Be Our Guest

Ma chere 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, cherie
 And we'll provide the rest
 Soup du jour
 Hot hors d'oeuvres
 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
 Lumiere and 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
 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
 If you're stressed
 It's fine dining we suggest
 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 dinner
 Don't believe me? Ask the china
 Singing pork, dancing veal
 What an entertaining meal
 How could anyone be gloomy and depressed?
 We'll make you shout "encore!"
 And send us out for more
 So, be our guest

 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
 We've got a lot to do
 Is it one lump or two?
 For you, our guest
 She's our guest
 She's our guest
 She's our guest
 Be our guest, be our guest, be our guest!
 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

 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

 Please, be our guest
