Way behind the water hole, a little down the line
The jungle and the plains and peaks are scheduled to be mine
I'm gonna be the ruler of most everything around
From the grandest of the mountains to the humble common ground
My reign will be a super awesome thing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
ย
I'm gonna be a noble king and scrupulously fair
I only need a little time, perhaps a little hair
I'm gonna be the main event like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down, I'm working on my roar
The fauna and the flora gonna swing
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
I'll be free to do it my way
ย
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
Free to do it my way
ย
The time has come as someone said to talk of many things
It may be true, but I would rather stick to talking kings
It's easy to be royal, oh, if you're leonine
It isn't just my right even my left will be divine
The monarchy is waiting to go zing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Oh, oh, oh, I just can't wait to be king
Oh
Oh
Oh

Oh
Oh
Oh
