Lyrics

[Intro]
Who does she think she is?
That girl has tangled with the wrong man
No one says, "No" to Gaston
Huh, darn right
Dismissed, rejected
Publicly humiliated
Why, it's more than I can bear
More beer?
What for?
Nothing helps, I'm disgraced
Who, you?
Never
Gaston, you've got to pull yourself together
[Verse 1]
Gosh, it disturbs me to see you, Gaston
Looking so down in the dumps
Every guy here'd love to be you, Gaston
Even when taking your lumps
There's no man in town as admired as you
You're everyone's favorite guy
Everyone's awed and inspired by you
And it's not very hard to see why
[Chorus]
No one's slick as Gaston, no one's quick as Gaston
No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston
For there's no man in town half as manly
Perfect, a pure paragon
You can ask any Tom, Dick, or Stanley
And they'll tell you whose team they'd prefer to be on
[Chorus]
No one's been like Gaston, a kingpin like Gaston
No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston
As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating
My, what a guy, that Gaston
[Bridge]
Give five hurrahs, give twelve hip-hips
Gaston is the best and the rest is all drips
[Chorus]
No one fights like Gaston, douses lights like Gaston
In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston
For there's no one as burly and brawny
As you see, I've got biceps to spare
Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny
That's right, and every last inch of me's covered with hair
[Chorus]
No one hits like Gaston, matches wits like Gaston
In a spitting match, nobody spits like Gaston
I'm especially good at expectorating
Ptooey!
Ten points for Gaston
[Bridge]
When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs
Every morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown, I eat five dozen eggs
So I'm roughly the size of a barge
[Chorus]
No one shoots like Gaston, makes those beauts like Gaston
Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Gaston
I use antlers in all of my decorating
Say it again
Who's a man among men?
And let's say it once more
Who's that hero next door?
Who's that super success, don't you know, can't you guess?
Ask his friends and his five hangers-on
There's just one guy in town who's got all of it down
[Outro]
And his name's G-A-S
T-G-A-S-T-E
G-A-S-T-O, oh
Gaston
