Maison des Lunes lyrics

[Gaston]

When a man like me is thwarted

And denied his honeymoon

[Lefou]

When the pretty thing he's courted

Refuses to swoon

[Gaston]

Then the time has come for a murky plan

[Lefou]

For which he turns to a murky man

[All]

To find that fiend where better than

At the Maison des Lunes?

[Gaston]

You'll be strapping up an inmate

[Lefou]

Very tightly

[Gaston]

Very soon

But we won't bring him in late

[Lefou]

Your check-in time's noon

[D'Arque]

How sad Maurice is not too well

[Gaston]

Prepare a five-star padded cell!

[All]

And book him in for a long, long spell

At the Maison des Lunes

[Gaston]

Do I make myself entirely clear?

[Lefou]

It's the simplest deal of your whole foul career

[Gaston]

Put Maurice away and she'll be here in moments

[Lefou]

In a dreadful state

[Gaston]

She'll capitulate to me

[D'Arque]

Oh! Oh! Oh, I love incarceration

I could lock up a platoon

[Gaston]

We'll apply your inclination

To a mad old buffon

[Gaston & Lefou]

Then wave one bachelor goodbye

[Gaston]

She'll be my bride

[Lefou]

She'd rather die

Than have her daddy ossify

[D'Arque]

The time's opportune

[All]

So book the church, raise glasses high

To the Maison des Lunes!
