Way beyond the water hole
A little down the line
The jungle and the planes and picks are scheduled to be mine
I'm gonna be the ruler of 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 gonna be a noble king
Scrupulously fair
I only need a little time'
Perhaps a little hair
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
???
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!

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!

The time is come as someone said
To talk of many things
It's maybe true but I would rather stick to talking king
It's easy to be right to ???
???
???
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
