I Just Can't Wait to Be King
I'm gonna be a mighty king, so enemies beware!
Well, 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
Well, 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, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait
To be king!
Well, 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
Well, 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, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait
To be king!
