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 SHENZI There&`&s no food, no water- BANZAI Yeah. It&`&s dinnertime, and there ain&`&t no stinkin&`& entrées! SCAR You and your petty complaints. You don&`&t know what real hunger is. Day after day in 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, presistant, 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!
