Well the only thing about I just can't wait to be king, is that Simba did not resize that when Mufasa told him, "One day the sun will set on my time here, and will rise with you as the new king." that his Father meant that he would one day die. As evidenced by Simba saying to Mufasa later "We'll always be together." I doubt Simba would have been so eager to be King, if he knew that his father would no longer be with him when that happened.
How hard this realization hit Simba is illustrated in Lion King 2 when he flat out tells Kiara " One day I won't be here and I need you to carry on in my place."
So I don't think it is a fair comparison to say I just can't Wait to be King is similar To Be Prepared. Because Simba was not realizing the whole situation of what he was singing about . Where as Scar knew exactly what needed to happen for him to get what he wanted.
If you told Simba was like Scar in any way. First he would get angry, then he would start second guessing himself, then he would go back to ruling with a mindset of What would my Father do? Rather than What should I do? How far this would go before Nala decided to help him get his head on straight, I have no idea.
