_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I never thought I'd [Dm] use such _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ a crude, _ [Am] _ despicable thing. _ _ _
_ _ Maybe they have [Dm] a tiny amount of potential to [B] _ _ _ _
my [E] vision.
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
I [G] know that your powers of retention _ are as wet as a [Am] warthog's backside.
_ As thick as you are, pay [G] attention.
_ _ My words are a matter of [B]
[Am] pride.
[C] It's clear [Cm] from your [A] vacant expression, _ [C] the [Cm] lights in the hall are [Am] my status.
_ _ [G] We are talking kingly [C]
successions.
[E] Even you can't be caught unaware. _
[Am] _ So prepare for the chance [F] of a lifetime.
[G] Be prepared for sensational [C] _
news.
A shining [Am] new era [Dm] is [G] tiptoeing nearer.
[Em] And where do [Am] we feature?
[F] Just listen [G] to teacher.
[C] I know it sounds sordid, but you'll be rewarded [A] when at last I am given [Dm] my dues.
[B] And injustice _ [E] deliciously swear.
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ [F] Be prepared.
Yeah, be [Am] prepared.
We'll be prepared.
[D] For what?
For the death of the [G] king.
What, is he sick?
No, fool, [Am] we're gonna kill him.
[A] Simba too.
Great [Am] idea!
Who needs a [D] king?
No king, no king, [G] la la la la la la.
[Em] Idiots!

_ [Bm] _ _ [C] _ _
_ [G] King, king, [B] _ _ [E] _
king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king, king.
[Am] It's great that we'll soon be [Dm] prevented.
_ [G] But the king will be all time [Am] _
adored.
Of course, quid pro quo, [Dm] you expected.
_ [G] To take certain duties [Am] on board.
_ [Cm] The future is littered [Am] with lies.
_ [Cm] And though I have the many, [Am] see?
_ [G] The point that I must [C] emphasize is_
You [Em] won't get a sniff without me!
[C] Be [Am] prepared for the coup [Dm] of the century.
Be [G] prepared for the [C] murkiest _ scourge.
[Em] [Am] Meticulous planning [Dm] and capacitive [G] staggering.
[Em] [Am] Decades of denial [F] is [G] seeping wild.
[C] The king of this huge and respected saloon.
You [A] can see for the wonder [Dm] I am.
Yes, [G] my teeth and ambitions [E] are there.
[Am] Be prepared. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] Yes, our teeth and ambitions [Am] are there.
Be prepared.
