00:00Out of the jungle, out of the sky, whether the largest or the least,
00:30whether we walk or whether we fly, bird, fish, or man, or beast,
00:46we are of one mind, you and I.
00:54Give us our freedom or soon we die.
01:02Freedom or soon we die.
01:09From my heart I call to you, to you, mother wolf and ovaloo.
01:25Oh, hear me, Akira and Fakira too, hear me cry.
01:37The jungle call, brothers all, brothers all.
01:50Though life may change and years pass us by,
01:59we will remember this great law.
02:07Law of the sea, the earth, and the sky.
02:14Whether we swim or crawl, we are of one blood, you and I.
02:31Give us our freedom or soon we die.
02:39Freedom or soon we die.
02:46From my heart I call to you, to you, mother wolf and ovaloo.
03:03Oh, hear me, Akira and Fakira too, hear me cry.
03:13The jungle call, brothers all, brothers all.
03:44From my heart I call to you, to you, mother wolf and ovaloo.
03:50To the moon we lift our voices.
04:10To the moon we lift our voices.
04:25In a fearful harmony,
04:33no one but us rejoices at the song of the sea, oh me.
04:48All for one and one for all, we'll sing out our deeds tonight.
04:57Oh, hear the tune of our wild hunting call,
05:02as we sing by the moon's silver light in the night.
05:08The pack can always defend its own, whatever its own may lack.
05:17And the tiger may be king when he fights alone,
05:24but the tiger fears the pack.
05:31To the moon we lift our voices.
05:44In a fearful harmony,
05:50no one but us rejoices at the song of the sea, oh me.
06:20Now come along with me and take a ride.
06:35You'll see what mother nature can provide.
06:39That's why a bear can rest at ease with just the bare necessities,
06:44with fruits and nuts and other things beside.
06:47Then as we wander over my backyard,
06:52we'll flip a rock just like it was a card.
06:57The beetles are selectable, in fact they are delectable,
07:02so eat them up, it's really not too hard.
07:05A nobody doe, it's all so easy.
07:10A nobody doe doe, no cares, no strife.
07:14A nobody doe doe doe, no matter where we go,
07:20we'll find the bare necessities of life.
07:26It's nice to ponder as we slowly roam,
07:30while growing ponder of our jungle home.
07:35We'll watch the busy little bee who's making honey just for me,
07:40as I dip for the honey from the comb.
07:44Ouch! I've learned to love the food that's by my side.
07:49There's hardly anything I can't abide.
07:54Now answer quite a tasty dish, don't wait for me, eat all you wish.
07:59You like the way they tickle you inside.
08:03A nobody doe, it's all so easy.
08:07A nobody doe doe, no cares, no strife.
08:11A nobody doe doe doe, no matter where we go,
08:17we'll find the bare necessities of life.
08:20A nobody doe, a nobody doe.
08:38So if you learn to live a life of ease,
08:43the fruits and nuts will fall out of the tree.
08:47If you relax throughout the day, your hunger simply melts away
08:53from eating just the bare necessities.
08:58A nobody doe, it's all so easy.
09:02A nobody doe doe, no cares, no strife.
09:07A nobody doe doe doe, no matter where we go,
09:12we'll find the bare necessities of life.
09:16We'll find the bare necessities of life.
09:20We'll find the bare necessities of life.
09:24A nobody doe.
09:36Monkey see, monkey do, everything much better than you.
09:41Tee-da-lee, doo-da-loo, monkey see, monkey do.
09:52Come admire us, little frog, we're the famous Vanderlog.
09:58No one else can ever be handsome, smart, and quick as we.
10:04Doo-da-loo, doo-da-loo, tee-da-lee, handsome, smart, and quick as we.
10:08Monkey see, monkey do, everything much better than you.

10:30Manners come with grace and ease, as we share each other's fleas.
10:35Doo-da-loo, doo-da-loo, tee-da-lee, as we share each other's fleas.
10:41Monkey see, monkey do, everything much better than you.
10:47Tee-da-lee, doo-da-loo, monkey see, monkey do.
10:57Brains and beauty never fail, who but us hangs from a tree.
11:02Brains and beauty never fail, who but us hangs by the tail.
11:08Noted for our repartee.
11:11Say, do you know why monkeys are so good looking?
11:15No, why?
11:17Because they look like me.
11:20Famous for our modesty, doo-da-loo, doo-da-loo, tee-da-lee.
11:26Famous for our modesty.
11:32Upward, upward, we won't stop, till we've reached the very top.
11:38We've led every beast and man.
11:41Man? Don't tell me this is a man.
11:45We were here when man began.
11:48Doo-da-loo, doo-da-loo, tee-da-lam.
11:51We were here when man began.
11:54Monkey see, monkey do, everything much better than you.
11:59Tee-da-lee, doo-da-loo,
12:02monkey see, monkey do.
12:05Tee-da-lee, doo-da-loo,
12:08monkey see, monkey do.
12:10Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof.
12:28Oh, Bug Hero, before you send me away, let me tell you something strange that happened.
12:33Last night I dreamed a most wonderful dream
12:41of places that I had once known.
12:48On the edge of the forest by a clear water stream
12:55was a garden of flowers full grown.
13:00But I knew, oh I knew, I had been there before
13:08down the dark path of memories I roam.
13:15And when I saw a house with a wide open door
13:22then I knew I belonged to that home.
13:30I knew, oh I knew, I belonged to it
13:36though it's all just a dream even so.
13:43It had something sweet as a song to it
13:50that someone had sung on the call.
13:56A voice of time long seemed to call out to me
14:04Welcome home, little wanderer.
14:10And when I saw the face I was longing to see
14:19I said, Mother, only Mother.
14:28And I knew I belonged to her.
14:48When the sun comes up, unbutton those eyes and jump right out of that bed.
14:54When the sun comes up, you should also rise or you're never gonna get ahead.
14:59If you love life and you like to eat your tooties, you shouldn't shirk.
15:05Get out in the world, move out on those feet, it's all
15:09in a day's work, in a day's work, in a day's work.
15:13Even this big earth moves on its axis
15:19and the sun gets up and shines from east to west.
15:24Each one to his job, cause these are what the facts is.
15:29What they can do, you can do a little too at best.
15:35Now the early bird who catches a worm can eat till he starts to burst.
15:40He can eat as much as a pachyderm cause he managed to get there first.
15:46So rise to the sun, start off on the run where the fruits and the berries all lurk.
15:52If you don't get your fill till day is done, it's all
15:56in a day's work, in a day's work, in a day's work.
16:10Why even this big earth moves on its axis
16:32and the sun gets up and shines from east to west.
16:36Each one to his job, cause these are what the facts is.
16:42What they can do, you can do a little too at best.
16:47And I don't mean rest.
16:49Now the early bird who catches a worm can eat till he starts to burst.
16:54He can eat as much as a pachyderm cause he managed to get there first.
16:59So rise to the sun, start off on the run where the fruits and the berries all lurk.
17:04If you don't get your fill till day is done, remember still you're the lucky one.
17:11You can eat till you weigh a ton.
17:14Oh, my poor stomach.
17:17But it's all in a day's work, in a day's work, in a day's work.
17:35It isn't fair to hate me when you know me very slightly.
17:43When you know me better than you can judge me rightly.
17:50And all who know me very well hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me.
17:57And all who know me very well hate me, hate me, hate me more than Tom can tell.
18:12Oh, I'm Shere Khan who fights alone.
18:15A demon I resemble.
18:18I have no friends to call my own.
18:22I make the jungle tremble.
18:24I'm cruel as the midday sun, all clad in black and yellow.
18:30And all who see me turn and run, though I'm a handsome fellow.
18:39Buldeo is my name of fame.
18:43I'm expert with the weapon.
18:45Shere Khan's the game I need to take.
18:49His carcass I shall step on.
18:51I shall step on.
18:53I'll meet my victim eye to eye.
18:56He knows just how I hate him.
18:59He'll have no time to say goodbye, for I'll exterminate him.
19:08It isn't fair to hate me when you know me very slightly.
19:14When you know me better than you can judge me rightly.
19:20And all who know me very well hate me, hate me, hate me more than Tom can tell.
19:35Buldeo seeks to take my life.
19:38How does he dare, I wonder, unless he wants a widowed wife as I tear him asunder.
19:45My fangs are sharp, my heart is cold, there's no time for complaining.
19:51His friends and family should be told, there won't be much remaining.
20:00As hunter, I'm invincible.
20:04I always get my quarry.
20:07I never, as a principal, let myself feel sorry.
20:12With elephant and antelope, my name is dreaded still.
20:18Shere Khan can only dare to hope for time to make his will.
20:29It isn't fair to hate me when you know me very slightly.
20:36When you know me better than you can judge me rightly.
20:43And all who know me very well hate me, hate me, hate me more than Tom can tell.
