Duties of the King  Lyrics

Zazu: Everyone in the Pride Lands big or small
Looks forward to whenever you may call
A visit from Your Highness is an honor, yes, it’s true
All your subjects want so much to be with you!

So embrace your position
The royal tradition
Delighting the Pride Lands with every little thing
In all of the wonderful duties of the king

You welcome herds from all around
Grand gazelles, their grazing ground
Approve the official turaco whistles
Guard the clearing of pointy thistles

Reside over aardvark wedding rites
Coach some mongooses on their bite
Listen to the zebras’ silly pleas
And bless any animal when they sneeze!

So embrace your position
The royal tradition
Delighting the Pride Lands with every little thing
In all of the wonderful duties of the king
In all of the wonderful duties of the king

You set the limit on bushbuck hopping
Judged the hippos’ belly-flopping
Considered crocodiles’ complaints
And tend to kiss baby porcupines oh-so-gently

Simba: Assign the songbirds to their trees
Advise confused chimpanzees
Ceremonial mating of the bees
Zazu: And sowing giraffes when they get fleas
Simba: Actually, that’s not much fun.
Zazu: The fleas do tend to spread
But that said

So embrace your position
Simba: The royal tradition
Zazu: Delighting the Pride Lands with every little thing
In all of the wonderful
Simba: In all of the wonderful

Both: In all of the wonderful
Duties of the king!
In all of the wonderful
Duties of the king!
