I Just Can't Wait to be King
Music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
Performed by Elton John
Way beyond 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
And 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
The fauna and the flora gonna swing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
(Chorus)
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 f
