• 08 Be Prepared

[Scar:]

I never thought hyenas essential:
They're crude and unspeakably plain,
But may be they've a glimmer of potential
If allied to my vision and brain.

I know that your powers of retention
Are as wet as a warthog's backside,
But thick as you are, pay attention,
My words are a matter of pride.

It's clear from your vacant expressions -
The lights are not all on upstairs,
But we're talking kings and successions,
Even you can't be caught unawares!

So prepare for a chance of a lifetime,
Be prepared for sensational news.
A shining new era
Is tiptoeing nearer

[Shenzi:]

And where do we feature?

[Scar:]

Just listen to teacher:
I know it sounds sordid,
But you'll be rewarded
When at last I am given my dues!
And injustice deliciously squared!
Be prepared!

[Banzai:]

Yeah! Be prepared!
We'll be prepared. For what?

[Scar:]

For the death of the king!

[Banzai:]

Is he sick?

[Scar:]

No, fool! We're going to kill him... and Simba too!

[Shenzi:]

Great idea! Who needs a king?

[Banzai and Shenzi:]

No king, no king, nah nah nah nah nah nah!

[Scar:]

Idiots! There will be a king!

[Banzai:]

But you said...

[Scar:]

I will be king!
Stick with me, and you'll never be hungry again!

[Banzai and Shenzi:]

Yay, all right!
Long live the king!
Long live the king!

[Hyenas:]

It's great that we'll soon be connected
With a king who'll be all-time adored!

[Scar:]

Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected
To take certain duties on board.
The future is littered with prizes,
And though I'm the main addressee,
The point that I must emphasize is:
You won't get a sniff without me

[Scar and Hyenas:]

So prepare for the coup of the century,
Be prepared for the murkiest scam!

[Scar:]

Meticulous planning,
Tenacity spanning,
Decades of denial
Is simply why I'll
Be king undisputed,
Respected, saluted
And seen for the wonder I am!
Yes my teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!
Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!
