The Lion King

"Be Prepared"
=====================================
[Scar]
I know that your powers of retention
Are as wet as a warthog's backside
But thick as you are, pay attention
My words are a matter of pride

It's clear from your vacant expressions
The lights are not all on upstairs
But we're talking kings and successions
Even you can't be caught unawares

So prepare for a chance of a lifetime
Be prepared for sensational news
A shining new era
Is tiptoeing nearer
[Shenzi]
And where do we feature?
[Scar]
Just listen to teacher

I know it sounds sordid
But you'll be rewarded
When at last I am given my dues
And injustice deliciously squared
Be prepared!

[Hyennas]
It's great that we'll soon be connected
With a king who'll be all-time adored

[Scar]
Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected
To take certain duties on board
The future is littered with prizes
And though I'm the main addressee
The point that I must emphasize is
You won't get a sniff without me!

[Scar] So prepare for the coup of the century Be prepared for the murkiest scam Meticulous planning Tenacity spanning Decades of denial Is simply why I'll Be king undisputed Respected, saluted And seen for the wonder I am Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared

[Hyennas] Oooh! Oooh... La! La! La! We'll have food! Lots of food We repeat Endless meat Aaaaaaah... ...aaaaaaah... ...aaaaaaah! Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

[Scar]
Be prepared!
[Hyennas]
Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared -
Be prepared!

Simba's Pride

"My Lulaby"
=====================================
[Zira]
Sleep, my little Kovu
Let your dreams take wing
One day when you're big and strong
You will be a king

I've been exiled, persucuted
Left alone with no defense
When I think of what that brute did
I get a little tense

But I dream a dream so pretty
That I don't feel so depressed
'Cause it soothes my inner kitty
And it helps me get some rest

The sound of Simba's dying gasp
His daughter squealing in my grasp
His lionesses' mournful cry
That's my lullaby

Now the past I've tried forgetting
And my foes I could forgive
Trouble is I knows it's petty
But I hate to let them live

[Nuka]
So you found yourself somebody who'd chase Simba up a tree
[Zira]
Oh, the battle may be bloody, but that kind of works for me

The melody of angry growls
A counterpoint of painful howls
A symphony of death, oh my!
That's my lullaby

Scar is gone... but Zira's still around
To love this little lad
Till he learns to be a killer
With a lust for being bad!

[Nuka]
Sleep, ya little termite!
Uh-- I mean, precious little thing!
[Vitani]
One day when you're big and strong
[Zira]
You will be a king!

The pounding of the drums of war
The thrill of Kovu's mighty roar

[Nuka]
The joy of vengeance
[Vitani]
Testify!
[Zira]
I can hear the cheering
[Nuka and Vitani]
Kovu! What a guy!

[Zira]
Payback time is nearing
And then our flag will fly
Against a blood-red sky
That's my lullaby!
