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

Why, we only live to serve

Try the grey stuff

Oh, 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

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

If you're stressed

It's fine dining we suggest

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 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!

Be our guest!

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

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!
