[80s Theatrical Arena Rock] [Villain Anthem] [Minor Key] [Huge Choir Backing Vocals] [Operatic Glam Metal] [Marching Drums] [Synth Brass Stabs] [Shredding Guitar Solo] [Dramatic Key Change Finale] [Intro – Bright royal fanfare that turns ominous, drums stomp in] [Spoken, smug and slow] Oh this cat just can’t wait… To be king. [Crowd chant, distant and growing] THIS CAT… THIS CAT… [Verse 1 – Marching but theatrical, twisted Disney bounce] No more “wait your turn” advice No more playin’ sweet and nice No more humble little camp This cat’s done bein’ the amp When this cat ascends the throne Every jewel and brick is owned Every coin in every land Falls obedient to this pawed hand Gold in towers gold in seas Tax the mountains tax the trees Vaults so deep they scrape the core Still this cat will want some more [Pre-Chorus – Stop hits, dramatic] I’m through with minor royalty Through with small-time loyalty When this mane wears crown and flame You will know the name. [Chorus – Unmistakably Lion King parody rhythm but darker] I just can’t wait to be king! Hear the iron scepters ring! Every banner bow and bend— This cat’s rule will never end! Golden throne and endless claim— The world exists to serve the name! (KING CAT!!!!!) [Verse 2 – Darker, tyrant tone] When this cat begins his reign Silence follows like a chain Question him? You’ll disappear Whispers die when he draws near Deepest dungeon stone and key Buried where the sun can’t see Anyone who dares oppose Finds the dark and never knows And those three with smoke and sighs— Locked below where echo dies Key thrown far no mercy found Forty floors beneath the ground [Pre-Chorus – Choir rising] At his side in emerald light Tsani crowned in velvet might Queen of blade and holy fire Feeds the throne’s desire And when armies need a cry Christian splits the crimson sky Voice of war and anthem flame Sings the empire into fame [Chorus – Bigger, layered harmony] I just can’t wait to be king! Let the tyrant chorus sing! Mountains kneel and oceans part— Fear and glory from the start! Coin and crown and blazing fame— ALL FOREVER KNOW THE NAME! (KING CAT!!!!! KING CAT!!!!!) [Guitar Solo – Dramatic, theatrical, almost triumphant Disney energy turned sinister] [Bridge – Spoken, cold, echoing] You think this is ambition? This is destiny. You think this is greed? This is order. You think this cat wants applause? This cat wants obedience. And obedience… Is beautiful. [Breakdown – Heavy, stomping] Claw in velvet Crown in fire Rule by fear and fierce desire Every border every wing Belongs to this cat king YEAHHHHHHHH!!!! [Final Chorus – Key change, explosive, unmistakable parody climax] I JUST CAN’T WAIT TO BE KING!!!!! Hear the molten bells all ring!!!!! Dungeon deep and coffers wide— Queen and war-voice at his side!!!!! History bends and fate’s aflame— THE WORLD WILL NEVER FORGET THE NAME!!!!! (Crowd chant, frantic) THIS CAT! THIS CAT! THIS CAT! Gold like rivers power untamed— Bow forever to this cat’s reign!!!!! MEYOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!
