Belle

Little town, it's a quiet village
Every day like the one before
Little town, full of little people
Waking up to say

Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!

There goes the baker with his tray like always
The same old bread and rolls to sell
Every morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town

Good morning, Belle!
Good morning, Monsieur!
Where you off to?
The book shop
I just finished the most wonderful story
About a beanstalk and an ogre and—
That's nice. Marie!
The baguettes! Hurry up!

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

Bonjour!
Good day!
How is your family?
Bonjour!
Good day!
How is your wife?
I need six eggs!
That's too expensive!
There must be more than this provincial life!

Ah, Belle
Good morning! I've come to return the book I borrowed
Finished already?
Oh, I couldn't put it down! Have you got anything new?
Aha! Not since yesterday!
That's all right. I'll borrow... this one!
That one? But you've read it twice!
Well, it's my favorite!
Far off places, daring sword fights, magic spells, a prince in disguise—
If you like it all that much, it's yours!
But sir!
I insist!
Well, thank you! Thank you very much!

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

Oh, isn't this amazing?
It's my favorite part because— you'll see
Here's where she meets Prince Charming
But she won't discover that it's him 'til chapter three!

Now, it's no wonder that her name means "Beauty"
Her looks have got no parallel
But behind that fair facade
I'm afraid she's rather odd
Very different from the rest of us
She's nothing like the rest of us
Yes, different from the rest of us is Belle!

Wow! You didn't miss a shot, Gaston!
You're the greatest hunter in the whole world!
I know
No beast alive stands a chance against you!
And no girl, for that matter
It's true, LeFou! And I've got my sights set on that one
The inventor's daughter?
She's the one — the lucky girl I'm going to marry!
But she's—
The most beautiful girl in town
I know, but—
That makes her the best! And don't I deserve the best?
Well of course, I mean you do, but I—

Right from the moment that I met her, saw her
I said, "She's gorgeous," and I fell
Here in town, there's only she
Who is as beautiful as me
So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle!

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!

(Bonjour!)
Pardon!
(Good day!)
Mais oui!
(You call this bacon?)
What lovely grapes!
(Some cheese!)
Ten yards!
(One pound!)
'Scuse me!
(I'll get the knife)
Please let me through!
(This bread!)
Those fish!
(It's stale!)
They smell!
(Madame's mistaken)
Well, maybe so!
There must be more than this provincial life!
Just watch, I'm going to make Belle my wife!

Look, there she goes
The girl is strange but special
A most peculiar mademoiselle
It's a pity and a sin
She 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!

Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
