Chow Down

[BANZAI]
He called us slobbering!

[SHENZI]
Said we were mangy!

[BANZAI]
Did I hear stupid?

[ED]
[spoken] Huh?

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
Tell us again -- gee
It's so incredible

[SHENZI]
That you're so rude

[BANZAI]
When you're so edible

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
When you are food!

[BANZAI]
[spoken] It's time to chow down

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
[spoken] Chow down!
[sung] Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chow down

[SHENZI]
I'm chompin' at the bit, baby

[BANZAI]
My stomach's on a growl, son

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
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

[BANZAI AND SHENZI AND ED]
Seeing you're already toasty brown
Chow down!
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chow down!

[BANZAI]
You're ribs are looking so tasty

[SHENZI]
Such chewy little chops, chums

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
Eat up!

[SHENZI]
Now wasn't it her mom who ate your dad?

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
And having parents eaten makes us mad

[BANZAI]
We're gonna settle up the score a tad

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
We've never had a snack of such renown
Chow down!
Chow down!

[ED]
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-

[SHENZI]
[spoken] What, Ed? What is it?

[BANZAI]
[spoken] Hey, did we order this dinner to go?

[SHENZI]
[spoken] No.

[BANZAI]
[spoken] Well, there it goes!

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
I think we should begin the meal from scratch
So many juicy segments to detatch
Be good as gold for you're as good as carved

[SHENZI]
[spoken] Here, kitty kitty...

[BANZAI AND SHENZI]
[spoken] We're starved!
