Broadway Beat

Be Our Guest

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'll provide the rest
Soup du jour
Hot hors d'oeuvres
Why, 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!
Get your worries off your chest
Let us say for your entree
We've an array; may we suggest:
Try the bread! Try the soup!
When the croutons loop de loop
It's a treat for any dinner
Don't belive me? Ask the china
Singing pork! Dancing veal!
What an entertaining meal!
How could anyone be gloomy and depressed?
We'll make you shout "encore!"
And send us out for more
So, be our guest!

Be our guest!

Be our guest!

Life is so unnerving
For a servant 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-shoein'
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! Be our guest!
Be our guest! Be our guest!
Our command is your request
It's been years since we've 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!

You Can’t Stop the Beat

You can’t stop an avalanche as it races down the hill

You can try to stop the seasons, girl,

But you know you never will

And you can try to stop my dancing feet,

But I just can’t stand still

Cause the world keeps spinning round and round

And my heart’s keeping time to the speed of sound

I was lost till I heard the drums and I found my way

Cause you can’t stop the beat

Ever since we first saw the light

You know we found out we could shake it on a Saturday night

And so I’m gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today

Cause you can’t stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky

You can wonder if you wanna, but I never ask why

And if you try to hold me down, I’m gonna spit in your eye and say

That you can’t stop the beat

You can’t stop today as it comes speeding down the track

Child, yesterday is history

And it’s never coming back

Cause tomorrow is a brand new day

And it don’t know white from black

Cause the world keeps spinning round and round

And my heart’s keeping time to the speed of sound

I was lost till I heard the drums and I found my way

Cause you can’t stop the beat

Ever since we first saw the light

You know we found out we could shake it on a Saturday night

And so I’m gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today

Cause you can’t stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky

You can wonder if you wanna, but I never ask why

And if you try to hold me down, I’m gonna spit in your eye and say

That you can’t stop the beat

You can’t stop the beat

Seventy-Six Trombones

Seventy-six trombones led the big parade

With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand

They were followed by rows and rows

Of the finest virtuosos

The cream of every famous band

Seventy-six trombones caught the morning sun

With a hundred and ten cornets right behind

There were more than a thousand reeds

Springing up like reeds

There were horns of every shape and kind

There were fifty mounted cannon in the battery

Thundering, thundering, louder than before

Clarinets of every size

And trumpeters who’d improvise

A full octave higher than the score

Seventy-six trombones hit the counterpoint

While a hundred and ten cornets blazed away

To the rhythm of harch, harch, harch

All the kids began to march

And they’re marching still right to day

Marching still right today

I Whistle a Happy Tune

Whenever I feel afraid

I hold my head erect

And whistle a happy tune

So no one will suspect I’m afraid

While shivering in my shoes

I strike a careless pose

And whistle a happy tune

And no one ever knows I’m a afraid

The result of this deception

Is very strange to tell

For when I fool the people I fear

I fool myself as well

I whistle a happy tune

And every single time

The happiness in the tune

Convinces me that I’m not afraid

The result of this deception

Is very strange to tell

For when I fool the people I fear

I fool myself as well

I whistle a happy tune

And every single time

The happiness in the tune

Convinces me that I’m not afraid

Make believe you’re brave

And the trick will take you far

You may be as brave

As you make believe you are

Hard Knock Life

It's a hard-knock life for us!
It's a hard-knock life for us!

'Stead of treated,

We get tricked!

'Stead of kisses,

We get kicked!
It's a hard-knock life!
Got no folks to speak of, so,
It's the hard-knock row we ho

Cotton blanket

'stead a wool

Empty Bellies

'Stead a full!
It's a hard-knock life!

Don't it feel like the wind is always howlin?

Don't it seem like there's never any light!

Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?

It's easier than putting up a fight.

No one's there when your dreams at night are creepy!
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink!
No one dries when your eyes get wet and weepy

From the crying you would think this place's would sink!
Ohhhh!!!!!!!
Empty belly life!
Rotten smelly life!
Full of sorrow life!
No tomorrow life!

Santa Claus we never see

Santa Claus, what's that?
Who's he?

No one cares for you a smidge
When you're in a orphanage
It's the hard knock life

You'll stay up till this dump shines like the top of the Chrysler Building.

Yank the whiskers from her chin
Jab her with a safety Pin
Make her drink a Mickey Finn
I love you Miss Hannigan

Get to work!
Strip them beds!
Scrub that floor!
Polish my shoes!
And I mean.
Start.
NOW!

It's the hard-knock life for us
It's the hard-knock life for us
No one cares for you a smidge
When you’re in a orphanage
It's The Hard Knock Life!
It's the Hard Knock Life!
ITS THE HARD KNOCK LIFE!!!

Seasons of Love

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes

Five hundred twenty five thousand moments so dear

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes

How do you measure, measure a year

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee

In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife

In five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes

How do you measure a year in the life

How about love?

Measure in love

Seasons of love

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes

Five hundred twenty five thousand journeys to plan

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes

How do you measure the life of a woman or a man

How about love?

Measure in love

Seasons of love

Give my Regards to George M. Cohan

Give my regards to Broadway

Remember me to Herald Square

Tell all the gang at Forty Second Street

That I will soon be there

Whisper of how I’m yearning

To mingle with the old time throng

Give my regards to old Broadway

And say that I’ll be there, e’re long

I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy

A Yankee Doodle do or die

A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam’s

Born on the Fourth of July

I’ve got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart

She’s my Yankee Doodle joy

Yankee Doodle came to London

Just to ride the ponies

I am a Yankee Doodle Boy

You’re a grand old flag

You’re a high flying flag

And forever in peace may you wave

You’re the emblem of

The land I love

The home of the free and the brave

Every heart beats true

Neath the red, white, and blue

Where there’s never a boast or brag

But should auld acquaintance be forgot

Keep your eye on the grand old flag

I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy

Keep your eye on the grand old flag

Give my regards to Broadway

For Good

I’ve heard it said

That people come into our lives

For a reason

Bringing something we must learn

And we are led

To those who help us most to grow

If we let them

And we help them in return

Well, I don’t know if I believe that’s true

But I know I’m who I am today

Because I knew you

Like a comet pulled from orbit

As it passes a sun

Like a stream that meets a boulder

Halfway through the wood

Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better

But because I knew you

I have been changed for good

It well may be

That we will never meet again

In this lifetime

So let me say before we part

So much of me

Is made of what I learned from you

You’ll be with me

Like a handprint on my heart

And now whatever way our stories end

I know that you have rewritten mine

By being my friend

Like a ship blown from its mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a seed dropped by a sky bird

In a distant wood

Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better

I do believe I have been changed for the better

And because I knew you

I have been changed for good

We Go Together
