Banzai:
He called us slobbering!
Shenzi:
Said we were mangy!
Banzai:
Did I hear stupid?
Shenzi & Banzai:
Tell us again-- gee
It's so incredible
Shenzi:
That you're so rude
Banzai:
When you're so edible
Shenzi & Banzai:
When you are food!
Banzai:
It's time to chow down
Shenzi & Banzai:
Chow down!
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chow down
Shenzi:
I'm chompin' at the bit, baby
Banzai:
My stomach's on the growl, son
Shenzi & Banzai:
Chow down!
Chow down!
You both been invited on a date
Two courses handed to us on a plate
We'll have you raw, won't be long to wait
Seeing you're already brown
Chow down!
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chow down!
Banzai:
Your ribs are looking so tasty
Shenzi:
Such chewy little chops, chums
Shenzi & Banzai:
Eat up!
Shenzi:
Now wasn't it her mom who ate your dad?
Shenzi & Banzai:
And having parents eaten makes us mad
Banzai:
We're gonna settle up the score a tad
Shenzi & Banzai:
We've never had a snack of such renown
Chow down!
Chow down!
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-
Shenzi:
What, Ed? What is it?
Banzai:
Hey, did we order this dinner to go?
Shenzi:
Banzai:
Well, there it goes!
Shenzi & Banzai:
I think we should begin the meal from scratch
So many juicy segments to detach
Be good as gold for you're as good as carved
Shenzi:
Here, kitty kitty...
Shenzi & Banzai:
We're starved!
