Lumiere: Jerry Orbach
Mrs. Potts: Angela Lansbury

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 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.

BEERSTEINS
Und it's all in perfect taste that you can bet.

LUMIERE AND CHORUS
Come on and lift your glass.
You've won your own free pass,
to be our 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 skill.
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-shoein'
I'll be bubblin'! I'll be brewin'!
I'll get warm, piping hot.
Heavens sake, 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? CHORUS
For you, our guest. She's our guest!
She's our guest! Be our guest!

CHORUS
Be our guest! Be our guest!
Our command is your request.
It's ten 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!

LUMIERE AND CHORUS
Course by course, one by one!
'Till 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
