Music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
Performed by Geoff Hoyle, Scott Irby-Ranniar, and Kajuana Shuford

Simba:
I'm gonna be a mighty king, so enemies beware!

Zazu:
I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair

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:
Thus far a rather uninspiring thing

Simba:
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

Simba:
No one saying do this

Zazu:
Now when I said that--

Nala:
No one saying be there

Zazu:
What I meant was--

Simba:
No one saying stop that

Zazu:
What you don't realize--

Both:
No one saying see here
Now see here!
Free to run around all day
That's definitely out--
Free to do it all my way!

Zazu:
I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart-to-heart

Nala:
Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start

Zazu:
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

Simba:
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Everybody look left

Nala:
Everybody look right

Both:
Everywhere you look I'm--

Standing in the spotlight

Zazu:
Not yet

Simba, Nala, 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

Both:
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

Nala:
Oh, he just can't wait to be king!

Both:
Oh, I just can't wait...

Nala:
Just can't wait

Both:
To be king!
