Lyrics[]
- [marching drum cadence]
- Starlight Glimmer: Heads high, ponies! Marching proud! [whistle blows] All together now! Every one of you! No pony left behind!
- Life is so grand in Our Town
- We're always filled with cheer
- We never have to look around
- To know that we're all here
- [Citizens]
- In Our Town, in Our Town
- We don't have to wait
- To find out that our destiny
- Is just to emulate
- Starlight Glimmer: Let's see those big, happy smiles!
- Life is a smile in Our Town
- Our cutie mark's the same
- Because we do not separate
- Ourselves by more than name
- [Citizens]
- In Our Town, in Our Town
- We dare not compete
- Winning only breeds the worst
- Ego-filled conceit
- Starlight Glimmer: You see? Now everypony wins!
- Life is a joy in Our Town
- We're all equal here
- No one is superior
- And no one shakes in fear
- [Citizens]
- In Our Town, in Our Town
- We work as a team
- You can't have a nightmare
- If you never dream
- [Starlight Glimmer]
- Other ponies argue
- Do you ever wonder why?
- When you think your talent's special
- You don't see eye-to-eye
- There's just too many differences
- That lead to disarray
- But when you learn to act as one
- It's like a holiday
- [Citizens]
- In Our Town, in Our Town
- We don't complicate
- When you learn to simplify
- Life is oh, so great
- Join in our utopia
- Come out of the dark
- Banded by equality
- By our cutie mark!
