Hakuna Matata (The Lion King) 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!

Simba: Hakuna matata?
Pumbaa: Yeah. It’s our motto!
Simba: What’s a motto?
Timon: Nothin’ what’s a motto with you?!
Pumbaa: Hakuna matata: These two words will solve all your problems.

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!

Timon: Welcome to our humble abode.
Pumbaa: Gee I’m starved.
Simba: I’m so hungry I could eat a whole zebra!
Timon: Yeeesh listen kid if you’re gonna live with us, you gotta eat like us.
Simba: Eww what’s that?
Timon: A grub!
Simba: Gross.
Pumbaa: Slimy, yet satisfying!
Timon: I’m tellin’ ya, kid - this is the life! No rules, no responsibilities, and best of all, no worries! One for you, enjoy!
Simba: Okay here goes….Hakuna matata. Slimy, yet satisfying! That’s it!

Hakuna matata

It means no worries for the rest of your days
It’s our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna matata
Hakuna matata
We say Hakuna, we say Matata
Hakuna - Matata
Hakuna - Matata
Hakuna
Matata!
