To Infinity and Beyond is a song from Toy Story: The Musical. It takes place at a familiar scene where Andy's toys meet Buzz for the first time. In this song, Buzz talks about his "past" and his "adventures". It also has a reprise that takes place at the part where Buzz sees a commercial that proves who he really is and through his lamenting. It also reprises in the curtain call and grand finale. This is not to be confused with the same named closing song of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins.
Lyrics[]
Buzz:
As a boy, I had a dream
To be part of something thrilling and extreme
Didn't know what it would be,
But I knew some great adventure lay ahead
So I searched every shore
To be all that I could be and then some more
And then one day, I spotted a ranger
Training poster and this is what it said
For the time of your life and a lifetime of pride,
Through the storm and the strife with the stars as your guide,
You will beat back the dark till a new day has dawned,
For the space rangers' creed is 'To Infinity and beyond!'
Mr. Potato Head:
"What's that button for?"
Hamm:
"Were you made in Singapore?"
Rex:
"What does a space ranger actually do?"
Buzz:
Well, I fly far and wide
With my trusty fellow rangers at my side
To the deepest corners of space protecting
Every mom and dad and boy and girl
We defend the universe
From the likes of Evil Emperor Zurg and worse
And it's such a wonderful feeling
Each and every time we save the world
Rex:
"Can I be a space ranger?"
Mr. Potato Head:
"You're too big!"
Buzz:
"Oh no, no he isn't. He just needs proper training and a specially designed suit to protect those extremely large legs and teeny little arms."
Rex
"I'm gonna be a space ranger!"
Buzz and Rex:
For the time of your life and a lifetime of pride,
Through the storm and the strife with the stars as your guide,
You will beat back the dark till a new day has dawned,
For the space rangers' creed is "To Infinity and beyond!"
Rex:
"Say, what's this button do?"
Buzz:
"I'll show you."
Buzz's recording:
"Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!"
Hamm:
"That's some quality sound system. Probably all-covered wiring."
Slinky:
"Hey, Woody's got somethin' like that."
Mr. Potato Head:
"Oh, it sounds like a car ran over him."
Buzz:
"And this one activates my laser."
Toys:
"Ooooh."
Mr. Potato Head:
"How come you don't have a laser, Woody?"
Woody:
"Now I'm sure we're all very impressed with Andy's new toy."
Buzz:
"Toy? I think the word you're searching for is 'space ranger'."
Toys:
"Yeah!"
Woody:
Hey, come on, you guys, this toy is not a spaceman, don't you see?
And this sticker here is no communicator
Buzz:
"Yes it is."
Woody:
And this thing he calls a laser here is just an L.E.D.,
And it won't blow down an alien invader
Buzz:
"Yes it will!"
Woody:
Come on you guys, this cardboard box did not fall from the sky
It's from a toy store, not from Star Command
And he can't fight evil emperors,
He cannot save the world,
And he clearly cannot fly
Buzz:
"Yes I can!"
Toys:
"Oooh."
Woody:
"No, you can't!"
Buzz:
"Yes, I can."
Woody:
"You can't!"
Buzz:
Can!
Woody:
"Can't, can't, can't!"
Buzz:
"I tell you, I can fly around this room with my eyes closed!"
Woody:
"Prove it!"
Buzz:
"Alright then, I will!"
To infinity and beyond!
"Can!"
Bo Peep:
"Well, I found my moving buddy."
Woody:
"That wasn’t flying, that was falling with style!"
Buzz:
"Come on, future space rangers!"
Buzz and Toys:
For the time of your life!
Woody:
He's only a toy!
Buzz and Toys:
And a lifetime of pride!
Woody:
Guys! He's only a toy!
Buzz and Toys:
Through the storm and the strife with the stars as your guide,
You will beat back the dark till a new day has dawned,
For the space rangers' creed is 'To infinity and beyond!'
And beyond!
And beyond!
And beyond!
And beyond!
Buzz:
To infinity and beyond!
All:
For the time of your life and a lifetime of pride,
Through the storm and the strife with the stars as your guide,
You will beat back the dark till a new day has dawned,
For the space rangers' creed is 'To infinity and beyond!'
And beyond!
And beyond!
And beyond!
And beyond!
To infinity and beyond!
