gonna die, was gonna die, die trying
Didn’t die trying, didn’t die trying
My team and I we would’ve died, died trying
I see you as a superhero
Didn’t die trying, didn’t die trying
This means we can save the park
And we’ll do it every day or we’ll die trying
Now, that’s a story
We didn’t die, didn’t die, die trying
Flake’s fake, fish fraud
Bitsy bamboozles
Mayer commends the park employees
And we didn’t die trying, didn’t die trying
I’m gonna buy that stupid park
Yes, you’ve mentioned that
Maybe I’ll buy that stupid newspaper too
That seems nonprofitable
But it would be so pleasing to fire everyone
Does someone need er feel-better juice?
I don’t want to feel better!
I want to -- wait, yes, feel-better juice would be nice
That helps too
I’ll buy the park or die, die trying
Please die trying, please die trying
Yes, I’ll get that stupid park, or die trying
Please, pretty please, pretty please die trying
Oh, we’ll protect the park
Or we’ll die trying, trying
In Central Park
What if I own it?
It’s the place where we began
You know your mama’s got this (mama got this)
Central Park
And it’s where I met Dianne (Dianne)
Grandiose and glorious
Unlike any place on earth
Thanks to this family
(I'll die if I don’t try)
The park is secure now
(I'll die if I don’t try)
But thinking it’s over
(I'll die if I don’t try)
Is quite premature now
(If I don’t try, don’t try)
Oh, in Central, in Central Park (Central Park)
