Lion King Soundtrack - The Madness of King Scar
Scar:
Zazu, why am I not loved?
I am that rare and awesome thing
I’m every inch a king
Yet I feel a twinge of doubt
As I go walk about
Banzai:
Hey, boss!
Scar:
When my name is whispered through the pride
Is this talk of love or regicide?
Shenzi:
Reggie who?
Scar:
Tell me I’m adored
Please tell me I’m adored
Banzai:
Hey, boss!
Scar:
Oh, what is it?
Banzai:
We got a bone to pick with you
Shanzi:
There’s no food, no water —
Banzai:
Yeah. It’s dinnertime, and there ain’t no stinkin’ entries!
Scar:
Oh, you and your petty complaints.
You don’t know what real hunger is.
Day after day it gnaws at the very core of my being
Banzai:
I had that once. It was worms
Scar:
No, no, no... it’s like an itch... deep, persistent, profound...
Banzai:
That’s it – worms!
When they get really bad all you gotta do is... hunker down and scoot
Scar:
Thanks for the tip. Ingrates!
If it weren’t for me you’d be beating off buzzards for your next bite!
Shenzi & Banzai:
Yeah, you’re our savior, thanks a bunch
But how about some lunch?
It doesn’t matter if it s fresh
I need a fix of flesh
My bones have moved to where they’ve never been
They are on the outside looking in
Scar:
Are you blaming me?
Shenzi & Banzai:
Oh no, it s the lionesses
You are so adored
Oh, you are so adored
Scar:
That’s more like it
Shenzi & Banzai:
But what I’d give for one more hit
Of wildebeest kielbasa
Or maybe hornbill on the spit...
Zuzu:
Oh, how I miss Mufasa
Scar:
Mufasa?! Mufasa?!
How dare you!
I told you never to mention that name!
Zuzu:
Note taken. I shall never mention "M-m-m" again
Scar:
Even in death, his shadow looms over me
There he is! No! There he is! And there!
Zuzu:
Calm yourself,
Sire, or you’ll get another one of your splitting headaches!
Scar:
I am perfectly fine!
I’m better than Mufasa was
I’m revered
I am reviled
I’m idolized
I am despised
I’m keeping calm
I’m going wild!
I tell myself
I’m fine
Yes I am, no you’re not
Yes I am, no you’re not
I tell myself
I’m fine
No you’re not, yes I am, no you’re not
Yes I am No you’re not
Yes, no, yes, no, who am I talking to...?
Zazu:
Oh, pull yourself together, Sire!
Scar:
Oh, very well. Zazu? Zazu, Zazu, Zazu...?
Zazu:
Yes, Sire?
Scar:
Nobody loved me, there’s the rub, not even as a cub
What did my brother have that I don’t have?
Zazu:
Do you want the short list or the long?
Scar:
Whatever!
Zazu:
Well, he had adoring subjects... a loving family... a devoted queen...
Scar:
That’s it! I need a queen!
Zazu:
A what?
Scar:
A queen, man! A queen!
Without a queen, what am I?
A dead end, no line, no descendants, no future.
With a queen, I’ll have cubs...
Immortality will be mine!
Immortality will be mine!
Nala:
Scar
Scar:
Ah, Nala...
Your timing couldn’t have been more perfect.
My how you’ve grown
Nala:
Scar, you have got to do something. We’re being forced to overhunt
Scar:
She s got those assets feminine
Nala:
You’re the king. Control the hyenas
Scar:
I have to make her mine
Nala:
You’re destroying the Pridelands
Scar:
Nobility in every gene
Nala:
If we don’t stop now.. Don’t you see...
Scar:
She has to be my queen
Nala:
...there’s still a chance for things to be all right again...
Scar:
Come, sweet Nala It’s written in the stars
Nala:
What are you doing? Are you listening to me?
Scar:
We’ll create a host of little Scars
