    I was going to question Serpentine, since I always thought he used it as a verb, but then I remembered it’s a real mineral. I tip my hat to you, sir.

    wait a minute…
    i thought the village was outside the jungle…
    you know, the lion sleeps in the jungle near the village. i mean, if it’s a jungle, it couldn’t be a village. unless we’re talking about ewoks, but i don’t think that’s the case.

    Mind you, although “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” was first recorded in 1939 by Soloman Linda, under the title “Mbube” (Lion), its original Zulu lyrics didn’t translate into anything about jungles or villages, just a lion, and not even a particularly sleepy one. The “mighty jungle” and “peaceful/quiet village” lyrics weren’t added until the Tokens wrote new English lyrics in 1961.

    Um, Big Daddy? Try maybe Guns n’ Roses or Axl Rose

      That’s what I was thinking.
      Instead, whoever made this graph has used a song that I’m having trouble finding anywhere else on the internet.

      • Allah Sulu says:

        Play the video. It’s a mashup of both “Welcome to the Jungle” *and* “The Lion Sleeps Tonight”.
