Lyrics[]
Timon:
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Pumbaa:
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
Timon:
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
Both:
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Timon:
Hakuna Matata!
Simba: (spoken)
Hakuna Matata?
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Yeah. It's our motto!
Simba: (spoken)
What's a motto?
Timon: (spoken)
Nothin'! What's-a-motto with you?!
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Those two words will solve all your problems.
Timon: (spoken)
That's right. Take Pumbaa here.
Timon:
Why, when he was a young warthog
Pumbaa:
When I was a young warthog
Timon: (spoken)
Very nice.
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Thanks.
Timon:
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savanna 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:
Oh, the shame!
Pumbaa:
Thought of changin' my name
Timon:
What's in a name?
Pumbaa:
And I got downhearted
Timon:
How did ya feel?
Pumbaa:
Every time that I...
Timon: (spoken)
Hey, Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
Pumbaa: (spoken)
Oh, sorry.
Both:
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
Simba:
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
All:
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata!
Simba:
It means no worries for the rest of your days
All:
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Pumbaa:
I say Hakuna
Timon:
I say Matata
Pumbaa:
Hakuna Matata
Timon:
Hakuna Matata
Ta-ta!
