Human Again

Ha ha, we, my friends.
The day we have waited for may be at hand!
MRS. POTTS
Oh, only if that were true, Lumiere!
LUMIERE
Aaah… human again
MRS. POTTS
Human again
LUMIERE
Yes, think of what that means!
LUMIERE
I’ll be cooking again
Be good-looking again
With a mademoiselle on each arm
When I’m human again
Only human again
Poised and polished and gleaming with charm…
I’ll be courting again
Chic and sporting again
MRS. POTTS
Which should cause sev’ral husbands alarm!
CHIP
I’ll hop down off the shelf
LUMIERE
And toute suite be myself
CHIP
I can’t wait to be human again
MME. DE LA GRANDE BOUCHE, MRS. POTTS, BABETTE
When we’re human again
Only human again
When we’re knickknacks and whatnots no more
CHIP
Little push, little shove
They coul, whoosh fall in love
MME. DE LA GRANDE BOUCHE
Ah, cherie, won’t it all be top-drawer
I’ll wear lipstick and rouge
And I won’t be so huge
Why, I’ll easily fit through that door
I’ll exude savior-faire
I’ll wear gowns!
I’ll have hair!
It’s my prayer to be human again
COGSWORTH
When I’m human again
Only human again
When the world once more making sense
I’ll unwind for a change
LUMIERE
Really? That’d be strange!
COGSWORTH
Can I help it if I’m t-t-tense?
In a shack by the sea
I’ll sit back sipping tea
Let my early retirement commence
Far from fool made of wax
I’ll get down to brass tacks and relax
ALL
When I’m human again
So sweep the dust from the floor!
Let’s let some light in the room!
I can feel, I can tell
Someone might break the spell
Any day now!
LUMIERE/BABETTE
Shine up the brass on the door!
Alert the dustpail and the broom!
ALL
If all goes as planned
Our time may be at hand
Any day now!
MRS. POTTS, EGG TIMER, WHISK
Open the shutters and let in some air
MRS. POTTS
Put these here and put those over there
ALL
Sweep up the years
Of sadness and tears
And throw them away!
BELLE
When Guinevere heard that Arthur was slain, she went away to a convent,
and no one could make her smile again. The
end.
BEAST
What a beautiful story
BELLE
Oh, I knew you would like it!
I would like to ask you something
BEAST
What’s that?
BELLE
A second chance.
Would you have dinner with me tonight?
BEAST
Huh? Me? You?
Well, that would be, I mean -- Oh, yes!
ALL
When we’re human again
Only human again
When the girl fin’lly sets us all free
Cheeks a-bloomin' again
We’re assumin' again
We’ll resume our long lost joie de vie
We’ll be playin' again
Holiday' again
And we’re prayin' it’s A-S-A-P
When we cast off this pall
We’ll stand straight, we’ll walk tall
When we’re all that we were
Thanks to him, thanks to her
Coming closer and closer
And closer and…
We’ll be dancing again!
We’ll be twirling again!
We’ll be whirling around with such ease
When we’re human again
Only human again
We’ll go waltzing those old one-two-threes
We’ll be floating again!
We’ll be gliding again!
Stepping, striding as fine as you please
Like a real human does
I’ll be all that I was
On that glorious morn
When we’re fin’lly reborn
And we’re all of us human again!
