Lyrics REY: War winners, I'd like to add this. [SINGING] When I was homeless, with no place to rest, you got together and made me a nest. I want to thank you, thank you, thank you for being my friends. Buckets of rain fell out of the sky. You took me home to get cozy and dry. I want to thank you, thank you, thank you for being my friends. My Granny says friends stay friends by the little things they do for each other. Thanks for my nest, pals. Next hurricane, I'll help you. Thanks, McPhee and BB-8. Ah, thank you, Finn. Hey, and thank you, Toto and Joe. Thanks, Bernard and Alfred. And thank you, Ooblar and Goobot. Gosh. And I want to thank the Sheriff. And thanks, thanks, Chewie.CHEWIE: Oh.REY (to the Penguins): OK, and I want to thank you, too.McPHEE: REY, we have something to say to you, too.REY: Oh.TOTO: Yeah.ALL: [SINGING] R-E-Y, R-E-Y, you are the best.
