[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
hy, 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
Be 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 candlesticks
[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 out guest
[Lumiere:] 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 servat 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!
[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 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?
[Chorus:] She`s 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 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
