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


I'm going to be a noble king
So enemies beware
I only need a little time

Perhaps a little hair

I'm gonna be the main event

Like no king 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


Nobody saying do this
Nobody saying be there
Nobody saying stop that

Nobody saying see here
Free to run around all day
I'll be free to do it my way


I wanna be king


(HOLD)

Nobody saying do this

Nobody saying be there
Nobody saying stop that
Nobody saying see here

Free to run around all day, yeah
I'll be free to do it my way


The time has come
As someone said
To talk of many things

This may be true
But I would rather stick to talking kings


It's easy to be royal
If you're already leonine
It isn't just my right

Even my left will be divine
The monarchy is waiting to go zing, yeah
Oh, I just can't wait to be king


Oh... Oh... Oh I just can't wait to be king
Oh, yeah... oh oh oh

King of the world, yeah
Oh (Oh)... Oh (Oh)... Oh I just can't wait to be king
I wanna be king

Come on
