Be Our Guest |
| 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’ll provide the rest |
| Soup du jour |
| Hot hors d’oeuvres |
| Why, we only live to serve |
| Try the grey stuff |
| Chip: |
| It’s delicious |
| Lumiere: |
| 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 |
| Be our guest! |
| Lumiere and Chorus: |
| Beef ragout |
| Cheese souffle |
| Pie and pudding «en flambe» |
| Lumiere: |
| 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 candlesticks |
| Chorus: |
| And it’s all in perfect taste |
| That you can bet |
| Come on and lift your glass |
| You’ve won your own free pass |
| To be out guest |
| Lumiere: |
| If you’re stressed |
| It’s fine dining we suggest |
| Chorus: |
| 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 wait upon |
| 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! |
| Get your worries off your chest |
| Let us say for your entree |
| We’ve an array; |
| may we suggest: |
| Try the bread! |
| Try the soup! |
| When the croutons loop de loop |
| It’s a treat for any dinner |
| Don’t belive me? |
| Ask the china |
| Singing pork! |
| Dancing veal! |
| What an entertaining meal! |
| How could anyone be gloomy and depressed? |
| We’ll make you shout «encore!» |
| And send us out for more |
| So, be our guest! |
| Lumiere: |
| Be our guest! |
| Chorus: |
| Be our guest! |
| Mrs Potts: |
| It’s a guest! |
| It’s a guest! |
| Sakes alive, well I’ll be blessed! |
| Wine’s been poured and thank 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 soft-shoein' |
| 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 |
| Chorus: |
| We’ve got a lot to do! |
| Mrs Potts: |
| Is it one lump or two? |
| For you, our guest! |
| Chorus: |
| She’s our guest! |
| Mrs Potts: |
| She’s our guest! |
| Chorus: |
| She’s our guest! |
| Be our guest! |
| Be our guest! |
| Be our guest! |
| Chorus: |
| Be our guest! |
| Be our guest! |
| Our command is your request |
| It’s been years since we’ve had anybody here |
| And we’re obsessed |
| With your meal, with your ease |
| Yes, indeed, we aim to please |
| While the candlelight’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! |
