Parody of "Up!" by Shania Twain. This song is sung from the point of view of Carl Fredricksen from the Pixar movie "Up." This was inevitable when I noticed the match in song title and movie title.
lyrics
I'm going up, going up, going up...
Life all around me is a wreck
My house is all that I have left.
But I will utilize it all
To get to Paradise Falls
I will accomplish my dream yet.
Retirement wants to take me in
But another plan, I've been schemin'
I got my house to float away,
Say goodbye to the everyday
From my ballooney bin!
Up, up, up, to Paradise Falls from here!
Up, up, up, where I've dreamed of for 80 years
Up, up, up, I'll only go up from here.
Somehow this kid has got on board.
A junior wilderness explorer
To get the badge he's so far missed,
It's me he must assist,
I don't know what he's got in store.
Up, up, up, through the worst of weather we steer
Up, up, up, 'til the home of my dreams appears
Up, up, up, we'll only go up from here.
Russel's new pet is quite absurd
A rare and colorful little bird
Now by Charles Muntz, we are pursued
But we won't be subdued,
We will not give him the bird.
Although this trip seemed one big mess
It was probably for the best
I've learned to be part of a team,
And ultimately,
We have survived the wilderness!
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
And up, up, up, to where we know adventure's out there
Up, up, up, with lots of memories to share
Up, up, up, it's amazing how well the trip fared!
