The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room

"The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room" is a song written by the Sherman Brothers for the Audio-Animatronic Disneyland attraction Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room, located in Adventureland. This is the first of several songs in this musical show of colorful tropical birds. The song is included in all versions of the attraction, except for Aloha e Komo Mai, where the opening song was "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride" instead.
==Background==
===Development===
The Sherman Brothers were called upon to write the song after seeing an early test of the show, being instructed to come up with an introductory song. They recycled the tune from a song they wrote for the "Escape to Paradise/Water Birds" episode of Walt Disney Presents that played over behind the scenes footage of Swiss Family Robinson.
