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

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!

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!
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!
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!

Gaston
Lefou Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Gaston Looking so down in the dumps Ev'ry guy here'd love to be you, Gaston Even when taking your lumps There's no man in town as admired as you You're everyone's favorite guy Everyone's awed and inspired by you And it's not very hard to see why No one's slick as Gaston No one's quick as Gaston No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston's For there's no man in town half as manly Perfect, a pure paragon! You can ask any Tom, Dick or Stanley And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on Lefou and Chorus No one's been like Gaston A king pin like Gaston LeFou No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston Gaston As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating! Lefou and Chorus My what a guy, that Gaston! Give five "hurrah's!" Give twelve "hip-hips!" LeFou Gaston is the best And the rest is all drips Chorus No one fights like Gaston Douses lights like Gaston LeFou In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston! Bimbettes For there's no one as burly and brawny Gaston As you see I've got biceps to spare LeFou Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny Gaston That's right! And ev'ry last inch of me's covered with hair Chorus No one hits like Gaston Matches wits like Gaston LeFou In a spitting match nobody spits like Gaston Gaston: I'm especially good at expectorating! Ptoooie! Chorus Ten points for Gaston! Gaston When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs Ev'ry morning to help me get large And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs So I'm roughly the size of a barge! Chorus Oh, ahhh, wow! My what a guy, that Gaston! No one shoots like Gaston Makes those beauts like Gaston LeFou Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Gaston Gaston I use antlers in all of my decorating! Chorus My what a guy, Gaston!

Gaston Reprise
LeFou, I'm afraid I've been thinking Lefou A dangerous pastime Gaston I know. But that wacky old coot is Belle's father And his sanity's only "so-so" Now the wheels in my head have been turning Since I looked at that loony, old man See, I've promised myself I'd be married to Belle And right now I'm evolving a plan Gaston If I . . . LeFou Yes? Gaston Then we . . . LeFou No! Would she . . . Gaston Guess! LeFou Now I get it! Gaston and LeFou Let's go! No one plots like Gaston Gaston Takes cheap shots like Gaston LeFou Plans to persecute harmless crackpots like Gaston Gaston Yes, I'm endlessly, wildly resourceful LeFou As down to the depths you descend Gaston I won't even be mildly remorseful Gaston and LeFou Just as long as I (you) get what I (you) want in the end Gaston Who has brains like Gaston? LeFou Entertains like Gaston? Gaston and LeFou Who can make up these endless refrains like Gaston? And his marriage we soon will be celebrating My what a guy Gaston!

Belle
Belle Little town, it's a quiet village Every day like the one before Little town full of little people Waking up to say...
Townsfolk Bonjour Bonjour Bonjour Bonjour Bonjour
Belle There goes the baker with his tray, like always The same old bread and rolls to sell Every morning just the same Since the morning that we came To this poor provincial town
Townsfolk Look, there she goes The girl is strange, no question Dazed and distracted, can't you tell? Never part of any crowd Cause her head's up on some cloud No denying she's a funny girl, that Belle
Belle There must be more than this provincial life!
Townsfolk Look, there she goes, that girl is so peculiar I wonder if she's feeling well With a dreamy, far-off look And her nose stuck in a book What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle
Belle: oh... Isn't this amazing? It's my favorite part because you'll see Here's where she meets Prince Charming But she won't discover that it's him till chapter three
Woman Now it's no wonder that her name means "beauty" Her looks have got no parallel
Shopkeeper But behind that fair facade I'm afraid she's rather odd Very different from the rest of us
Townsfolk She's nothing like the rest of us Yes, different from the rest of us is Belle
Gaston Right from the moment when I met her, saw her I said she's gorgeous and I fell Here in town it's only she Who's as beautiful as me So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle
Bimbettes Look there he goes! isn't he dreamy? Monsieur Gaston! oh,he's so cute! Be still my heart! I'm hardly breathing! He's such a tall, dark, strong, and handsome brute!
Belle There must be more than this provincial life!
Gaston: just watch....I'm going to make Belle my wife!
Townsfolk Look there she goes....a girl who's strange but special A most peculiar mademoiselle It's a pity and a sin She doesn't quite fit in Because she really is a funny girl A beauty, but a funny girl She really is a funny girl... That Belle!!

Belle Reprise
Madame Gaston, Can't you just see it? Madame Gaston, His little wife. No, sir, not me I guarantee it. I want much more then this provincial life.
I want adventure in the great wide somewhere I want it more then I can tell and for once it might be grand To have someone understand I want so much more then they've got planned

Tale as Old as Time Tale as old as time True as it can be Barely even friends Then somebody bends Unexpectedly
Just a little change Small to say the least Both a little scared Neither one prepared
Beauty and the beast
Ever just the same Ever a surprise Ever as before
Ever just as sure As the sun will rise Tale as old as time Tune as old as song
Bitter sweet and strange Finding you can change Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun Rising in the east Tale as old as time Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
Tale as old as time Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast

The Mob Song Gaston Through the mist, through the woods Through the darkness and the shadows It's a nightmare but it's one exciting ride Say a prayer, then we're there At the drawbridge of a castle And there's something truly terrible inside It's a beast! He's got fangs Razor sharp ones! Massive paws, killer claws for the feast Hear him roar! See him foam! But we're not coming home 'til he's dead-- Good and dead! Kill the Beast!
Belle I won't let you do this!
Gaston Try and stop us!
Belle Papa, this is all my fault. I have to go back and warn him.
Maurice I'm coming with you
Belle No!
Maurice I lost you once, I won't lose you again!
Belle Then we'd better hurry.
Gaston We'll rid the village of this Beast. Who's with me?
I am! I am! I am!
Mob Light your torch! Mount your horse!
Gaston Screw your courage to the sticking place!
Mob We're counting on Gaston to lead the way!
Women Through a mist, through a wood Where within a haunted castle Something's lurking that you don't see ev'ry day!
Mob It's a beast! One as tall as a mountain We won't rest 'til he's good and deceased Sally forth! Tally ho! Grab your sword! Grab your bow! Praise the Lord and here we go! We don't like What we don't understand In fact it scares us And this monster is mysterious at least Bring your guns! Bring your knives! Save your children and your wives We'll save our village and our lives We'll kill the Beast!
Gaston Cut down a tree, and make it a big one! Take whatever booty you can find. But remember, the Beast is MINE!
Enchanted Objects Hearts ablaze Banners high We go marching into battle Unafraid although the danger just increased
Mob Raise the flag! Sing the song! Here we come, we're fifty strong And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong Let's kill the Beast! Kill the Beast! Kill the Beast Kill the Beast!

Something There
Belle There's something sweet And almost kind But he was mean and he was coarse and unrefined But now he's dear, and so unsure I wonder why I didn't see it there before
Beast She glanced this way I thought I saw And when we touched she didn't shudder at my paw No it can't be, I'll just ignore But then she's never looked at me that way before
Belle New and a bit alarming Who'd have ever thought that this could be? True that he's no Prince Charming But there's something in him that I simply didn't see
Lumiere Well, who'd have thought?
Mrs Potts Well, bless my soul
Cogsworth Well, who'd have known?
Mrs Potts Well, who indeed?
Lumiere And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?
Mrs Potts It's so peculiar. Wait and see
Lumiere and Cogsworth We'll wait and see
Together A few days more There may be something there that wasn't there before
Cogsworth Perhaps there's something there That wasn't there before
Chip What?
Mrs Potts There may be something there that wasn't there before
Chip What's there, Mama?
Mrs Potts Ssh. I'll tell you when you're older.

All the songs are awesome! I like singing Gaston, but just for fun replacing it with the name of some other villain. Makes it 10 times funnier!
