[Chorus]
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
Let's him do anything
You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king!

[Verse 1]
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!

[Chorus]
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
Let's him do anything
You know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king!

[Verse 2]
Maybe it's his 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!

[Chorus]
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
Let's him do anything
'Cause you know you're in the presence of greatness
When you're running with the king!
