Soundtracks - 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 The bookshop. I just finished the most wonderful story About a beanstalk and an ogre and a - BAKER That's nice. Marie! The baguettes! Hurry up! TOWNSFOLK Look there she goes that girl is strange, no question Dazed and distracted, can't you tell?

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.

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?
