Lyrics

[Rainbow Dash]

These animals don't listen, no, not one little bit

They run around out of control and throw their hissy fits

[cat hissing]

It's up to me to stop them, 'cause plainly you can see

It's got to be my destiny, and it's what my cutie mark is telling me

[Fluttershy]

[blows balloon]

I try to keep them laughing, put a smile upon their face

But no matter what I try, it seems a bit of a disgrace

[blows party horn]

[laughter]

I have to entertain them, it's there for all to see

It's got to be my destiny, and it's what my cutie mark is telling me

[Pinkie Pie]

I don't care much for pickin' fruit and plowin' fields ain't such a hoot

No matter what I try, I cannot FIX THIS BUSTED WATER CHUTE!

I've got so many chores to do, it's no fun being me

But it has to be my destiny, 'cause it's what my cutie mark is telling me

[Applejack]

Lookie here at what I made, I think that it's a dress

I know it doesn't look like much, I'm under some distress

Could y'all give me a hand here and help me fix this mess?

My destiny is not pretty, but it's what my cutie mark is tellin' me

[Rarity]

I'm in love with weather patterns, but the others have concerns

For I just gave them frostbite over top of their sunburns

I have to keep on trying, for everyone can see

[Rarity and Rainbow Dash]

It's got to be

[Fluttershy]

It's got to be

[Pinkie Pie]

My destiny

[Applejack]

My destiny

[Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy]

And it's what my cutie mark

[Pinkie Pie and Applejack]

It's what my cutie mark

[Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack]

Yes, it's what my cutie mark is telling me!
