Be Our Guest Lyrics

Be Our Guest lyrics

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 gray 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

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 it so unnerving

For a servent whos not seving

he's not whole without a soul to wait upon

ahh those good ol' days when we were usefull

suddenly those good ol' days are gone

10 years we've been rusting

Needing so much more than dusting

Needing excercising a chance to use our skeem

Most days we just lay around the castle

Can't be fat and lazy you walked in and oopsiedaisy



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!



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!
