I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO BE KING
(The Lion King)

[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!

[Simba:]
No one saying do this

[Nala:]
No one saying be there

[Simba:]
No one saying stop that

[Nala:]
No one saying see here

[Zazu:]
Now see here!

[Simba:]
Free to run around all day
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

[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

[Simba:]
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
