Montreal 1990:
"Alright class!" Tommy's teacher Ms. Simmons said, "don't forget to sign up for the school musical. If you do you'll get extra credit,"
The bell rang.
"Class dismissed. But Mr. Quincy please stay,"
The class of restless children scurried away.
"What is it Ms. Simmons?" Tommy asked his teacher.
"Well, Mr. Quincy, you are failing class for a number of reasons and I am concerned,"
Tommy's face went white. What would Mere Mere think of him failing? She always said "do well in school, do well in life"
"What can I do to change that ma'am?"
"Well Thomas, I'd suggest signing up for the play. If you do well, I'll pass you,"
"What's the play?"
"The Lion King"
(pretend the Lion King was out before 1994)
"Sure I'll do the lighting"
"No, no, no, no, not so fast Mr. Quincy. You have to be on stage in order to pass my class"
Tommy grumbled and left the room.
Auditions:
"Mr. Quincy, you're next!" Mr. Abney, the drama teacher shouted.
"Yes sir" Tommy said.
"What will you be singing for us?"
"Actually I will be singing and playing the piano. It is called 'When You Wish Upon A Star'"
Tommy started playing and singing. Mr. Abney watched in awe.
Tommy finished the song and there was applause all around. They were all amazed at that the 'bad boy' could sing and play piano.
"Would you mind if I asked you to sing another number?"
"Sure Mr. A. I'll sing 'I Just Can't Wait to Be King'"
I'm gonna be a mighty
king
So enemies beware!
Well, I've never seen
a king of beasts
With quite so little hair
I'm gonna be the mane
event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my ROAR
Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
You've rather a long
way to go,
young master, if you think...
No one saying do this
Now when I said that, I--
No one saying be there
What I meant was...
No one saying stop that
Look, what you don't realize...
No one saying see here
Now see here!
Free to run around all day
Well, that's definitely out...
Free to do it all my way!
I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart to heart
Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start
If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out!
Out of service, out of
Africa
I wouldn't hang about... aagh!
This child is getting wildly out of wing
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standing in the spotlight!
Not yet!
Let every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling
Oh I just can't wait to be king!
Oh I just can't wait to be king!
Oh I just can't waaaaaait ... to be king!
"Looks like we just found our Simba," Mr. Abney stated.
