DWTS Debuts Catchy Samba Version of 'I Just Can't Wait to Be King'

Week five of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars is Disney week, featuring lots of dance numbers set to Disney tunes you’re probably better off remembering as they were seen in the cartoon versions from your childhood.

Cody Simpson and Witney Carson took on The Lion King for a version of “Simba’s Samba,” which all of us clearly need to take hundreds of hours of dance lessons to learn to do immediately. Via USA Today:

Cody and Witney danced a cute samba to Lion King’s I Just Can’t Wait to be King. He was playing the role of Simba, the lion cub from the film, which Witney said was a good fit. “They’re both young, energetic, a little wild and have great hair!” Len said Cody “really sold” it. Donny [Osmond] said he didn’t think it looked like Cody liked the dance. “I didn’t see any happiness and joy.” But added, “The dancing was phenomenal.” He got booed. Bruno said Cody had “incredible energy and timing.” Carrie Ann said, “Tonight I felt the power of Cody.” Scores: 9, 8, 8, 9 = 34

This is where you slam your fist on the desk and curse us for getting this song stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
