There they are!
The lost boys of the jungle, can you see?
There they are!
Hiding in the bushes and the trees
I see them now!
Not animals!
They're little boys, like you and me
Boys, come on out!
Don't be afraid
I've got some friends
Come and meet them!
We're the lost boys of the jungle
We live like monkeys, boars, and tigers
Living proud among the trees
No one's gonna stop us dancing
No one to boss us around
We're the lost boys of the jungle
And we dance to our own drum!
Wanna be one of us?
It's not so easy!
Wearing fur and sticks and leaves!
Boys, come on now!
Don't be so rough!
Don't act so tough!
They're here to teach us how to be like
They think we smell!
They think we're dumb!
Look down on us
Cos' we can't read or spell!
Can you read the leaves and flowers?
Read the sun to tell the hour?
Can you find your way down-river?
Carve your arrows, bow and quiver?
Can you tame the giant boar
And match the tiger's ROAR?
We're the lost boys of the jungle
We can do all this and more!
So Wendy, will you be our mother?
Oh. Well, I'm not sure your real mothers will like that.
Well, if you can't be our real mother, can you be our pretend mother?
A pretend mother?
Ya, so our real mothers won't be upset.
I guess I could be your pretend mother.
But what does a mother do?
Think of kisses on the forehead
Someone to tuck you into bed (Ooh...)
Think of stories, in the moonlight
Tales from places far away (Far away...)
Noble princes, golden treasure
Tales you never have heard (Never heard...)
I'd be proud to be your mother
And I give you my word!
We're the lost boys of the jungle
We live like monkeys, boars, and tigers
Living proud among the trees (Ooh, ah!)
Now we've got a lovely mother
Someone to love us again!
We're the lost boys of the jungle, never lonely again!
Oh, lost boys of the jungle
Never lonely again!
