Lyrics
Woody: This is Andy we're talking about here. It doesn't matter how much we're played with. What matters is that we're here when Andy needs us, and he needs us now!

Just because you've been Just because you've been Sitting 'round inside the box or under the bed You think you're only gathering dust

Doesn't mean a thing Doesn't mean a thing, Wipe off that frown, don't worry your plastic head We all got to have some trust

'Cause every time that boy comes walking through that door He needs to know we'll be right where we were before

That's why we're here! We are the all-star cast we're just listenin' for our cues That why we're here! We all got parts to play now we all got nothing to lose

Anything Andy can imagine, it's our job to make appear That's what we're made for That's why we're here

Slinky: If Woody said it's alright, well, darn it, that's good enough for me!

Bo Peep: Slinky's right, we should listen to Woody.

Rex: But if he gets those new toys, he's going to forget about all of us!

Hamm: We're next month's garage sale fodder for sure!

Bo Peep: That's not going to happen.

Woody: Of course, it isn't!

Mr. Potato Head: Well, sure, Woody ain't worried. He's been Andy's favorite since Kindergarten.

Bo Peep: Hey Potato Head Hey Potato Head Why be without your eyes, your mouth, or your nose? You're just another faceless smug

Mr. Potato Head: What?! You wish you had these lips.

Woody and Bo Peep: They belong to you We belong to him No matter what we do We go where Andy goes!

Bo Peep: So don't such a stick in the mud

Mr. Potato Head: You ain't no joyride either, sister!

Woody and Bo Peep: So you're a smaller toy but you play no small part You're on the stage of Andy's room and his heart That's why we're here!

Rex: We are the all-star cast just waiting in the wings!

Woody: That's why we're here!

Slinky: And when the time is right, somebody's gonna pull our strings

Woody's voice box: Reach for the skies!

Woody: So if you've been inside a closet or up on a shelf all year You gotta believe me when I tell you toys "You've got no reason to fear."

All: There is a boy who loves us all and let me make it very clear!

Woody: That what we're made for! That's why we're here!

Chorus: That's why we're here! That's why we're here! That's why we're here!

Woody: That's why we're here!

Chorus: That's why we're here! That's why we're here! That's why we're here!

Woody: Yeah, yeah, yeah! That's why we're here!

Chorus: That's why we're here! That's why we're here! That's why we're here!

Rex: That's why we're here!

Chorus: That's why we're here! That's why we're here! That's why we're here!

Hamm: That's why we're here!

Chorus: That's why we're here! That's why we're here! That's why we're here!

Slinky: That's why we're here!''

Chorus That's why we're here! That's why we're here!

All: That's why we're here!
