Life is so unnerving For a servant who´s not serving He´s not whole without a soul to wait upon Ah, those good old days when we were useful —Eh, Cogsworth? Suddenly those good old days are gone
Too long, we´ve been rusting
Needing so much more than dusting Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills Most days, we just lay around the castle Flabby, fat, and lazy You walked in and oops-a-daisy
It´s a guest! It´s a guest! Sake´s alive, well I´ll be blessed! Wine´s been poured and thank the Lord I´ve had the napkins freshly pressed With dessert, she´ll want tea And my dear, that´s fine with me While the cups do their soft-shoein´ I´ll be bubbling, I´ll be brewing
I´ll get warm, piping hot Heaven´s sakes! Is that a spot? Clean it up! We want the company impressed!
We´ve got a lot to do Is it one lump or two? For you, our guest!
