Produced By: Chris Thomas, Hans Zimmer, Jay Rifkin & Mark Mancina
[Timon]
Hakuna matata! What a wonderful phrase!
[Pumbaa]
Hakuna matata! Ain’t no pa**ing craze!
[Timon]
It means no worries, for the rest of your days…
[Timon, Pumba]
It’s our problem-free philosophy…
[Timon]
Hakuna matata!
[Simba]
“Hakuna matata?”
[Pumbaa]
“Yeah. It’s our motto!”
[Simba]
“What’s a motto?”
[Timon]
“Nothing. What’s a-motto with you?”
[Pumbaa]
“You know kid, these two words will solve all your problems.”
[Timon]
“That’s right. Take Pumbaa for example.”
Why, when he was a young warthog…
[Pumbaa]
When I was a young wart hog…
[Timon]
“Very nice.”
[Pumbaa]
“Thanks.”
[Timon]
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savannah after every meal
[Pumbaa]
I’m a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
And oh, the shame
[Timon]
He was ashamed
[Pumbaa]
Thought of changin’ my name!
[Timon]
What’s in a name?
[Pumbaa]
And I got downhearted
[Timon]
How did ya feel?
[Pumbaa]
Everytime that I…
[Timon]
Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
[Pumbaa]
Oh. Sorry…
[Chorus: Timon, Pumbaa, Simba]
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain’t no pa**ing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It’s our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
[Timon, Pumbaa]
“Welcome to our humble home!”
[Simba]
“You live here?”
[Timon]
“We live wherever we want!”
[Pumbaa]
“Yep, home is where your rump rests!”
[Simon]
“It’s beautiful.”
[Pumbaa]
(burps) “I’m starved!”
[Simba]
“I’m so hungry, I can eat a whole zebra!”
[Timon]
“Uh… we’re fresh out of zebra.”
[Simba]
“Any antelope?”
[Timon]
Nuh-uh
[Simba]
“Hippo?”
[Timon]
“Nope. Listen, kid, if you live with us, you have to eat like us. Hey, this looks like a good spot to rustle up some grub!”
[Simba]
“Eww… what’s that?”
[Timon]
“A grub, what’s it look like?”
[Simba]
“Eww, gross!”
[Timon]
“Mm, tastes like chicken!”
[Pumbaa]
(slurps) “Slimy… yet satisfying!”
[Timon]
“These are rare delicacies. Mm. Piquant, with a very pleasant crunch.”
[Pumbaa]
(mouth full) “You’ll learn to love ’em!”
[Timon]
“I’m telling ya kid, this is the great life. No rules, no responsibilities… ooh, the little cream-filled kind! And best of all, no worries! Well, kid?
[Simba]
Oh well, hakuna matata… (pause) Slimy, yet satisfying!
[Timon]
That’s it!
[Chorus: Timon, Pumbaa, Simba]
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna matata!
Hakuna…
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It’s our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna matata!
