"Tickbirds and Rhinos" is split into three parts. The first part is sung by Kifaru when he explains to the Lion Guard why rhinoceroses and tickbirds make such good pairs. The song is reprised by Mwenzi, who sings to Ono about the species' relationship, and reprised again by both Kifaru and Mwenzi after they reunite and make up their differences.

Lyrics[]

Part 1[]

Kifaru:
Tickbirds and rhi-i-i-inos
We're always a pair
Together, we go-o-o-o
Everywhere

He's always guiding me along
Cleaning all the pesky bugs right off of my back
Tickbirds and rhi-i-i-inos
We're always a pair

Part 2[]

Mwenzi:
Tickbirds and rhi-i-i-inos
We're always a pair
Together, we go-o-o-o
Everywhere

Takin' me for a ride while I eat all those bugs right off his back
Tickbirds and rhi-i-i-inos
We're always a pair

Part 3[]

Mwenzi:
Tickbirds

Kifaru:
And rhi-i-i-inos

Kifaru and Mwenzi:
We're always a pair
