Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
[Verse 2]
Hakuna Matata! It ain't no passing craze
[Verse 3]
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
[Verse 4]
Hakuna Matata
[Verse 5]
Hakuna Matata?
[Verse 6]
Yeah, it's our motto
[Verse 7]
What's a motto?
[Verse 8]
Nothing, what's a-motto with you? (Nice, boom)
[Verse 9]
Those two words will solve all your problems
[Verse 10]
Yeah, take Pumbaa here
Why, when he was a young warthog
[Verse 11]
When I was a young warthog
[Verse 12]
How are you feeling?
[Verse 13]
It's an emotional story
[Verse 14]
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savannah after every meal
[Verse 15]
I'm a sensitive soul, although I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
[Verse 16]
I was always here for you and I resent that
[Verse 17]
And oh, the shame
[Verse 18]
Yes, he was ashamed
[Verse 19]
I thought of changin' my name
[Verse 20]
I mean to what? Brad?
[Verse 21]
And I got downhearted
Everytime that I farted, are you gonna stop me?
[Verse 22]
No, I'm not, you disgust me
[Verse 23]
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
[Verse 24]
It means no worries for the rest of your days (Yeah, sing it, kid)
[Verse 25]
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
[Verse 26]
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
[Verse 27]
It means no worries for the rest of your days
[Verse 28]
It's our problem-free philosophy
[Verse 29]
Hakuna Matata! (Oh)
Hakuna Matata! (Yeah)
Hakuna Matata! (Oh)
[Verse 30]
It means no worries for the rest of your days
[Verse 31]
It's our problem-free philosophy
[Verse 32]
Hakuna Matata!
One more time
[Verse 33]
Oh, no, I think we get it
[Verse 34]
I think we got this one
[Verse 35]
But we're just getting in the groove
[Verse 36]
No, let's leave them wanting more
[Verse 37]
Yeah, you've grown four hundred pounds since we started
[Verse 38]
Meanwhile, I look exactly the same
[Verse 39]
It means no worries, oh yeah
[Verse 40]
Would you tell him to stop?
[Verse 41]
Well, you insisted we sing the song
[Verse 42]
I insisted? You started singing it
[Verse 43]
It's our signature song, we shouldn't be sharing it
[Verse 44]
But it's our signature song, so we have to
Look, just tell him to stop
[Verse 45]
It means no worries, oh
[Verse 46]
Oh, now he's riffing Pumbaa, this is a nightmare
[Verse 47]
It's actually becoming better
