A/N

So, two points - first, this is indeed based on the song Be Our Guest from Beauty and the Beast, and is meant to be sung rather than read, in a sense. Second point is that yes, the idea for this came from the reference to said song in the 2019 Lion King film. Like I've said elsewhere, mostly a letdown, but there's a few nuggets in it, and that moment was one of them.

So, without further adieu...

Be My Guests

Be my guests,

Be my guests,

Let's put your hunting to the test.

I want you always in the field,

Make sure our prey will never rest.

...

You will bark,

You will fight,

You'll hunt both by day and night.

At Pride Rock we'll hold our banquets,

We'll devour meat delights.

...

The lions will abide you,

They'll hunt right alongside you,

As our guests,

As my guests,

Mean, as our guests!

...

Still want more?

Need more meat?

I hear that zebra flesh is sweet.

Antelope is rather stringy,

But rhino is magnifique.

...

Know some prey,

Will fight back.

But don't back down or cease attack.

We predators will take our dues,

For food we'll never lack.

...

Yes a new age dawning's,

But don't forget this warning,

I'm the king,

The one true king,

You're my guests!

...

What's that you say?

Prey's gone away?

Bah, just hunt harder night and day.

We must keep the supply flowing,

There's now no time to play.

...

Simple dogs,

Worthless hogs,

Don't forget your king, your liege,

You are all here to serve me,

Only by my will you breathe!

...

This still works, system's sublime.

Designed by lion mind.

Only when food's found shall you dogs find your rest!

...

So time to stop this singing,

You go back to killing,

As our guests,

As my guests,

Mean, ah yes as my guests,

As hyenas you all

Are! My! Guests!
