The Morning Report Lyrics

It's an honor and a privilege, a duty I perform
With due sense of decorum and with pride
With deference and great respect very much the norm
Plus a hint of sycophancy on the side
To lay before my ruler all the facts about his realm
To fill him in on all the beastly news

Yes, yes, Zazu, get on with it

In order that His Majesty stands sturdy at the helm
Aware of all the fauna's latest views
Zazu, the morning report
Yes, Sire the morning report

Chimps are going ape, giraffes remain above it all
Elephants remember, though just what I can't recall
Crocodiles are snapping up fresh offers from the banks
Showed interest in my nest egg but I quickly said, "No thanks!"
We haven't paid the hornbills and the vultures have a hunch
Not everyone invited will be coming back for lunch

This is the morning report
Gives you the long and the short
Every grunt, roar, and snort
Not a tale I distort
On the morning report

(What are you doing, son?)
(Pouncing)
(Ah, let an old pro show you how it's done)

The buffalo have got a beef
(Stay low) about this season's grass
(To the ground) warthogs have been thwarted in attempts to save their gas
(Yes, stay low) flamingoes in the pink and
(Shh, not a sound) chasing secretary birds
Saffron is this season's color
Seen in all the heards
Moving down the rank and file (take it slow)
To near the bottom rung (one more step)
Far too many beetles are quite frankly in the dung (then)
(Pounce)

This is the morning report
Gives you the long and the short
Every grunt, roar, and snort
Not a tale I distort
On the morning report

This is the morning report
Gives you the long and the short
Every grunt, roar, and snort
Not a tale I distort
On the morning report
