Lyrics

There's nothing really original about this - but I am confident it is the first jingle to include KiSwahili lyrics (Google 'em!)- which makes me feel a little bad since the original is in iSiZulu. Jingling about an unremarkable lawn invasion while I am ensconced on the edge of the actual Serengeti (true, as some have heard) makes this a bad joke on me. As it should be.

[mpumbavu wewe mpumbavu
mpumbavu wewe mpumbavu]

From the day you departed Long Island
Have you ever once been to a zoo?
You must know that fawns do not come from a jar
They’re living creatures just like me and you

Your dog by now has adjusted
And that doe will keep her young at bay
So just try to conceal all the panic you feel
Rock Creek Park is not that far away!

Don’t be a jerk all your life
Won’t you turn your hose off?
Though you failed biology
Don’t call 911!
Just go back inside
You can stay in the big house
Don’t be a jerk, a jerk all your life

From The Lion King
