Lizard Lizard Lizard is a CapCut greenscreen meme built around a Disney Pixar post-credits teaser where a cartoon green lizard repeatedly taps a screen and a robotic voice says the word 'lizard.'

Overview
The Lizard Lizard Lizard Elio Post Credit Scene, also called the Lizard Button or simply the Lizard Meme, is a CapCut greenscreen clip of a cartoon green lizard poking at a glowing screen while a synthetic voice repeats the word 'lizard'[1]. The animation first aired as a post-credits teaser after the 2025 Disney film Elio and was made to hype the upcoming Pixar movie Hoppers[3].
On TikTok the clip works as a reaction template, where the lizard's compulsive tapping stands in for someone doing a repetitive or obnoxious task[2]. Setups typically riff on annoying loops or on wordplay around the word 'lizard,' including double meanings and mishearings[3].

The clip broke out once it moved from movie theaters to TikTok. On July 27, 2025, the account @igreenscreenthings uploaded a greenscreen edit of the lizard tapping his button, and that upload pulled roughly 260,000 plays and 14,000 likes in two days[2]. That version became the template most creators built on.
The next day, on July 28, 2025, TikToker @victoria.somero posted an edit captioned about being overstimulated, which crossed 2 million plays and 200,000 likes inside a day[4].
