[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]I never thought hyenas essenti[Dm]al
[Em]They're crude and unspea[Am]kably plain
But maybe they've a [Dm]glimmer of potential
[Bm]If allied to my visi[E]on and brain
[F][E]

[Interlude 1]
[Am][Am][Dm][Dm]

[Verse 2]
I [Am]know that your powers of re[Dm]tention
Are as [G]wet as a warthog's back[Am]side
But thick as you are, pay at[Dm]tention
My [G]words are a matter of [Am]pride
It's [Cdim7]clear from your vacant expre[Am]ssions
The [Cdim7]lights are not all on upst[Am]airs
But [G]we're talking kings and suc[C]cessions
Even [Dm]you can't be caught u[E]nawares

[Chorus 1]
So pre[Am]pare for a chance of a [Dm]lifetime
Be pre[G]pared for sensational [C]news
A [Em]shining new [Am]era
Is [Dm]tiptoeing [G]nearer
And [Em]where do we [Am]feature?
Just [Dm]listen to [G]teacher
I [C]know it sounds sordid
But you'll be rewarded
When at [A]last I am given my [Dm]dues
And in[Dm]justice deliciously [E]squared
Be pre[Am]pared!

[Interlude 2]
[Am](Dialog)[Dm][G][Am]
[Am][Dm][G][Am]
[Cdim7][Am][Cdim7][Am]
[G][C][Dm][E]

[Verse 3]
It's [Am]great that we'll soon be con[Dm]nected
With a [Em]king who'll be all-time [Am]adored
Of course, quid pro quo, you're ex[Dm]pected
To [Em]take certain duties on [Am]board
The [Cdim7]future is littered with pr[Am]izes
And [Cdim7]though I'm the main addressee[Am]
The [G]point that I must empha[C]size is
You [Dm]won't get a sniff without [E]me!

[Chorus 2]
So pre[Am]pares for the coup of the [Dm]century
Be pre[G]pares for the murkiest [C]scam
Me[Em]ticulous [Am]planning
Te[Dm]nacity [G]spanning
De[Em]cades of [Am]denial
Is [Dm]simply [G]why I'll
Be [C]king undisputed
Respected, saluted
And [A]seen for the wonder I [Dm]am
Yes, my [Dm]teeth and ambitions are [E]bared
Be pre[Am]pared!
Yes, our [Dm]teeth and and are [E]bared
Be pre[Am]pared![F][E][Am]
