The Lion King - Be Prepared lyrics

Your rating:

[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 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!
[Hyena:?] Be prepared for what?
[Scar:]   For the death of the king!
[Hyena:?] Why? Is he sick?
[Scar:]   No, you fool, we`re going to kill him... and Simba too!
[Hyena:?] Great idea! Who needs a king?
[Hyenas:] No king, No king, nah nah nah nah nah nah!
[Scar:]   Idiots!  There will BE a king!
[Hyena:?] But you just said...
[Scar:]   *I* will be king!
          Stick with me, and you`ll never be hungry again!
[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!)
          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!
[Hyenas:] Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared
          Be prepared!
