You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king
Animals bow down before him
Birds flutter and sing
Everyone all over the Pride Lands
Lets you do anything
You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king

Things'll be so great
Hanging with lion number one
We'll live like we're kings
The big old tree of fun
Get our food for free
No need to hunt or run
The only thing to do is lie under the sun

You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king
Animals bow down before him
Birds flutter and sing
Everyone all over the Pride Lands
Lets you do anything
You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king

Maybe it's the smile or his fabulous shiny mane
Or the way he walks that helps his claim to fame
In the end it don't matter, it's really all the same
'Cause if the king makes mistakes he never takes the blame

You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king
Animals bow down before him
Birds flutter and sing
Everyone all over the Pride Lands
Lets you do anything
'Cause you know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king
