| YOUNG SIMBA |
| 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 |
| No one saying be there |
| No one saying stop that |
| No one saying see here |
| Free to run around all day |
| Now when I said that -- |
| What I meant was -- |
| What you don’t realize -- |
| Now see here! |
| That’s definitely out! |

| 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 |

| 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! |
