SanatBe Prepared

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 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

Yeah, be prepared

Haha! We'll be prepared

For what?

For the death of the king

Why? Is he sick?

No, fool, we're

going to 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

I will be king! Stick with

me, and you'll never

go hungry again

Yeah! Alright

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 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
