Shrek feels betrayed by both Fiona and Donkey, and is planning on shutting Donkey out, the one who proposed to stay together in the first place. Shrek’s meaning of “building a wall” is just as emotional as it is physical.
[SHREK]
I'm gonna build me a wall, I'll make it ten feet high
See ya later pal, bye bye
No one gettin' in so don't you even try
A ten foot wall
I'm gonna build me a wall, I'm gonna disappear
What's the matter pal
Am I not bein' clear?
Can't you take a hint
Am I getting through at all?
Just get outta here
I was told the world would despise me
So I should have known, I should have guessed
I thought these two might be different
Well now I know, they're just like all the rest
I'm gonna be what they want, I'm gonna be what they say
Hey world, I'll do it your way!
You're looking for a monster, it's your lucky day
I'll be what you want
What a fool to think she might love me
I opened my heart and let her walk through
She wanted prince charming, I wanted my home back
How lucky both our wishes came true
Gonna build me a wall, a perfect place to hide
Hey world, stay on your side
The best way to conquer they say is to divide
Gonna build a wall
Gonna be what they say
Gonna hide in my heart
Gonna build a wall
