Lyrics

Timon:
- There's more to life then panic
And being some other guy's snack
- I may be delicious, organic
But this little entree's fighting back
- I'm gonna put digging tunnel's behind me
And live at a new altitude
- I'm gonna reach for the stars to remind me
That meerkats are not merely food
- For once, I'll be
- Looking out for meeeee!
- -Yeah!
- I'll tell you what I want
- This kat is moving on!
- Who's missing out on fun
- I'll be the big cheese
- Far on the desert scene
- A little cooling breeze
- A little patch of green!
- And I'll be snoozing in my hammock by a rippling stream
- Many miles from any tunnel & the digging gene
- Looking after one will be my only greed
- That's all I need
- That's all I neeeed!
- I've always been good at running away
- Well now I'm gonna run to shore
- I've always been seen as the ultimate prey
- But now my status ain't so - quo
- A dream sublime...
- It's hyena time.
- It's Timon-o-rama time!
- I've never been the type
- You'll have a perfect home
- To fall for all that hype
- Where no hyenas roam
About the meerkat role
Where it's a shoe-in cinch In some organic hole
Where you don't have to flinch
And all that circle rot
And stand on guard as if
Is just a cunning plot
You've mastered scratch 'n sniff
For coming to the crunch
A fantasy sublime
I ain't nobody's lunch
Timon-o-rama time
This isn't for the birds, it isn't monkey shine
I ain't asking for a lot, but what is mine is mine
You never want to argue with a chorus line
That's all I need
That is all he needs
Whoa whoa, I beg and plead!
Whoa, I beg and plead!
That...is...all...I...need --- All I need!

- A longer version of the song appears on the film's soundtrack.
