Hakuna Matata Song 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
[Timon:]
Hakuna Matata!
[Spoken section over background]
[Simba:] Hakuna matata?
[Pumbaa:] Yeah, it's our motto.
[Simba:] What's a motto?
[Timon:] Nothing! What's a motto with you? Ahh ha ha ha...
[Pumbaa: {Laughing}] You know what, kid?
These two words will
solve all your problems.
[Timon:] That's right! Take Pumbaa for example.
[Back into song]
[Timon:]
Why, when he was a young warthog...
[Pumbaa: {Italian counter-tenor range}]
When I was a young wart hoooog!
[Timon: {Speaking, cleaning ear}] Very nice.
[Pumbaa:] Thanks!
[Timon: {Singing}]
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!
Thoughta changin' my name
{Oh, what's in a name?}
And I got downhearted
{How did you feel?}
Ev'rytime that I...
[Timon: {Speaking}] Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
[Pumbaa: {Speaking}] Oh... sorry.
[Pumbaa and Timon:]
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
[Simba:]
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
[Timon:]
Yeah, sing it, kid!
[Simba and Timon:]
It's our problem-free ...........
[Pumbaa:]
..................... philosophy...
[All three:]
Hakuna Matata!
