His vocabulary and use of not-so-subtle burns on his hyena cohorts is totally impressive, particularly when he just really lays into poor Ed’s brain powers (or lack thereof). Speaking of being prepared, all of Scar’s signature tune, “Be Prepared” is one giant best Disney song lyric. It immediately sets the tone for the epic Circle of Life-ness of The Lion King. No one can pronounce it, no one can duplicate it, though we all try. The film-opening song lyric that shook the nation. This is a good one to keep on the bathroom mirror or something, get your good feelings all supercharged for the day. Ow, our hearts are collectively aching from all this beautiful positivity. You finally getting the message, John Smith? You with us? She just used “Earth” twice but in different ways to make a point about the difference between the Earth and dirt. We like this line because of the play on words. That’s just how good this song is in message, word choice, and sound. “Colors of the Wind” makes the list again… we know, we know. This lyric makes the list just because songwriters were somehow able to work the word “Baklava” into the song, and Baklava is delicious. Think for a second: there are things you don’t even know that you don’t know… minds blown. This line is not only beautiful and true, but she does this whole repetition thing that somehow drives the point home. Here are a few Disney lyrics choice selects that really butter our toast. Sometimes it’s because they turn into hope-giving life mottos. Sometimes it’s word choice, devices like alliteration or assonance that make the lyrics so great. Fact: Some Disney songs are a little more great because of some truly awesome lyrics.
