CAPO 4th FRET
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 main 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!
[You ve rather a long way to go,]
[young master, if you think...]
No one saying do this
[Now when I said that, I--]
No one saying be there
[What I meant was...]
No one saying stop that
[Look, 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... aagh!
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 waaaaaait ... to be king!
