Lyrics

I'm (G)gonna be a mighty king,

so enemies beware!

Well, I've (C)never seen a king of beasts with quite so little (G)hair.

I'm gonna be the mane event,

like no king was before.

I'm (C)brushing up on looking down,

I'm working on my (G)roar!

Thus (Am)far, a rather (G)uninspiring (D)thing.

Oh, I (C)just can't (D)wait to be (G)king!

Noone saying (C)"Do this,"

noone saying (Am)"Be there,"

noone saying (D7)"Stop that,"

noone saying (G)"See here."

(C)Free to run (Am)around all (D)day,

(C)free to do it (D7)all my (G)way!

I think it's time that you and I arranged a hearttoheart.

(C)Kings don't need (Am)advice from little (G)hornbills,

(D7)for a (G)start.

If this is where the monarchy is headed,

(D7)count me out!

Out of (C)service, out of Africa,

I (G)wouldn't hang about.

This (Am)child is getting wildly (G)out of (D)wing!

Oh, I (C)just can't (D)wait to be (G)king!
