CIRCLE OF LIFE
performed by Carmen Twillie and Lebo M
music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
~
Nants ingonya-ma bagithi baba
Sithi ummm 'gonyama
Nants ingonya-ma bagithi baba
Nengw' enambala-wa
Siyo nqoba-la
~
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
(repeat)
~
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
~
There's far to much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
~
It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
'Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
~
It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
'Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO BE KING
performed by Jason Weaver and Laura Williams feat Rowan Atkinson
music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
~
I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware
Well I've never seen a king of beasts
with quite so 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
~
Thus far a rather uninspiring thing
~
Oh I just can't wait to be king!
~
(You've rather a long way to go, young master. If you think...)
~
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
(Well, that's definetely out)
Free to do it all my way
~
I think it's time that you and I arranged a heart-to-heart
King's don't need advice from little hornbills, for a start
If this is where the monarchy is headed, count me out!
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about!
This child is getting wildly out of wing
~
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
~
Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm standin' in the spotlight ]
~
(Not yet!)
~
Let every creature go for broke and sing!
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing!
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling!
~
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait... to be king!
BE PREPARED
performed by Jeremy Irons, Whoopi Goldberg, Cheech Marin, and Jim Cummings
music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
~
I never thought hyenas essential
They're crude and unspeakably plain
But maybe they've a glimmer of potential
If allied to my vision and brain
~
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 the chance of a life time
Be prepared for sensational news
A shining new era is tip-toeing nearer
(And where do we feature?)
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!
~
Yeah, be prepared, we'll be prepared... for what?
For the death of the king?
Why? Is he sick?
No fool! We're gonna kill him! And Simba too!
Great idea! Who needs a king?!
No king, no king, la la la la la la!
Idiots! There will be a king!
Hey, but you said, uh...
I will be king! Stick with me and you'll never go hungry again!
Yaaay! All right! Long live the king!
Long live the king!
Long live the king!
~
It's great that we'll soon be connected
With a king who'll be all time adored
~
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!
~
So prepare for coup of the century!
Be prepared for the murkiest scam! (la-la-la)
~
Meticulous planning! (We'll have food)
Tenacity spanning! (Lots of food)
Decades of denial, (We repeat)
Is simply why I'll (endless meat)
~
Be king undesputed
Respected, saluted
And seen for the wonder I am
Yes my teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!
~
Yes our teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!
HAKUNA MATATA
performed by Nathan Lane, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, and Joseph Williams
music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice

---DELETED VERSE---
When I was a young meerkat
When he was a young meerkat!
Very nice
Thanks!
I worked in the colony, payin' my dues
Accepting without question the prevailing views
That a meerkats life was one long grind
Diggin' holes, standin' guard 'till it crossed my mind
I was wrong
(he was wrong!)
And all alone
(all alone!)
All that I needed
(what did you need?)
Was to have heeded
(sing it, Timon!)
---END OF DELETED VERSE---
~
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
~
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
~
Why, when he was a young warthog...
When I was a young wart hog!
Very nice
Thanks!
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savannah after every meal
I'm a sensitive soul, though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
And oh, the shame
(He was ashamed!)
Thought of changin' my name
(Oh, what's in a name?)
And I got downhearted
(How did you feel?)
Ev'rytime that I...
Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
Oh... sorry.
~
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
Yeah, sing it, kid!
It's our problem-free
philosophy...
Hakuna Matata!
~
Hakuna matata
[Repeats]
~
It means no worries
For the rest of your days.
It's our problem-free philosophy

CAN YOU FEEL THE LOVE TONIGHT?
performed by Sally Dworsky, Joseph Williams, Kristle Edwards, Nathan Lane, and
Ernie Sabella
music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice
~ I can see what's happening
(What?)
And they don't have a clue
(Who?)
They'll fall in love and here's the bottom line
Our trio's down to two
(Oh)
The sweet caress of twilight
There's magic everywhere
And with all this romantic atmosphere
Disaster's in the air
~
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world for once in perfect harmony
With all its living things
~
So many things to tell her
But how to make her see
The truth about my past?
Impossible! She'd turn away from me
~
He's holding back, he's hiding
But what? I can't decide
Why won't he be the king I know he is,
the king I see inside?
~
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world for once in perfect harmony
With all its living things
~
Can you feel the love tonight?
You needn't look too far
Stealing through the nights uncertanties
Love is where they are
~
And if he falls in love tonight
It can be assumed
His every days with us are history
In short, our pal is doomed!
