[Maurice:]
Help! Someone help me!
[Tavern keeper:]
Maurice?
[Maurice:]
Please! Please, I need your help. He's got her -
he's got her locked in the dungeon!
[LeFou:]
Who?
[Maurice:]
Belle. We must go. N-not a minute to lose!
[Gaston:]
Whoa! Slow down, Maurice.
Who's got Belle locked in a dungeon?
[Maurice:]
A beast! A horrible, monstrous beast!
[Patron I:]
Is it a big beast?
[Maurice:]
Huge!
[Patron II:]
With a long, ugly snout?
[Maurice:]
Hideously ugly!
[Drinker III:]
And sharp, cruel fangs?
[Maurice:]
Yes! Yes! Will you help me?
[Gaston:]
All right, old man. We'll help you out.
[Maurice:]
You will? Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!
[Tavern keeper:]
Crazy old Maurice.
[Patron I:]
He's always good for a laugh.
[Gaston:]
Crazy old Maurice, hmmm?
Crazy old Maurice. Hmmm.
LeFou, I'm afraid I've been thinking
[Lefou:]
A dangerous pastime
[Gaston:]
I know
But that whacky old coot is Belle's father
And his sanity's only "so-so"
Now the wheels in my head have been turning
Since I looked at that loony old man
See, I've promised myself I'd be married to Belle
And right now I'm evolving a plan
If I . . . (whisper)
[LeFou:]
Yes?
[Gaston:]
Then we . . . (whisper)
[LeFou:]
No! Would she . . .
[Gaston:]
(whisper) Guess!
[LeFou:]
Now I get it!
[Both:]
Let's go!
No one plots like Gaston
[Gaston:]
Takes cheap shots like Gaston
[LeFou:]
Plans to persecute harmless crackpots like Gaston
[Chorus:]
So his marriage we soon'll be celebrating
My what a guy!
Gaston
