Be Prepared" is a song from the 1994 Disney animated film The Lion King.

On the original soundtrack recording, Scar opens the song with a soliloquy:
“I never thought hyenas essential. They're crude and unspeakably plain.

我从不考虑土狼的重要性 他们是那样粗鲁和说不出的简单 但也许会有潜力的闪烁 前提是有我的赏识

But maybe they've a glimmer of potential if allied to my vision and brain.

I know that your powers of retention are as wet as a warthog's backside

我清楚你们的记忆力像野猪屁股一样没用/像潮湿了的犹猪背后。

But thick as you are, pay attention   My words are a matter of pride  我

的话是成功关键[是一种荣誉]   

It's clear from your ...v-a-cant ex-pressions.呆滞的表情

The lights are not all on upstairs   光芒不都来自上方 
But we're talking kings and successions. Even you can't be caught unawares

 但我们在谈国王和王位继承。 即使你们也不会在不知不绝中捉住，/措手不及；来不及应付

So prepare for a chance of a lifetime  Be prepared for sensational news

所以准备一下千载难逢的机会这；准备好这惊人的新闻

A shining new era Is tiptoeing nearer  一个新的时代它正悄悄到来
And where do we feature? Just listen to teacher 
I know it sounds sordid  But you'll be rewarded 

我知道听起来卑鄙[可耻肮脏 ，但你们会得到回报

When at last I am given my dues! 应付款 在我最终得到应得的权益

And injustice deliciously squared 正义得到伸张之时 **

Be prepared!  Be prepared for what? For the death of the king 

Is he sick? No, fool! We're going to kill him. 

... and Simba too!Great idea! Who needs a king?

No king, No king, nah nah nah nah nah nah!

Idiots! There will BE a king!

But you just said...I will be king. Stick with me, and you'll never go hungry again!

Yay, all right! Long live the king! Long live the king! 

It's great that we'll soon be connected

With a king who'll be all-time adored 
Scar:
Of course, quid pro quo/补偿报酬],you're expected to take certain duties on board 代价是履行一些职责

The future is littered with prizes 未来充满了奖赏。/ 放[堆]满了
And though I'm the main addressee 虽然我是主要的获利者,/承担者，收件人/
The point that I must emphasize is 

You won't get a sniff 嗅 without me  没有我你们什么也得不到。为世纪行动做好准备！
So prepare for the coup of the century 为世纪的改变做好准备。（刀疤）
Be prepared for the murkiest scam 为最阴暗的诡计做好准备/隐秘的骗局/ 
[Oooooo, la-la-la!] meticulous planning 縝密的計畫 

 [Tenacity，坚持；不屈不挠。span 缚住或扎牢] 

Meticulous planning 精心计划     We'll have food!
Tenacity spanning 堅決的執行       Lots of food
Decades of denial 数十年的忍耐 We repeat
Is simply why I'll       Endless meat
 Be king undisputed Respected, saluted  是我成为国王的原因，毫无争议,受人尊敬，赞扬

And seen for the wonder I am   被视为奇迹
Yes my teeth and ambitions are bared 是的,我的利齿和雄心一起暴露

 Be prepared!
Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared  Be prepared!
