Lumiere: |
Ma chere Mademoiselle, it is with deepest
pride and greatest pleasure that we welcome
you tonight. And now, we invite you to relax.
Let us pull up a chair as the dining room
proudly presents your dinner!
Be our guest! Be our guest! Put our service to
the test. Tie your napkin 'round your neck,
cherie and we provide the rest. Soup du jour!
Hot hors d'oeuvres! Why, we only live to serve.
Try the grey stuff, it's delicious! Don't believe
me? Ask the dishes! They can sing! They can
dance! After all, Miss, this is France! And a
dinner here is never second best. Go on, unfold
your menu, take a glance, and then you'll be
our guest, oui, our guest! Beef ragout! Cheese
souffle! Pie and pudding "en flambe!" We'll
prepare and serve with flair a culinary cabaret!
You're alone and you're scared but the
banquet's all prepared. No one's gloomy or
complaining while the flatware's entertaining. We
tell jokes. I do tricks with my fellow candle
sticks. |
Mugs: |
And it's all in perfect taste. That you can bet! |
All: |
Come on and lift your glass, you've won your own
free pass to be our guest!
If you're stressed, it's fine dining we suggest. |
All: |
Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest! |
Lumiere: |
Life is so unnerving for a servant who's not
serving. He's not whole without a soul to wail
up on.
Ah, those good old days when we were useful.
Suddenly, those good old days are gone.Ten
years, we've been rusting, needing so much
more than dusting.
Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills.
Most days, we just lay around the castle.
Flabby, fat and lazy. You walked in, and oops a
daisy! |
Mrs.Potts: |
It's a guest! It's a guest! Sakes alive,
well, I'll be blessed! Wine's been poured and
thanks the Lord I've had the napkins freshly
pressed. With dessert she'll want tea. And my
dear, that's fine with me. While the cups do
their shoeing, I'll be bubbling! I'll be
brewing! I'll get warm, piping hot!
Heaven's sakes! Is that a spot? Clean it up! We
want the company impressed! We've got a lot
to do. Is it one lump or two for you, our guest. |
Mrs.Potts: |
She's our guest! |
Chorus: |
She's our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest! Our
command is your request.
It's ten years since we had anybody here, and
we're obsessed. With your meal, with your ease,
yes, indeed, we aim to please. While the candle
light's still glowing let us help you, we'll keep
going course by course, one by one!
'Til you shout, "Enough. I'm done!"
Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest.
Tonight you'll prop your feet up! But for now,
let's eat up! Be our guest! Be our guest!
Be our guest! Please, be our guest! |
