Gaston From "Beauty and the Beast" Music: Alan Menken Lyrics: Howard Ashman Performed by: Richard White [Gaston], Jesse Corti [LeFou], et al. ( [Gaston:] Who does she think she is? That girl has tangled with the wrong man! No one says "no" to Gaston! [LeFou:] Heh heh. Darn right. [Gaston:] Dismissed! Rejected! Publicly Humiliated! Why, it's more than I can bear. [LeFou:] More beer? [Gaston:] What for? Nothing helps. I'm disgraced. [LeFou:] Who, you? Never! Gaston, you've got to pull yourself together. ) Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Gaston Looking so down in the dumps Every guy here'd love to be you, Gaston Even when taking your lumps There's no man in town as admired as you You're ev'ryone's favorite guy Ev'ryone's awed and inspired by you And it's not very hard to see why No one's slick as Gaston No one's quick as Gaston No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston For there's no man in town half as manly Perfect, a pure paragon You can ask any Tom, Dick or Stanley And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on [Chorus:] No one's been like Gaston A king pin like Gaston [LeFou:] No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston [Gaston:] As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating [Chorus:] My what a guy, that Gaston Give five "hurrahs!" Give twelve "hip-hips!" [LeFou:] Gaston is the best And the rest is all drips [Chorus:] No one fights like Gaston Douses lights like Gaston [Cronie:] In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston [Bimbettes:] For there's no one as burly and brawny [Gaston:] As you see I've got biceps to spare [LeFou:] Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny [Gaston] (That's right!) And ev'ry last inch of me's covered with hair [Cronies:] No one hits like Gaston [Townsman:] Matches wits like Gaston [LeFou:] In a spitting match nobody spits like Gaston [Gaston:] I'm espcially good at expectorating (Ptooey!) [Chorus:] Ten points for Gaston! [Gaston:] When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs Ev'ry morning to help me get large And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs So I'm roughly the size of a barge [Chorus:] No one shoots like Gaston Makes those beauts like Gaston [LeFou:] Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Gaston [Gaston:] I use antlers in all of my decorating [Chorus:] Say it again Who's a man among men? And then say it once more Who's the hero next door? Who's a super success? Don't you know? Can't you guess? Ask his fans and his five hangers-on There's just one guy in town who's got all of it down [LeFou:] And his name's G-A-S- T - G-A-S-T - E - G-A-S-T-O - oh! [Chorus:] Gaston Gaston (Reprise) Music: Alan Menken Lyrics: Howard Ashman Performed by: Richard White [Gaston], Jesse Corti [LeFou], Rex Everhardt [Maurice], et al. ( [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!
