Human Again Lyrics by Angela Lansbury, Jerry Orbach, David Ogden Stiers
Beauty and the Beast (Special Edition Soundtrack)
2002
[LUMIÈRE, spoken] Oh, lighten up Cogsworth, and let nature take its course! [MRS. POTTS, spoken] It's obvious there's a spark between them. [COGSWORTH, spoken] Yes, yes. But there's no harm in fanning the flames, you know... a little. Besides, they must fall in love tonight if we ever expect to be human again. [LUMIÈRE, spoken] Aaah...human again. [MRS. POTTS, spoken] Human again. [LUMIÈRE, spoken] Yes, think of what that means! (sung) 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! [LUMIÈRE] I'll hop down off the shelf And tout de suite be myself [LUMIÈRE & MRS. POTTS] I can't wait to be human again [ASSORTED] When we're human again Only human again When we're knickknacks and whatnots no more When we're human again Good and human again [WARDROBE] Ah, chérie, 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 savoir-faire I'll wear gowns! I'll have hair! It's my prayer to be human again [COGSWORTH & MRS. POTTS] When we're human again Only human again When the world once more starts making sense [COGSWORTH] I'll unwind for a change [LUMIÈRE] 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 fools 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! Shine up the brass on the door Alert the dustpail and the broom If all goes as planned Our time may be at hand Any day now! [BABETTE & DUSTERS] 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! We'll be 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 vivre We'll be playin' again Holiday'n again And we're prayin' it's ASAP We will push, they will shove They will, whoosh, fall in love And we'll finally be human again! [Dialogue] 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-three's 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!
