Banzai:
He called us slobbering!

Shenzi:
Said we were mangy!

Banzai:
Did I hear stupid?

Ed:
Huh?

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!

Ed:
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-

Shenzi:
What, Ed? What is it?

Banzai:
Hey, did we order this dinner to go?

Shenzi:
No

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!
