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

I'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      Now when I said that-- 

No one saying be there      What I meant was-- 

No one saying stop that      What you don't realize-- 

No one saying see here      Now see here! 

Free to run around all day   That's definitely out-- 

Free to do it all my way! 

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!
