"Livin' la Vida Loca" is the closing song sung in Shrek 2, sung by Donkey and Puss with many characters playing instruments. It is partially sung again by the same characters in the beginning of "Far Far Away Idol", much to Gingy's dismay.

Originally, the song was sung by Ricky Martin, and was a number one and certified Platinum in both the US and UK.

Lyrics[]

Original version[]

Donkey:
Uno, dos, cuatro, hit it!

Fiona: Donkey...

Donkey:
(Puss and Donkey, ya'll.)

Donkey:
She's into superstitions
Black cats and voodoo dolls
(Sing it, Puss!)

Puss in Boots:
I feel a premonition
That girl's gonna make me fall

Donkey:
Here we go!

Puss in Boots:
She's into new sensations

Donkey and Puss in Boots:
New kicks in the candlelight
She's got a new addiction
For every day and night

She'll make you take your clothes off
And go dancing in the rain
She'll make you live her crazy life
But she'll take away your pain
Like a bullet to your brain!

Upside inside out
Livin' la Vida Loca
She'll push and pull you down
Mongo: Livin' la Vida Loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin's the color of mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la Vida Loca

Donkey: (Oh, she's livin' loca!)

Puss in Boots:
Livin' la Vida Loca

Donkey: Say it one more time, now!

Donkey and Puss in Boots:
Livin' la Vida Loca

(Puss in Boots jamming)


Puss in Boots:
(Hey, Donkey, that's Spanish!)
Woke up in New York City
In a funky cheap motel
She took my heart, she took my money
She must slipped me a sleeping pill

Donkey:
She never drinks the water and makes you order French champagne
(Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!)
And once you've had a taste of her
You will never feel the same!
Yes, she'll make you go insane!

Donkey and Puss in Boots:
Upside inside out
Livin' la Vida Loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la Vida Loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin’s the color of mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la Vida Loca (x3)

Donkey:
Come on!
(Ow!)
(Oh, she's living la loca!)

Bring it down!

Donkey and Puss in Boots:
Upside inside out
Livin' la Vida Loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la Vida Loca (x2)
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la Vida Loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin’s the color of mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la Vida Loca! (x3)
