Warthog Rhapsody

Now if you want a role model
Of a life most blissfully led
Then look no further than Pumbaa here
Then 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

(Chorus)
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 philosphy

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
Hmmmmmmmmm
His attitude

(Chorus)
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

The'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
