Lyrics:
There's more to life than panic
And bein' some other guy's snack (ugh!) I may be delicious, organic But this little entree's fightin' back I'm gonna put digging tunnels 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 Lookin' out for me Yeah! I'll tell you what I want This cat is moving on He's a bon vivant Who's missin' out on bon I'd be a bigger cheese |
Far from 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 And the digging team Looking out for number one will be my only creed That's all I need That's all I need I've always been good at running away Well, now I'm gonna run to show I've always been seen as the ultimate prey But now my status ain't so quo A dream sublime It's hyena ti---! |
