    Welcome to the January KHV Chorus! This month we will be singing Be Prepared from the Lion King.
    For those of you who are unfamiliar how KHVC works, all you need to do is select one of the numbers listed below, and sing all lines with that number. When you are done recording a version without the instrumental background you can send it to me, and I will do the rest. I request that you sing to the instrumental instead of the original, as sometimes instrumentals timing is a bit off. You will have until January 14th to claim your lines and until January 21st to get them in! Happy singing!

    [I never thought hyenas essential
    They're crude and unspeakably plain
    But maybe they've a glimmer of potential
    If allied to my vision and brain]- 1

    [I know that your powers of retention
    Are as wet as a warthog's backside
    But thick as you are, pay attention
    My words are a matter of pride] -2
    [It's clear from your vacant expressions
    The lights are not all on upstairs
    But we're talking kings and successions
    Even you can't be caught unawares]-3

    [So prepare for a chance of a lifetime
    Be prepared for sensational news
    A shining new era
    Is tiptoeing nearer]-4
    [And where do we feature?] -5
    [Just listen to teacher
    I know it sounds sordid
    But you'll be rewarded
    When at last I am given my dues]-6
    [And injustice deliciously squared
    Be prepared!]- everyone

    [Yeah, be prepared! We'll be prepared! ...for what?]-5
    [For the death of the king!]-1
    [Why? Is he sick?]-5
    [No, fool, we're going to kill him. And Simba too!] -2
    [Great idea! Who needs a king!]- 5
    [No king, no king, la la la la la la!] - 5,6
    [Idiots! There will be a king!]- 3
    [Hey, but you said...
    ]- 4
    [I will be king! Stick with me, and you'll never go hungry again!]-5
    [Long live the king!]-5,6


    [It's great that we'll soon be connected
    With a king who'll be all-time adored]-5
    [Of course, quid pro quo, you're expected
    To take certain duties on board]-1
    [The future is littered with prizes
    And though I'm the main addressee
    The point that I must emphasize is
    You won't get a sniff without me!] -2

    [So prepare for the coup of the century
    Be prepared for the murkiest scam
    Meticulous planning
    Tenacity spanning]-3
    [Decades of denial
    Is simply why I'll
    Be king undisputed
    Respected, saluted]-4
    [And seen for the wonder I am
    Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared
    Be prepared!]-6
    [Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared
    Be prepared!]-everyone

    Note to everyone - you gotta laugh at the end like a hyena. I can't be the only one who does that.
