Ma chere Mademoiselle, it is with deepest pride
and greatest pleasure that we welcome you 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 provide the rest
Soup du jour

Hot hors d'oeuvres
hy, we only live to serve
Try the grey stuff, 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 out guest
If you're stressed

It's fine dining we suggest
Be our guest
Be our guest

Be our guest

Life is so unnerving

For a servat 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!


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 shoeing

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
Our command is your request
It's ten years since we 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
'Til 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
