==Lyrics==
Timon:
When I was a young meerkat
Pumbaa:
When he was a young meerkat
Timon: (spoken)
Very nice.
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Thanks.
Timon:
I worked in the colony
Payin' my dues
Acceptin' without question
The prevailing views
That a meerkat's life
Was one long grind
Pumbaa: (spoken)
That sounds rough.
Timon:
Diggin' holes
Standin' guard
Till it crossed my mind
I was wrong
Pumbaa:
He was wrong
Timon:
And all along
Pumbaa:
All along
Timon:
All that I needed
Pumbaa:
What did'ja need?
Timon:
Was to have heeded
Pumbaa:
Sing it, Timon
Timon:
Hakuna matata
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna matata
Ain't no passin' craze
Pumbaa:
Ditto!
Timon:
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's our problem-free
Philosophy
Hakuna matata
Simba: (spoken)
Hakuna ma...? Does that really work?
Timon: (spoken)
Does it work? Oh, that's rich. Oh, Pumbaa. Tell him!
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Listen to me, kid. Just sit down there. Have I got a story for you.
Pumbaa:
When I was a young warthog
Timon:
When he was a young warthog
Pumbaa:
I found my aroma lacked certain appeal
I could clear the savanna after every meal
I'm a sensitive soul
Though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt
That my friends never stood
Downwind
And oh, the shame!
Timon:
Oh, he was ashamed
Pumbaa:
Tried changin' my name
Timon:
You can't remember the one you've got
Pumbaa:
And I got down-hearted
Every time that I...
Timon: (spoken)
Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids.
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Oh. Sorry.
Timon and Pumbaa:
Hakuna matata
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna matata
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
Take our problem-free
Philosophy
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
Take our problem-free
Philosophy
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
