Hakuna Matata

When I was a cool young one
(When she was a cool young one)
I worked in the colony, paying my due
Accepting without question the prevailing views

That a young girl's life was one long grind
Digging hole,standing guard
'Til it crossed my mind, I was wrong, all along
All that I needed was to have heeded

What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna matata
Ain't no passing craze

It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's a problem free philosophy

When I was a shallow youth
(When she was a shallow youth)
Cool calm reflection, I was never that good
I was a pawn in the game

I saw no trees for the wood
My future stretched behind me
I was over the hill
I put my best foot forward but the other stood still

Take my word
(Take her word)
I have heard
(She has heard)
All that I needed
Was to have heeded

Hakuna matata
I hope I have conveyed
You don't have to bust a gut in the sun
It's much cooler in the shade

Some say it's just a waste of time
But they don't realize
That view is nothing but a crime
We are creatures worldly wise
