No, this is not one of those threads with misleading titles. For reasons that I don't understand myself, I decided to see how one could use videos of well-known Disney songs to attempt to... I was gonna say "educate about the market" but I'm going to settle for "entertain".
Instructions:
1. Load the supplied Youtube video.
2. Read the transcription of the script that I supply below the video in time with the music.
Note: You may think that the words you hear do not match up exactly with those you read, but this is merely an illusion. Rest assured, that the crack team of world-famous linguists, musicians and sound technicians that live in my head have poured thousands of man-hours to ensure that what you read is what is actually being pronounced by the characters.
Video Number 1
The Lion King. After Scar got the star from Mufasa, he kicked Simba off the team for having a sucky build. Simba meets the Timon and Pumbaa (Meerkat -> Marketeer!?) and the following happens:

Hakuna Matata. It means buy low sell high!
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our farming-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata?
Yeah. It's our motto!
What's a motto?
Nothing. What's a-motto with you?
Those two words will solve all your problems
That's right. Take Pumbaa here
Why, when he was a young warthog...
When I was a young warthog
Very nice
Thanks
He found that his build lacked a certain appeal
He couldn't clear a spawn even after Rest!
I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never joined my team
And oh, the shame (He was ashamed)
Thought of changin' my name (It only ten bucks!)
And I got downhearted (How did ya feel?)
Every time that I...
Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
Oh. Sorry
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our farming-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna--
It means no worries for the rest of your days
(yeah, say it kid!)
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
(skip to 2:05)
Listen kid. If you team with us, you gotta flip like us.
Hey! This looks like a good niche to rustle up some inf!
Ew! What's that!
A flip, what's it look like?
Ew! Gross!
Tastes like profits.
Ebil yet satisfying.
These are rare Invention Sets.
Pricy with a very pleasant +rec
You'll learn to love 'em!
I'm tellin ya kid, this is the great life.
No exploits, no hostility...
Ooh! A Luck of the Gambler!
And best of all, no worries! Well, kid?
Oh well, Hakuna Matata.
/em eat
Ebil... yet satisfying.
That's it!
*cue sequence of Simba getting purpled out*
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our farming-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna Matata!
Hakuuuuna Ma-ta-ta
Awooooo-na Ma-ta-ta
Ha-ku-na Ma-ta-ta...
Video Number Two
Mary Poppins. In this clip, the children have just complained that flipping for inf is a boring chore. Mary Poppins attempts to teach them otherwise, as well as instructs them on how flipping reduces prices.

In ev'ry job that must be done
There is an element of fun
you find the fun and snap!
The job's a game
Nad ev'ry task you undertake
Becomes a piece of cake
A lark! Aspree!
It's very clear to see
That a...
Spoonful of flipping helps the prices go down
The prices go down-wown
The prices go down
Just a spoonful of flipping helps the prices go down
In a most delightful way
A flipper I-O-ing his nest
Has very little time to rest
While gathering his
Bids of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit
He has a merry tune to toot
He knows a song
Will move the job along
For a...
Spoonful of flipping helps the prices go down
The prices go down-wown
The prices go down
Just a spoonful of flipping helps the prices go down
In a most delightful way
The flipping bees that fetch the nectar
from the farmers to the comb
never tire of buzzing to and fro
because they take a little nip
from every niche that they sip
and hence (and hence)
they find (they find)
their task is not a grind.
Video Number Three
Beauty and the Beast. In this sequence, Gaston, global name @Gaston, is down in the dumps because he didn't get invited to closed beta. His Sidekick Lefou tries to cheer him up by reminding Gaston of his favourite activity, marketeering.
Video
Gosh it disturbs me to see you, @Gaston
Looking so down in the dumps
Ev'ry guy here'd love to be you, @Gaston
Even when taking your lumps
There's no man in town as admired as you
You're ev'ryone's favorite guy
Ev'ryone's awed and inspired by you
And it's not very hard to see why
No one's slick as @Gaston
No one's quick as @Gaston
No one's toons as incredibly rich as @Gaston's
For there's no man in town half as wealthy
Perfect, a pure Paragon!
You can ask any @Tom, @Dick or @Stanley
And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on
No one's been like @Gaston
A king pin like @Gaston
No one's got a swell niche in his screen like @Gaston
As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating!
My what a guy, that @Gaston!
Give five "hurrahs!"
Give twelve "hip-hips!"
@Gaston is the best
And the rest is all drips
No one flips like @Gaston
Bids quite like @Gaston
In market PVP nobody owns like @Gaston!
For there's no one as wealthy and braw ny
As you see I've got billions to spare
Not a bit of him's SO'd or scrawny
That's right!
And ev'ry last inch of me's slotted in purples !
No one flips like @Gaston
Matches wits like @Gaston
In a flipping match nobody flips like @Gaston
I'm especially good at arbitrage!
Ten points for @Gaston!
When I was a lad I flipped four dozen slots
Ev'ry morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown I flip five dozen slots
So my wallet's the size of a barge!
Oh, ahhh, wow!
My what a guy, that @Gaston!
No one flips like @Gaston
Makes those bids like @Gaston
Then goes tromping around owning mobs like @Gaston
I use purples in all of my enhancement slots!
My what a guy,
@Gaston!
I hope you find it amusing.
