Hakuna Matata Lyrics

    TIMON
    Hakuna Matata!
    What a wonderful phrase

    PUMBA
    Hakuna Matata!
    Ain't no passing craze

    TIMON
    It means no worries
    For the rest of your days

    TIMON & PUMBA
    It's our problem-free philosophy
    Hakuna Matata!

    TIMON
    Hakuna Matata!

    YOUNG SIMBA
    Hakuna Matata?

    PUMBA
    Yeah. It's our motto!

    YOUNG SIMBA
    What's a motto?

    TIMON
    Nothin'! What's-a-motto with you?!

    PUMBA
    Those two words will solve all your problems.

    TIMON
    That's right. Take Pumbaa here
    sung Why...when he was a young warthog

    PUMBA
    When I was a young warthog

    TIMON
    Very nice

    PUMBA
    Thanks.

    TIMON
    He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
    He could clear the savannah after ev'ry meal

    PUMBA
    I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned
    And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind

    PUMBA
    And, oh, the shame

    TIMON
    Oh, the shame!

    PUMBA
    Thought of changin' my name

    TIMON
    What's in a name?

    PUMBA
    And I got downhearted

    TIMON
    How did ya feel?

    PUMBA
    Ev'rytime that I...

    TIMON
    spoken Hey, Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!

    PUMBA
    spoken Oh, sorry.

    TIMON & PUMBA
    Hakuna Matata!
    What a wonderful phrase
    Hakuna Matata!
    Ain't no passing craze

    YOUNG 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!
    Hakuna Matata! Hakuna Matata!
    Hakuna Matata! Hakuna --

    SIMBA (Older)
    It means no worries for the rest of your days

    ALL
    It's our problem-free philosophy
    Hakuna Matata! repeat

    PUMBA
    I say ‘Hakuna’

    TIMON
    I say ‘Matata’
