Lyrics:
Simba:I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware!
Zazu:Well,
I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair
Simba:I'm gonna be
the mane event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my ROAR
Zazu:Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing
Simba:Oh, I just can't
wait to be king!
Zazu:You've rather a long way to go, young master,
if you think...
Simba:No one saying do this
Zazu:(Now when I said that, I -)
Nala:No one saying be there
Zazu:(What I meant was...)
Simba:No one saying stop that
Zazu:(Look, what you don't realize...)
Simba & Nala:No one saying see here
Zazu:(Now see here!)
Simba:Free to run around all day
Zazu:(Well, that's definitely out...)
Simba:Free to do it all my way!
Zazu:I think it's time that
you and I
Arranged a heart to heart
Simba:Kings don't need advice
From little
hornbills for a start
Zazu:If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out!
Out
of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about
This child is getting wildly out of wing
Simba:Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standing
in the spotlight!
Zazu:Not yet!
All Animals:Let
every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling
Oh,
I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't waaaaaait ... to be king!
