Lyrics Brian Wilson

Brian Wilson

I Just Can't Wait to Be King

Way behind the water hole

A little down the line

The jungle and the plains and peaks

Are scheduled to be mine

Gonna be the ruler of everything around

From the grandest of the mountains

To the humble common ground

My reign will be a super awesome thing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king

I'm gonna be a noble king

Scrupulously fair

I only need a little time

Perhaps a little hair

I'm gonna be the mane event

Like no king was before

I'm brushing up on looking down

I'm working on my roar

The fauna and the flora gonna swing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king

No one saying, "Do this"

No one saying, "Be there"

No one saying, "Stop that"

No one saying, "See here"

Free to run around all day

I'll be free to do it my way

No one saying, "Do this"

No one saying, "Be there"

No one saying, "Stop that"

No one saying, "See here"

Free to run around all day

I'll be free to do it my way

The time has come as someone said

To talk of many things

This may be true

But I would rather stick to talking kings

It's easy to be royal if you're mighty leonine

It isn't just my right, even my left will be divine

The monarchy is waiting to go zing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king

Just can't wait, wait to be king

Just can't wait

Just can't wait, wait to be king

Just can't wait

Just can't wait, wait to be king

Just can't wait
