[Intro]
AmDmAmDm
I know that your powers of retention
EmAm
Are as wet as a warthog's backside.
Dm
But thick as you are pay attention
EmAm
My words are a matter of pride.
CmAm
It's clear from your vacant expressions,
CmAm
The lights are not all on upstairs.
GC
But we're talking kings, and successions,
Bm7b5E7
Even YOU can't be caught unawares...
AmDm
So prepare for the chance of a lifetime,
GC
Be prepared for sensational news...
EmAmDmG
A shining new era is tip-toeing nearer
EmAm
And where do we feature?
DmG
Just listen to teacher.
C
I know it sounds sordid,
C/Bb
But you'll be rewarded
A7Dm
When at last I am given my dues,
Bm7b5E
And injustice, deliciously squared,
EsusEAmF
Be prepared!
E7
Yeah, be prepared, heh, heh,
Am
We'll be prepared, heh.
For what?
Dm
For the death of the king!
Em
Why, is he sick?
Am
No fools, we're gunna kill him...
And Simba too...
Great idea, who needs a king?
DmEm
No king, no king, la la la la la la!
Am
Idiots! There will be a king!
Cm
Hey but you said er--
I WILL BE KING!
AmCm
Stick with me, and you'll never go hungry again!
Am
Yay, alright!
G
Yeah,alright!
C
Alright!
Long live the king,
Bm7b5E
Long live the king!
AmDm
It's great that we'll soon be connected
EmAm
With a king who'll be all time adored.
Dm
Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected,
EmAm
To take certain duties on board...
CmAm
The future is littered with prizes
CmAm
And though I'm the main addressee,
GG7C
The point that I must emphasize is,
Bm7b5E
YOU WON'T GET A SNIFF WITHOUT ME!
AmDm
So prepare for the coup of the century
GC
Be prepared for the murkiest scam
EmAmDmG
Meticulous planning, tenacity spanning,
EmAm
Decades of denial
DmG
Is simply why I'll
C
Be king undisputed,
C/Bb
respected, saluted,
A7Dm
And seen for the wonder I am.
Bm7b5E
Yes my teeth and ambitions are bared.
EsusEAm
Be Prepared!
Bm7b5E
Yes our teeth and ambitions are bared,
Am
Be prepared!
