I Just Can't Wait To Be King Lyrics

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

ZAZU Spoken
Well I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair

YOUNG 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 Spoken
Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing

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

YOUNG SIMBA
No one saying do this

ZAZU Spoken
Now when I said that

YOUNG NALA
No one saying be there

ZAZU Spoken
What I meant was

YOUNG SIMBA
No one saying stop that

ZAZU Spoken
What you don't realize

YOUNG NALA & YOUNG SIMBA
No one saying see here

ZAZU Spoken
Now see here!

YOUNG NALA & YOUNG SIMBA
Free to run around all day

ZAZU Spoken
That's definitely out!

YOUNG SIMBA
Free to do it all my way

ZAZU Spoken
I think it's time that you and I arranged a heart-to-heart

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

ZAZU Spoken
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 [sung] wing

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

YOUNG NALA
Everybody look right

YOUNG SIMBA
Everywhere you look I'm

YOUNG NALA & YOUNG SIMBA
Standing in the spotlight

ZAZU Spoken
Not yet!

YOUNG NALA, YOUNG SIMBA & 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

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

YOUNG NALA
Oh, he just can't wait to be king!

YOUNG SIMBA
Oh, I just can't wait...

YOUNG NALA
Just can't wait...

YOUNG SIMBA & YOUNG NALA
To be king!
