- "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts" is a novelty song written by Fred Heatherton, a songwriting pseudonym for a collaboration of English songwriters. It is sung by Zazu to Scar. However, after singing a few lyrics, Zazu complains that he would never have had to do this for Mufasa. The version sung in the film was not included in the soundtrack or its expanded version.
