Here's my take on the first part of the short version (hopefully you
can sing along to the original melody):

j-mifri tai lo / kasbi'e / bu'u / la dakbyg [i]
Life is like a / hurricane / here in / Duckburg

j-vima'e ja gusxa'i / ja vinji / - (not sure what "blur" means here) [i]
Race cars, lasers, / aeroplanes / - it's a duck blur

da'i ua.ua- / -nainai / i da'i ninter- / -citri [i]
You might solve a / mystery / or rewrite / history

datka lis- / -ri [i]
DuckTales (oooh / ooooh)

de'i ro da / vi'u gasnu [i]
Every day they're / out there making

datka lis- / -ri [i]
DuckTales (oooh / ooooh)

ka darsi i / fliba ja snada
Tales of daring / do bad and good

funca lis- / -ri
LuckTales (oooh / ooooh)
