The Madness of King Scar


Performed by John Vickery, Tracy Nicole Chapman, Stanley Wayne Mathis,
Geoff Hoyle, and Heather Headley

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' entres!

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?

Zuzu:
Oh, pull yourself together, Sire!

Scar:
Oh, very well Zazu? Zazu, Zazu, Zazu?

Zuzu:
Yes, Sire?

Scar:
Nobody loved me, there's the rub, not even as a cu
What did my brother have that I don't have?

Zuzu:
Do you want the short list or the long?

Scar:
Whatever!

Zuzu:
Well, he had adoring subjects a loving family a devoted queen

Scar:
That's it! I need a queen!

Zuzu:
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

Nala:
What are you talking about?

Scar:
Tell me I'm adored

Nala:
Get away from me

Scar:
Tell me I'm adored
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
