Belle
Little town, itīs a quiet village
Every day like the one before
Little town full of little people
Waking up to stay...
Lady
Bonjour!
Man Carrying Grain Sack
Bonjour!
Egg Man
Bonjour!
Washer Woman
Bonjour!
Baker
Bonjour!
Belle
There goes the baker with this tray like always
the same old bread and rolls to sell
Man Carrying Grain Sack
Good day
Milkmaid
How is your wife?
Bread Lady
I need... six eggs
Lady
Thatīs too expensive!
Belle
There must be more than this provincial life!
Butcher/Baker/Candlestick Maker
Look, there she goes-the girl is so peculiar
I wonder if sheīs feeling well
All Female Villagers
With a dreamy, far-off look
All Male Villagers
And her nose stuck in a book
All Villagers
What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle
Belle
Oh... isnīt this amazing?
Itīs my favorite part because... youīll see
Hereīs where she meets Prince Charming
But she wonīt discover that itīs him
Till chpter three.
Lady
Now itīs no wonder that her name means 'beauty'
Her looks have got no parallel
Hatseller
But behind that fair facade
Iīm afraid sheīs rather odd
Lady/Hatseller
Very different from the rest of us
More Villagers
Sheīs nothing like the rest of us
All Villagers
Yes, different from the rest of us is Belle
Gaston
Right from the moment when I met her saw her
I said sheīs gorgeous and I fell
Here in town thereīs only she
Whoīs as beautiful as me
So Iīm making plans to woo and marry Belle
Silly Girls
Look, there he goes!
Isnīt the dreamy?
Monsieur Gaston!
Oh, heīs so cute!
Be still my heart!
Iīm hardly breathing!
Heīs such a tall, dark, strong, and handsome brute!
Lady
Bonjour!
Gaston
Pardon
Belle
Good day
Washer Woman
Mais oui!
Lady with Baby
You call this bacon?
Bread Lady
What lovely grapes!
Baker
Some cheese...
Sausage Girl
... then yards!
Man Carrying Grain Sack
... one pound
Gaston
īScuse me!
Butcher
Iīll get the knife
Gaston
Please let me through!
Washer woman
This bread...
Lady
Those fish...
Washer Woman
... itīs stale
Lady
... they smell!
All Male Villagers
Madameīs mistaken!
All Female Villagers
Well, maybe so!
All Villagers
Good morning!
Belle
There must be more than this provincial life!
All Villagers
Oh, good morning!
Gaston
Just watch... Iīm going to make Belle my wife!
All Villagers
Look, there she goes... a girl whoīs strange but special
A most peculiar mademoiselle
All Female Villagers
Itīs pity and a sin
All Male Villagers
She doesnīt quite fit in
All Villagers
īCause she really is a funny girl
A beauty but a funny girl
She really is a funny girl... that Belle!
