Beauty and the Beast From "Beauty and the Beast" Music: Alan Menken Lyrics: Howard AshmanPerformed by: Angela Lansbury [Mrs Potts] Tale as old as time True as it can be Barely even friends Then somebody bends Unexpectedly Just a little change Small to say the least Both a little scared Neither one prepared Beauty and the Beast Ever just the same Ever a surprise Ever as before Ever just as sure As the sun will rise Tale as old as time Tune as old as song Bitter sweet and strange Finding you can change Learning you were wrong Certain as the sun Rising in the east Tale as old as time Song as old as rhyme Beauty and the Beast Tale as old as time Song as old as rhyme Beauty and the beast Belle From "Beauty and the Beast" Music: Alan MenkenLyrics: Howard Ashman Performed by: Paige O'Hara [Belle], Alec Murphy [Baker], Alvin Epstein [Bookseller], Jesse Corti [LeFou], Richard White [Gaston], Kath Souci [Bimbette], Mary Kay Bergman [Bimbette], et al.[Belle:] Little town It's a quiet village Ev'ry day Like the one before Little town Full of little people Waking up to say:( [Townsfolk:] Bonjour!Bonjour!Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour! ) [Belle:] There goes the baker with his tray, like always The same old bread and rolls to sell Ev'ry morning just the same Since the morning that we came To this poor provincial town ( [Baker:] Good Morning, Belle![Belle:] 'Morning, Monsieur. [Baker:] Where are you off to? [Belle:] The bookshop. I just finished the most wonderful story about a beanstalk and an ogre and a - [Baker:] That's nice. Marie! The baguettes! Hurry up!) [Townsfolk:] Look there she goes that girl is strange, no question Dazed and distracted, can't you tell? Never part of any crowd'Cause her head's up on some cloud No denying she's a funny girl that Belle [Man I:] Bonjour [Woman I:] Good day[Man I:] How is your fam'ly?

[Belle:] That's all right. I'll borrow . . . . . this one! [Bookseller:] That one? But you've read it twice! [Belle:] Well, it's my favorite! Far off places, daring swordfights, magic spells, a prince in disguise - [Bookseller:] If you like it all that much, it's yours! [Belle:] But sir! [Bookseller:] I insist.[Belle:] Well, thank you. Thank you very much! ) [Townsfolk:] Look there she goes that girl is so peculiar I wonder if she's feeling well With a dreamy far-off look And her nose stuck in a book What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle [Belle:] Oh, isn't this amazing? It's my fav'rite part because you'll see Here's where she meets Prince Charming But she won't discover that it's him 'til chapter three [Woman:] Now it's no wonder that her name means "beauty" Her looks have got no parallel[Shopkeeper:] But behind that fair facade I'm afraid she's rather odd Very diff'rent from the rest of us [Townsfolk:] She's nothing like the rest of us Yes, diff'rent from the rest of us is Belle( [LeFou:] Wow! You didn't miss a shot, Gaston! You're the greatest hunter in the whole world![Gaston:] I know. [LeFou:] No beast alive stands a chance against you. Ha ha ha! And no girl, for that matter.

[Matron:] You call this bacon? [Woman I:] What lovely grapes! [Man IV:] Some cheese [Woman II:] Ten yards [Man IV:] one pound [Gaston:] 'scuse me! [Cheese merchant:] I'll get the knife [Gaston:] Please let me through! [Woman I:] This bread - [Man V:] Those fish - [Woman I:] it's stale! [Man V:] they smell![Baker:] Madame's mistaken. [Belle:] There must be more than this provincial life! [Gaston:] Just watch, I'm going to make Belle my wife! [Townsfolk:] Look there she goes a girl who's strange but special A most peculiar mad'moiselle It's a pity and a sinShe doesn't quite fit in 'Cause she really is a funny girl A beauty but a funny girl She really is a funny girl That Belle Belle (Reprise)Music: Alan Menken Lyrics: Howard Ashman Performed by: Paige O'Hara [Belle] ( [Belle:] Is he gone?

Why, it's more than I can bear.[LeFou:] More beer? [Gaston:] What for? Nothing helps. I'm disgraced. [LeFou:] Who, you? Never! Gaston, you've got to pull yourself together. ) 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 ev'ryone's favorite guy Ev'ryone's awed and inspired by you And it's not very hard to see why 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 prefer to be on [Chorus:] No one's been like Gaston A king pin like Gaston [LeFou:] No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston [Gaston:] As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating [Chorus:] My what a guy, that Gaston Give five "hurrahs!"Give twelve "hip-hips!" [LeFou:] Gaston is the best And the rest is all drips [Chorus:] No one fights like Gaston Douses lights like Gaston [Cronie:] In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston [Bimbettes:] For there's no one as burly and brawny [Gaston:] As you see I've got biceps to spare [LeFou:] Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny [Gaston] (That's right!) And ev'ry last inch of me's covered with hair [Cronies:] No one hits like Gaston [Townsman:] Matches wits like Gaston [LeFou:] In a spitting match nobody spits like Gaston [Gaston:] I'm espcially good at expectorating(Ptooey!) [Chorus:] Ten points for Gaston! [Gaston:] When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs Ev'ry 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 [LeFou:] Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Gaston [Gaston:] I use antlers in all of my decorating [Chorus:] Say it again Who's a man among men? And then say it once more Who's the hero next door? Who's a super success? Don't you know? Can't you guess? Ask his fans and his five hangers-on There's just one guy in town who's got all of it down [LeFou:] And his name's G-A-S- T -G-A-S-T - E -G-A-S- T-O - oh!

Hmmm. ) LeFou, I'm afraid I've been thinking [Lefou:] A dangerous pastime [Gaston:] I know But that whacky old coot is Belle's father And his sanity's only "so-so" Now the wheels in my head have been turning Since I looked at that loony, old man See, I've promised myself I'd be married to Belle And right now I'm evolving a plan( If I . . . {whisper} [LeFou:] Yes? [Gaston:] Then we . . . {whisper} [LeFou:] No! Would she . . . [Gaston:] {whisper} Guess! [LeFou:] Now I get it! [Both:] Let's go! ) No one plots like Gaston [Gaston:] Takes cheap shots like Gaston [LeFou:] Plans to persecute harmless crackpots like Gaston [Chorus:] So his marriage we soon'll be celebrating My what a guy!

I won't let you do this! [Gaston:] If you're not with us, you're against us! Bring the old man! [Maurice:] Get your hands off me! [Gaston:] We can't have them running off to warn the creature. [Belle:] Let us out! [Gaston:] We'll rid the village of this Beast. Who's with me? [Mob:] I am! I am! I am! ) Light your torch Mount your horse [Gaston:] Screw your courage to the sticking place [Mob:] We're counting on Gaston to lead the way Through a mist Through a wood Where within a haunted castle Something's lurking that you don't see ev'ry day It's a beast One as tall as a mountain We won't rest'Til he's good and deceased Sally forth Tally ho Grab your sword Grab your bow Praise the Lord and here we go! ( [Gaston:] We'll lay siege to the castle and bring back his head! [Belle:] I have to warn the Beast! This is all my fault! Oh, Papa, what are we going to do? [Maurice:] Now, now, we'll think of something. ) [Mob:] We don't like What we don't understand In fact it scares us And this monster is mysterious at least Bring your guns Bring your knives Save your children and your wives We'll save our village and our lives We'll kill the Beast! ( [Cogsworth:] I knew it! I knew it was foolish to get our hopes up. [Lumiere:] Maybe it would have been better if she had never come at all. Could it be? [Mrs Potts:] Is it she? [Lumiere:] Sacre Bleu! Invaders! [Cogsworth:] Encroachers! [Mrs Potts:] And they have the mirror! [Cogsworth:] Warn the Master! If it's a fight they want, we'll be ready for them! Who's with me? [Gaston:] Take whatever booty you can find. But remember, the Beast is mine! ) [Objects:] Hearts ablaze Banners high We go marching into battle Unafraid although the danger just increased [Mob:] Raise the flag Sing the song Here we come, we're fifty strong And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong Let's kill the Beast! ( [Mrs Potts:] Pardon me, Master. [Beast:] Leave me in peace. [Mrs Potts:] But sir! The castle is under attack! ) [Mob:] Kill the Beast! Kill the Beast ( [Lumiere:] This isn't working!

True that he's no Prince Charming But there's something in him that I simply didn't see [Lumiere:] Well, who'd have thought? [Mrs Potts:] Well, bless my soul [Cogsworth:] Well, who'd have known? [Mrs Potts:] Well, who indeed? [Lumiere:] And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own? [Mrs Potts:] It's so peculiar. Wait and see [Lumiere and Cogsworth:] We'll wait and see [All three:] A few days more There may be something there that wasn't there before [Cogsworth:] You know, perhaps there's somthing there that wasn't there before [Mrs Potts:] There may be something there that wasn't there before
