LYRICS

Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase. Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze. It means no worries for the rest of your days. It's our problem-free philosophy. Hakuna Matata! Hakuna Matata? Yeah.

When I was a young wart hog. Very nice! Thanks. He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal. He could clear the savannah after every meal. I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned.

Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids! Oh. Sorry Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase. Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze. It means no worries for the rest of your days. It's our problem-free philosophy. Hakuna Matata! 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! (Repeats) I say "Hakuna" I say "Matata".
