Song Lyrics

Now if you want a role model
Of a life most blissfully led
Then look no further than Pumbaa here
Than this laid-back quadruped

Relaxation's the name of the game
Be cool and be thick-skinned
Let my lifestyle be your reference frame

As long as you stand upwind

Your guide must be this rhapsody

I gets up when I likes

He's got it all worked out

I plans the day ahead

He's got it all worked out

When inspiration strikes

He's got it all worked out

I go right back to bed

He's got it all worked out

But though he may not be one of nature's dynamos
His mind is on the ball and far from comatose
Don't dismiss the warthog philosophy

Take it from he!
He's got it all worked out

Take it from me!

He's got it all worked out

Now who wants to be a hunter
Chasing food all over the place

More often than not it gets away

Who needs the thrill of the chase?

Why move mountains to get your chow
When you only need to move a log

Make it your dietary resolve for now
To eat like the old warthog
Regarding food

Hm

His attitude
It's bugs for every meal

I've got it all worked out

So full of vitamins

I've got it all worked out

No need to cook or peel

I've got it all worked out

He eats 'em in their skins

I've got it all worked out

They're delectable, available, the perfect snack
They ain't endangered species
And they don't fight back

Don't dismiss the warthog gastronomy
Take it from he

Take it from me

Take it from he
He's got it all worked out

So remember when you see us staring into space
We're caught between a pillow and a soft, soft place
Don't resist the warthog mentality

Take it from he

Take it from me

Take it from he
Take it from we
We've got it all worked out
