[TIMON, spoken]

I know that your powers of potential
Are as wet as a warthog's backside
But thick as you are: Pay attention!
My words are a matter of pride
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!
So prepare for the chance of a lifetime
Be prepared for sensational news
A shining new era is tip-toeing nearer
And where do we feature?
Just listen to teacher!
I know it sounds sordid
But you'll be rewarded
When at last I am given my dues
And in justice deliciously squared
Be prepared!
