English[edit]

It's great to be a king! I seem to have a knack
For taking everything I want and giving nothing back
I'll take away your jellies; I'll take away your jams
Have a nice vacation when I take your travel plans!

Now that I have the power, this is my finest hour
Nothing on this Earth can stop me now!

Everything is mine! I finally have control!
Uh, excuse me, I hope I don't sound too droll
I'll take your color TVs, and a banana, if you please
And I'll put an end to this silly world peace!

Fools! While I watch you cower, this is my finest hour
Bait you on my hook, just like a worm!
Before I crush you like a bug, come over here and give me a hug
It gives me so much joy to watch you squirm!

French lyrics Translation

C'est chouette d'être le roi
Ça me donne tous les droits
Je prends partout ce que je veux et je le garde pour moi
Je vole les jouets des enfants
Je mange leurs bonbons
Je sais qu'on me trouve méchant
Mais je m'en fiche, c'est tellement bon !

Maintenant que j'ai le pouvoir
Je vais entrer dans l'histoire
Pour les singes, c'est le désespoir !

La Noix est à moi
L'île est entre mes mains
Excusez-moi, mais je trouve ça franchement bien
C'est moi qui fais la loi
Et vous n'y pouvez rien
Croyez-moi, très sincèrement, je vous plains !

Quand je vous regarde trembler
Je me sens revigoré
Vous êtes comme des vers sur mon hameçon
Avant que je ne vous écrase
Comme des serpents dans la vase
Chantez donc ma gloire à l'unisson !

It's great to be the king
It gives me every right
I take whatever I want from anywhere and keep it for myself
I steal children's toys
I eat their candy
I know people think I'm mean
But I don't care, it's so good!

Now that I have the power
I will go down in history
For apes, it's despair!

The (Coco)nut is mine
The island is in my hands
Excuse me, but I think that's really great
I'm the one who makes the rules
And you can't do anything about it
Believe me, I sincerely feel sorry for you!

When I watch you tremble
I feel invigorated
You're like worms on my hook
Before I squash you
Like snakes in the mud
Just sing to my glory in unison!
