Elton John - Madness Of King Scar Lyrics

[SCAR, spoken]
Zazu, why am I not loved?

(sung)
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

[HYENAS, spoken]
Hey, boss!

[SCAR]
When my name is whispered through the pride
Is this talk of love or regicide?

[SHENZI, spoken]
Reggie who?

[SCAR]
Tell me I'm adored
Please tell me I'm adored

[HYENAS, spoken]
Hey, boss!
[SCAR, spoken]
Oh, what is it?

[BANZAI, spoken]
We got a bone to pick with you

[SHENZI, spoken]
There's no food, no water

[BANZAI, spoken]
Yeah. It's dinnertime, and there ain't no stinkin' entrees!

[SCAR, spoken]
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, spoken]
I had that once. It was worms

[SCAR, spoken]
No, no, no... it's like an itch... deep, persistent, profound

[BANZAI, spoken]
That's it - worms! When they get really bad all you gotta do is hunker down and scoot -

[SCAR, spoken]
Thanks for the tip. Ingrates! If it weren't for me you'd be beating off buzzards for your next bite!
[HYENAS]
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, spoken]
Are you blaming me?

[HYENAS, spoken]
Oh no, it's the lionesses

(sung)
You are so adored
Oh, you are so adored

[SCAR, spoken]
That's more like it!

[HYENAS]
But what I'd give for one more hit
Of wildebeest kielbasa
Or maybe hornbill on a spit
[ZAZU, spoken]
Oh, how I miss Mufasa!

[SCAR, spoken]
Mufasa?! Mufasa?! How dare you! I told you never to mention that name!

[ZAZU, spoken]
Note taken. I shall never mention "M-m-m" again!

[SCAR, spoken]
Even in death, his shadow looms over me. There he is! No! There he is! And there!

[ZAZU, spoken]
Calm yourself, sire, or you'll get another one of your splitting headaches!

[SCAR, spoken]
I am perfectly fine!

(sung)
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?
Ah ha ha ha!

[ZAZU, spoken]
Oh, pull yourself together, sire!

[SCAR, spoken]
Oh, very well. Zazu? Zazu, Zazu, Zazu?

[ZAZU, spoken]
Yes, sire?

[SCAR, spoken]
Nobody loved me, there's the rub. Not even as a cub! What did my brother have that I don't have?

[ZAZU, spoken]
Do you want the short list or the long?

[SCAR, spoken]
Whatever!

[ZAZU, spoken]
Well, he had adoring subjects

[SCAR, spoken]
No

[ZAZU, spoken]
A loving family

[SCAR, spoken]
No

[ZAZU, spoken]
A devoted queen

[SCAR, spoken]
That's it! I need a queen!

[ZAZU, spoken]
A what?

[SCAR, spoken]
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, spoken]
Scar...

[SCAR, spoken]
Ah, Nala... your timing couldn't have been more perfect. My, how you've grown...

[NALA, spoken]
Scar, you have got to do something. We're being forced to overhunt
[SCAR]
She's got those assets feminine[NALA, spoken]You're the king. Control the hyenasI have to make her mineYou're destroying the Pride LandsNobility in every geneIf we don't stop now... Don't you see?She has to be my queenThere's still a chance for things to be all right againCome, sweet Nala
It's written in the starsWhat are you doing? Are you listening to me?We'll create a host of little ScarsWhat are you talking about?Tell me I'm adoredGet away from me!Tell me I'm adored -
(NALA strikes SCAR.)

[SCAR]
Oh, Nala... you know how I loathe violence... One way or another, you will be mine

[NALA]
Never, Scar. Never!

[SCAR]
You belong to me
You all belong to me!
