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: {Speaking} 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 and 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... aagh!
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: {Speaking, but in strict time} Not yet!
Chorus: 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 & Chorus: 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!
