To "The Circle of Life" (the Lion King). The idea is that it's a prologue to the entire revue Original Lyrics: [MS:] Nants ingonyama bagithi baba [There comes a lion] [BS:] Sithi uhhmm ingonyama [Oh yes, it's a lion] [MS:] Nants ingonyama bagithi baba [There comes a lion] [BS:] Sithi uhhmm ingonyama [Oh yes, it's a lion] Ingonyama [MS:] Siyo Nqoba [We're going to conquer] [BS:] Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw' enamabaal [It's a lion and a tiger] [repeats 8] From the day we arrive on the planet And, blinking, step into the sun There's more to see than can ever be seen More to do than can ever be done There's far too much to take in here More to find than can ever be found But the sun rolling high Through the sapphire sky Keeps great and small on the endless round It's the Circle of Life And it moves us all Through despair and hope Through faith and love Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the Circle The Circle of Life It's The Circle of Life And it moves us all Through despair and hope Through faith and love Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the Circle The Circle of Life | Altered Lyrics: (this part is sung to sound as much like the original as possible) [this stuff goes on the screen] [MS:] Ma, a memoir! Bag of teeth in a jar [10,000 BC] [BS:] See the mooooon in a jar [MS:] Ma, a memoir! Bang a bar into the moon [When things weren't all that different from today] [BS:] See the mooooon in a jar [Antarctica was cold] (helluva) in a jar[Canberra was a hold] [MS:] See the mooooon [BS:] in a jar [And you couldn't get from, say Africa, to, say, Australia] Pinata, Penguin in Havana Pinata, Penguin in Havana [Unless of course, there was some sort of magic] Pinata, Penguin in Havana Pinata, Penguin in Havana [But as rational scientists, that's just absurd] Pinata, Penguin in Havana Pinata, Penguin in Havana [28th September, 8:03am] Pinata, Penguin in Havana Pinata, Penguin in Havana [Sydney Autralia] Pinata, Penguin in Havana [(The African Quarter)] From the day we stood up on two legs And, blinking, looked over the grass We've wanted to go so much farther from home Than two legs could ever bring us There's far too much ground to cover And the deserts are all very large But we've finally found Something simple and round To make us carts, wagons, even cars. It's a circle!... It will move us all From Point A to B From Point B to C Till we find a place That will give directions It's a circle A circle of rock. It's a Circle of Rock It will move us all From a current state || To points D and E, To a future bright || F,G,H and I Where every place || Till we find a place Can be reached by morning || To explain these letters (or "with a map and key" or something like that...) It's a circle A circle of rock |
