(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!
No one saying do this
(Nala)
No one saying be there
(Simba)
No one saying STOP that
(Simba and Nala together:)
No one saying 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!
(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)
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!
