Belle lyrics
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
Good morning, sir. I ve come to return the book I borrowed.

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
