. Simba, Nala, Chorus


I'm gonna be a mighty king, so enemies beware!

     iI've never seen a king of beasts
    With quite so little hair

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

    Thus far a rather uninspiring thing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

No one saying do this        
No one saying be there         
No one saying stop that
No one saying see here        
Free to run around all day
Free to do it all my way!


Now when I said that--
What I meant was--
What you don't realize--
What you don't realize--
Now see here!
That's definitely out--

I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart-to-heart

Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start


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

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Everybody look left

Everybody look right

Everywhere you look I'm--

Standing in the spotlight

Not yet

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, he just can't wait to be king!

Oh, I just can't wait...

Just can't wait

To be king!
