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



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



Lumiere and 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!



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
