Lumiere
Ma chère mademoiselle, it is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that we welcome you here 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, chérie, and we'll 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!

Chorus
Beef ragout, cheese soufflé, pie and pudding en flambé!

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!

Flatware
We tell jokes!

Lumiere
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 our guest!

Lumiere
If you're stressed, it's fine dining we suggest!

Chorus
Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest!

Be our guest! Be our guest! Get your worries off your chest!
Let us say, for your entree, we've an array; may we suggest:
Try the bread! Try the soup! When the croutons loop de loop,
It's a treat for any diner! Don't believe me? Ask the china!

Singing pork! Dancing veal! What an entertaining meal!
How could anyone be gloomy or depressed?
We'll make you shout "encore!" and send us out for more!
So, be our guest!

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-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!

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!

Cogsworth
Lumiere, think of what the master will do if he finds out about this!

Napkins
Allo! Hi!

Lumiere
And now, for your continued dining experience: Napkins, s'il vous plaît!

Napkin
Ooh, la, la!

Napkins and Belle
Un! Deux! Trois! Quatre! Cinq! Six! Sept! Huit!

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...

Cogsworth
No, no! Not the kick line! Aaaah!

All
...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!
