If you got hate in your heart
The you got hate in your home
Baby, where you can you when you feel like you just don’t belong?

Hey, Mr Lion please stop acting so tough
Tell me, how is that anyway to get along?

Saturday night I was looking so good, feeling so fine
That’s when I saw old stinky from he corner of my eye
Mr Chimpanzee, Elephant and Mrs Crocodile
Caught-up in a ruckus
They was plain running wild

[Half time loser, lost time baby]

Take care of what you got or lose what you don’t
Listen to me now and believe what I say
There was a great big commotion in the jungle that day
Mr Lion and his boys, yeah, they was rounding them up
Everyone screaming and crying but they just could not get away

Trying to sort it out, process what’s in my mind
Truth? well, sometimes that’s just not easy to find
Can’t get why, can’t get what
And just what’s wrong with this cat?
Baby, how is being different such a terrible crime?

[Half time loser, lost time baby]

Take care of what you got or lose what you don’t

[Half time loser, lost time baby]

Aw baby, you gonna wake up one morning to find that your whole world has changed

Now the grounds they shake, said burn the coconut trees
It was all chaos and fear
But then what did I see?

[Meow, meow, meow]

The cutest little kitten looking right up at me
[ha ha ha]
Oh, a saucer of milk and a nice warm lap
We all need love and don’t it feel good to laugh?
Now, Mr Lion, behave, please, I said that’s enough!
