Be Prepared (The Lion King: Next Generation)

Be Prepared is a song sung by Kidogo in The Lion King: Next Generation. It is like the original song, but words have been swapped around to suit Kidogo’s manner, and the motive has been changed..

Song
Kidogo 

I never thought you guys as essential

But you’re crude, and very well plain

Maybe you’ve got some potential

If used correctly with my brain

Now, your powers of retention

Are as wet as a warthog’s backside

But even if you are thick, please, your attention?

All I say is all my pride

All of you with those vacant expressions

You’re not all the best upstairs

But, please, we’re talking kings and successions

Even you can’t be caught unawares!

So prepare, this is a chance of a lifetime

Be prepared, for the great news

A shining, new era

Coming so nearer

Dakika

And where do we feature?

Kidogo 

Just listen to teacher

I know it sounds sordid

But we’ll be rewarded

When finally, I have my dues

And the injustice deliciously squared

Be prepared!

Dakika 

Yeah, be prepared!

Kubwa 

We’ll be prepared...

For what?

Kidogo 

For the death of the king

Kubwa 

Why, is he sick?

Kidogo 

No, fool, we’re gonna kill him

And Akili too.

Kubwa 

Great idea! Who needs a king?

Dakika and Kubwa

No king, no king, no king, la la la la

Kidogo 

Idiots! There will be a king!

Dakika 

But you said-

Kidogo 

I will be king!

Stick with me, and we will rule the Pride Lands together!

Dakika and Kubwa 

Yay! Alright! Long live the king!

Hyena Army 

Long live the king, long live the king!

King, king, king, king, king, king

It’s great that we’ll all be connected

With a king, one perfectly adored

Kidogo

Of course, my friends, you are expected

To have several details on board

The future contains perfect little prizes

Even though I’m the main addressee.

I’m going to emphasise something, that is

You won’t be anywhere near without me!

So prepare for the event of the century

Be prepared for our little scam

The best of planning

All of us spanning

Decades of denial

Is simply why I’ll

Be king, the undisputed

Respected, saluted

And seen, for the wonder I am!

Yes, I’m ready for this and bared

Be prepared

Yes, we’re ready for this and bared

Be prepared!
