I Am Belle
[Intro]
Thank you, sir, for the rose
It's my favorite color, yellow
Marry me?
Excuse me
But there's something you should know

[Chorus]
I am Belle and you are Gaston
We are nothing alike
We're not the same type
I can tell so I'm askin'
What's a guy like you doing
With a girl like me?
We got nothing in common
It's easy to see
So what's a guy like you doing
With a girl like me?

Oh I'll admit you're handsome and swell
Tall, dark and strong - that's all very well
But good looks aren't everything you know
What matters is your heart as well as your soul
All the contents of such are shown by your talk
Your actions, words, deeds, the places you walk
There's more to this life than just how you're dressed
I see what's inside you and I'm not impressed
[Chorus]
I am Belle and you are Gaston
We are nothing alike
We're not the same type
I can tell so I'm askin'
What's a guy like you doing
With a girl like me?
We got nothing in common
It's easy to see
So what's a guy like you doing
With a girl like me?

You occupy your time for hours with your looks
I occupy mine with flowers and books
You talk to me about your buddy's new cars
I talk to you about my studies of the stars
You think a star is a movie's sharp guy
I know a star is a sparkle in the sky
You buy Sports Ill. calendars and Playboy magazine
I consider such things to be distinctly obscene

[Bridge]
You're Gaston, it's true:
You're crude, you're rude, always in a bad mood
You're a slouch on the couch and plus you're a grouch
You are Gaston - that's you
I am Belle, can't you see?
I'm sweet, I'm neat, I'm straight in my seat
I sow, I grow, I learn and I know
I am Belle - that's me
[Outro]
Thank you, sir for the rose
It's my favorite color, yellow
Marry me?
Excuse me
But there's something you should know...

I am Belle and you are Gaston
We are nothing alike
We're not the same type
I can tell so I'm askin'
What's a guy like you doing
With a girl like me?
We got nothing in common
It's easy to see
So what's a guy like you doing
With a girl like me?
