The Lion King - Be Prepared (English HQ)

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
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!

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 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
Be prepared!

Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared -
Be prepared!

one of my earliest memories is my mom telling me that people never die in disney movies. i said, what about mufasa and scar? she looked me straight in the eye and said,

"SCAR WAS A F*CKING BASTARD."

TRIVIA TIME: Jeremy Irons (Scar) stops singing at 2:08 and Jim Cummings takes over the rest of the song! :D True Fact!!

For those of you who don't know Jim Cummings, he voices Pooh, Tigger, and Pete among other various Disney characters.

This was the scene of the movie that I always skipped as a child.
