The Lion King - Be Prepared

All rights to the song and image belong to Disney.

This video's sole purpose is to help celebrate the wonderful music from The Lion King.

The song is from The Lion King Special Edition Soundtrack. (Which I highly recommend if you loved the movie!)

Enjoy!


Lyrics(As provided by the CD booklet):

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
(Oooooo, 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 undisputed
(Aaaaaaah!)
Respected, saluted
(Aaaaaaah!)
And seen for the wonder I am
(Aaaaaaah!)

Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!

Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!

Is it wrong that Scar was my favorite character??

[1stbrasscaptain]

The latter half of this song was done by Jim Cummings, he's an amazing voice actor. He started singing at this part, "You won't get a sniff without me!" He has quite the legacy in regards to voice acting...do yourself a favor and look him up, you shant be disappointed. ^_^

[Chayira1]

@SimiMckern Wait I just checked, and that ain't right! Jeremy Irons had the voice of Scar!

The guy who played Snape was Alan Rickman!

[Chayira1]

@SimiMckern Seriously??? They used the guy who played Snape to this???

[SimiMckern]

@Chayira1 Hehe, that's because it's the same actor. Found that out through my younger sister.
