Kaa: In this tree
I see all the jungle
Everything
Is quiet everyday
In this tree
I see all the animals
Who stop to say
Rhino: Hello!
Monkey: Hi there!
Elephant: Hello!
Parrot: Hello!
Fish: Nice day!

Kaa: There goes King Louie, that primate with rhythm
He holds his kingdom in his paw
Every morning it’s the same
Since the moment that I came
To this jungle and this tree
Louie: (Good morning, Kaa!)
Kaa: (Good morning, Your Highness.)
Louie: (Where you off to?)
Kaa: (Rodent grounds. My associate found a fresh pack of jungle mice and rats-)
Louie: (That’s nice. Subjects! The bananas! Hurry up!)

Peacocks: Look, there he goes, that snake is odd, no question
He keeps the jungle folk in awe
Female Peacock: With those mesmerizing eyes
Male Peacock: He will catch you by surprise
Peacocks: Then he’ll wrap you up and gulp you down
That Kaa

Hathi: Hello!
Kaa: Good day!
Hathi: How is your sinus?
Kaa: Not bad. And you?
How is your wife?
Hathi: I can’t complain
Though she is fussy
Kaa: There must be more than this lethargic life.

Coils: (Ah, Kaa!)
Kaa: (Hello, Coils!)
Coils: (How were those field mice from yesterday?)
Kaa: (Very excellent, thank you. Anything new today?)
Coils: (Not since the migration.)
Kaa: (Ah, that’s all right. I’ll take…some of these.)
Coils: (Those? You’ve had them so many times!)
Kaa: (They’re my favorites! Piquant flavor, smooth fur, good ballast for an empty stomach-)
Coils: (Well, since you’re such a valued customer, they’re yours, free of charge.)
Kaa: (But, Coils-)
Coils: (I insist! On the house!)
Kaa: (Well, thank you! That’s very nice!)

Elephants: Look there he goes, that slinking two-faced trickster
He says trust him, as if a law
Female Elephant: But the moment you’re secure
Male Elephant: He will eat you, we are sure
Elephants: So you’re never safe when you’re around
That Kaa

Kaa: Ah, aren’t these delicious?
They’re my favorite kind, thought I hate to gloat
See how they’re smooth and silky
And they go down smoothly and don’t stick in my throat
* gulp * Ah!

Baloo: We’re not sure what his name could mean in English
But one thing’s clear, he’s naught but jaw
Bagheera: Though beneath that cruel facade
I must say, he’s sort of odd
For he’s nothing like the rest of us
Baloo: That snake is nothing much like us
Crowd: He’s really not like all of us
That Kaa

Buzzard: (An excellent kill, Shere Khan! You’re the best hunter of all!)
Shere Khan: (Too true.)
Buzzard: (But I’m surprised you don’t have someone to follow in your footsteps.)
Shere Khan: (Fear not, my scavenging friend. That big worm is perfect!)
Buzzard: (You mean Kaa?)
Shere Khan: (He’s the one! He’ll carry on my legacy!)
Buzzard: (But, sir, Kaa is-)
Shere Khan: (He’s sneaky and mesmerizing, so he’s the best! And don’t I deserve to pass on my life to the best?)
Buzzard: (Naturally, sir!)

Shere Khan: Right from the moment that I met him, saw him
I had him eating from my claw
Though a bumbler, you see
He’s ruthless, just like me
So I’ll have an heir in the shape and form of Kaa

Turtles: Look there! You see!
Here comes Shere Khan!
He makes me sick!
Look at that stride
He tried to kill
Poor little Mowgli
But that man-cub showed him
Made him run and hide

Rhino: Hello!
Shere Khan: Buzz off!
Buzzard: Whuzzat?
Shere Khan: Shut up!
Bagheera: I sense some trouble
Baloo: Relax, old bud
We’ll reach that climb
Bagheera: I hope you’re right
Shere Khan is crafty
Kaa: This jungle carries such sluggish time!
Shere Khan: I’ll soon leave Kaa the fruits of all my crime!

Animals: Look, there he goes, the snake we’re all afraid of
He’s dangerous, look at that maw
Female Animals: Though he’s goofy and a clown
Male Animals: We must really lay it down
Animals: That there’s no one else as dangerous
As sneaky, sly, or devious
No animal is dangerous
Like Kaa!
