| 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: |
Good morning, Monsieur. |
| Baker: |
And where are you off to, today? |
| 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? |
| Woman: |
Never part of any crowd |
| Man: |
'Cause her head's up on some cloud |
| Townsfolk: |
No denying she's a funny girl that Belle |
| Man I: |
Bonjour! |
| Woman I: |
Good day! |
| Man I: |
How is your fam'ly? |
| Woman 2: |
Bonjour! |
| Man 2: |
Good day! |
| Woman 2: |
How is your wife? |
| Woman 3: |
I need six eggs! |
| Woman 4: |
That's too expensive! |
| Belle: |
There must be more than this provincial life! |
| Bookseller: |
Ah, Belle. |
| Belle: |
Good morning, sir. I've come to return the book I borrowed. |
| Bookseller: |
Finished already? |
| Belle: |
Oh, I couldn't put it down. Have you got anything new? |
| Bookseller: |
Not since yesterday. |
| 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: |
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 |
| Man: |
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: |
I got it Gaston! 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. --- |
|
And no girl, for that matter. |
| Gaston: |
It's true, LeFou. And I've got |
|
my sights set on that one. |
| LeFou: |
The inventor's daughter? |
| Gaston: |
She's the one - the lucky girl |
|
I'm going to marry. |
| LeFou: |
But she's - |
| Gaston: |
The most beautiful girl in town. |
| LeFou: |
I know, but - |
| Gaston: |
That makes her the best. And don't |
|
I deserve the best? |
| LeFou: |
Of course you do! |
| Gaston: |
Right from the moment when I met her, saw her |
|
I said she's gorgeous and I fell |
|
Here in town there's only she |
|
Who is beautiful as me |
|
So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle |
| Bimbettes: |
Look there he goes |
|
Isn't he dreamy? |
|
Monsieur Gaston |
|
Oh he's so cute! |
|
Be still my heart |
|
I'm hardly breathing |
|
He's such a tall, dark, strong and handsome brute! |
| Woman 1: |
Bonjour! |
| Gaston: |
Pardon |
| Belle: |
Good day |
| Woman 2: |
Mais oui! |
| Woman 3: |
You call this bacon? |
| Woman 4: |
What lovely grapes! |
| Man 1: |
Some cheese |
| Woman 5: |
Ten yards! |
| Man 1: |
one pound |
| Gaston: |
'scuse me! |
| Cheese merchant: |
I'll get the knife |
| Gaston: |
Please let me through! |
| Woman 6: |
This bread - |
| Woman 7: |
Those fish - |
| Woman 6: |
it's stale! |
| Woman 7: |
they smell! |
| Men: |
Madame's mistaken. |
| Women: |
Well, maybe so |
| Townsfolk: |
Good morning! Oh, good morning! |
| 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 |
|
The girl is strange but special |
|
A most peculiar mad'moiselle! |
| Women: |
It's a pity and a sin |
| Men: |
She doesn't quite fit in |
| Townsfolk: |
'Cause she really is a funny girl |
|
A beauty but a funny girl |
|
She really is a funny girl |
|
That Belle! |
