Remember the song that Zazu sings to Scar when he is in his cage? Yea, I'ts "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts" Does anyone know ALL the words? I know the part sung in the movie, but I want to know the rest of the lyrics. I don't know any good website for this sort of thing.
What I know is...

"I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts
Here they are standing in a row
Big ones, small ones
Some as big as your head"

Anyone know the rest?? :) Thanks,

Down at an english fair one evening I was there
When I heard a showman shouting underneath the flair

I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts
There they are all standing in a row
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head
Give them a twist a flick of the wrist
That’s what the showman said
I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts
Every ball you throw will make me rich
There stands my wife, the idol of me life
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball, roll a bowl a ball
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts (they’re lovely)
There they are all standing in a row (one, two, three, four)
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head (and bigger)
Give them a twist a flick of the wrist
That’s what the showman said
I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts
Every ball you throw will make me rich
There stands my wife, the idol of me life
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch (all together now)
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch (harmony)
Roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch
Roll a bowl a ball, roll a bowl a ball
Singing roll a bowl a ball a penny a pitch

Here is a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts MIDI, but not necessary the best one.

It is not quite as peppy as the bit from the movie.
