Circle of Life

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle..
The circle of life!

I Just Can't Wait to Be King

[Simba:]
I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware!

[Zazu:]
Well 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!

[Zazu:]  
You've a rather long way to go,
Young master, if you think...

[Simba:] No one saying do this

[Zazu:]  Now when I said that I...

[Nala:] No one saying be there

[Zazu:]  For one...

[Simba:] No one saying stop that!

[Zazu:]  (mumbling)

[Nala:] No one saying see here

[Zazu:] Now see here!

[Simba:]
Free to run around all day
Free to do it my way!

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

[Simba]
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
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standing in the spotlight

[Zazu:]  Not yet!!!

[Animals:] 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

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

Be Prepared

[Scar:]
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 tip-toe-ing 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!

[Hyena:]
Yea, we'll be prepared... be prepared for what?

[Scar:] For the death of the king!

[Hyena:] Why? Is he sick?

[Scar:]
No, fool, we're going to kill him... and Simba too!

[Hyena:]
Great idea! Who needs a king?

[3 Hyenas:]
No king, No king, nah nah nah nah nah nah!

[Scar:] Idiots! There will BE a king!

[Hyena:] Hey, but you just said uh...

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

[3 Hyenas:]
YEA!!!!!! Long live the king!
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!!

So prepare for the coup of the century
Be prepared for the murkiest scam
(Ooooh, lah, lah, lah!)
Meticulous planning
(We'll have food!)
Tenacity spanning
(Lots of food)
Decades of denial
(We repeat)
Is simply why I'll
(Endless meat)
Be king undisputed
(Aaaaaaaaaah!)
Respected, saluted
(Aaaaaaaaaah!)
And seen for the wonder I am
(Aaaaaaaaaah!)

Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!

[ All Hyenas:]
Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!

Hakuna Matata

[Timon:]
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase

[Pumbaa:]
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze

[Timon:]
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
When he was a young warthog

[Pumbaa:]
When I was a young warthog

[Timon:]
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savannah after ev'ry meal

[Pumbaa:]
I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
And, oh, the shame!

[Timon:]  He was ashamed...

[Pumbaa:]  Thought of changin' my name!

[Timon:]  Oh, what's in a name...

[Pumbaa:]
And I got downhearted
Ev'rytime that I...

[Timon:] Hey, Pumbaa!  Not in front of the kids!

[Pumba:] Oh, sorry.

[Both:] Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze

[Simba:]
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy

[All:] Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata...Hakuna Matata... Hakuna Matata...

It means no worries!
For the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy

Can You Feel the Love Tonight

[Timon:]   I can see what's happ'ning

[Pumbaa:]   What?

[Timon:]  And they don't have a clue!

[Pumbaa:]   Who?

[Timon:]
They'll fall in love and here's the bottom line
Our trio's down to two

[Pumbaa:]  Oh.

[Timon:]
The sweet caress of twilight
There's magic in the air
And with all this romantic atmosphere
Disaster's in the air

[Choir:]
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things

[Simba:]
So many things to tell her
But how to make her see
The truth about my past? Impossible!
She'd turn away from me

[Nala:]
He's holding back, he's hiding
But what, I can't decide
Why won't he be the king I know he is
The king I see inside?

[Choir:]
Can you feel the love tonight?
You needn't look too far
Stealing through the night's uncertainties
Love is where they are

[Timon:]
And if he falls in love tonight
It can be assumed
His carefree days with us are history
In short, our pal is doomed!

(They both cry...)
