I know there were quite a few of these on the old boards. But I'm going to revive it with a new one. =)

Bring on the Men from Jekyll & Hyde

(See it sang here)

There was a time
I don't know when
I didn't have much time for men
but this is now and that was then, I'm learning

A girl alone, all on her own
must try to have a heart of stone
So I try not to make it known my yearning
I try to show I have no need
I really do, I don't succeed

so let's bring..on the men
and let the fun begin
a little touch of sin
why wait another minute
step this way its time for us to play
they say we may not pass this way again
so lets waste no more time
Bring on the men

I always knew, I always said
a silk and lace in black and red
will drive a man right off his head, its easy

So many men, so little time
I want them all, is that a crime (NO!)
I dont know why they say that I'm too easy
They make me laugh, they make me cry
they make me sick, so god knows why

we say bring on the men
and let the fun begin
a little touch of sin
why wait another minute
step this way its time for us to play
they say we may not pass this way again
so lets waste no more time
bring on the men

They break your heart
they steal your soul
take you apart
and yet they somehow make you whole
so whats their game
I suppose a rose by any other name
the perfume and the pricks the same

I like to have a man for breakfast each day
I'm very social and I like it that way
by late mid-morning I need something to munch
so I ask over 2 men for lunch

And men are mad about my afternoon 'tease'.
they're quite informal I just do it to please
those tripple sandwiches are my favorite ones
I'm also very partial to buns

My healthy appetite gets strongest at night
My at home dinners are my men friends delight
When I invite the fellas over to dine
they all come early, in bed by nine!

so lets bring on the men
and let the fun begin
a little touch of sin
why wait another minute
step this way it's time for us to play
they say we may not pass this way again
so lets waste no more time
bring on the men!

Found another song for Babs, besides I Cain't Say NO and T-R-O-U-B-L-E ! It's so her and is a perfect description of her and Lumi's relationship. Without further ado, I give you Firecracker by Josh Turner!

Yeah
When I look in her eyes
It ain't no surprise
Sparks start a flyin' like the 4th of July

She gets me so hot, my heart starts a pumpin'
When we get to kissin', there ain't no stoppin'

When it comes to love
She ain't no slacker
My little darlin' is a firecracker

When I light the fuse
I gotta get back quick
You gotta be careful with a dynamite stick

Son of a gun she's fun to handle
And she packs a punch like a roman candle
She's a pack of black cats in a red paper wrapper
My little darlin' is a firecracker

We might not oughtta take a roll in the hay
Cause we'd burn the barn down one of these days
We're a match made in heaven
And it ain't no joke
But I'd sure hate to see it go up in smoke

We got a good thing going
And it feels so right
She's a firecracker
She's the light of my life.

She goes off with a great big bang
Boys I tell ya its a beautiful thing
She takes off you better hang on tight
She's a blonde (brunette!) bottle rocket
In the middle of the night

When she makes love she's a heart attacker
My little darlin' is a firecracker

We might not oughtta take a roll in the hay
Cause we'd burn the barn down one of these days
We're a match made in heaven
And it ain't no joke.
But I'd sure hate to see it go up in smoke

We got a good thing going
And it feels so right
She's a firecracker
She's the light of my life.

Yeah, we got a good thing going
And it feels so right
Cause she's a firecracker
She's the light of my life.

We got a good thing going
And it feels so right
She's a firecracker
She's the light of my life.

She's a firecracker
She's the light of my life

Firecracker, firecracker

woohoo

Firecracker, firecracker
Bang
Firecracker, firecracker

:P Had to add the brunette in there. Just because ;)

That has Babette written all over it! ;)

This might seem clich'e and stupid but, I think Lady Marmalade would good for Babs.

^ agreed! I was thinking that too :D

Well one song I thought of comes from Jekyll and Hyde the musical. "A new Life"

(from Jekyll and Hyde)
Music: Frank Wildhorn
Lyrics: Leslie Bricusse

A new life,
What I wouldn't give
To have a new life
One thing I have learned
As I go through life
Nothing is for free
Along the way!

A new start
That's the thing I need
To give me new heart
Half a chance in life
To find a new part
Just a simple role
That I can play

A new hope
Something to convince me
To renew hope!
A new day
Bright enough to help me
Find my way!

A new chance
One that maybe has
A touch of romance
Where can it be,
The chance for me?

A new dream
I have one I know
That very few dream
I would like to see
That overdue dream
Even though
It never may come true! A new love Though I know there's no
Such thing as true love
Even so,
Although I never knew love
Still I feel that one dream is my due!

A new world
This one thing I want
To ask of you world
Once before it's time
To say Adieu, world
One sweet chance to
Prove the cynics wrong!

A new life
More and more I'm sure
As I go through life
Just to play the game
And to pursue life
Just to share it's pleasures
And belong
That's what I've been here for
All along!
Each days a brand new life!

Why I hadn't thought of this song for Babs as of yet, I don't have a clue. :tongue: But The Woman in Me by Shaina Twain is so her.

"The Woman In Me (Needs The Man In You)"

I'm not always strong
And sometimes I'm even wrong
But I win when I choose
And I can't stand to lose
But I can't always be
The rock that you see
When the nights get too long
And I just can't go on

The woman in me
Needs you to be
The man in my arms
To hold tenderly
Cause I'm a woman in love
And it's you I run to
Yeah the woman in me
Needs the man in you

When the world wants too much
And it feels cold and out of touch
It's a beautiful place
When you kiss my face

The woman in me
Needs you to be
The man in my arms
To hold tenderly
Cause I'm a woman in love
And it's you I run to
Yeah the woman in me
Needs the man in you

Yeah the woman in me
Needs the man in you

I need you baby
Yeah yeah Oh baby...

I just saw Mamma Mia, and the song "Does Your Mother Know?" strikes me as something Babette would sing. There is also a line just before the song starts that goes, "Little boys who play with fire get their fingers burned."

you're so hot
teasing me
so you're blue but I can't take a chance on a kid like you
it's something I couldn't do
there's that look
in your eye
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
ah, but boy you're only a child

well I can dance with you honey
if you think it's funny
does your mother know that you're out?
and I can chat with you baby
flirt a little maybe
does your mother know that you're out?

take it easy
better slow down boy
that's no way to go
does your mother know
take it easy
try to cool it boy
take it nice and slow
does your mother know

I can see
what you want
but you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun
so many I'm not the one
now you're so cute
I like your style
and I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile
but boy you're only a child

well I can dance with you honey
if you think it's funny
does your mother know that you're out?
and I can chat with you baby
flirt a little maybe
does your mother know that you're out?

take it easy
better slow down boy
that's no way to go
does your mother know
take it easy
try to cool it boy
take it nice and slow
does your mother know

well I can dance with you honey
if you think it's funny
does your mother know that you're out?
and I can chat with you baby
flirt a little maybe
does your mother know that you're out?

I just saw Mamma Mia too, and that song would definitely a Babette song.

By the way, welcome to B&S! Why don't you start a thread in Be Our Guest so we can all properly Welcome you :)

Here's another appropriate song for Babs. The description from both of the singers fits her very well.

That's A Woman

[Paul:]
Woman
Such a delicate creature
Every feature needs to be loved from the start
Be tender and she'll surrender
Offend her, and she will harden her heart

[Ryan:]
Delicate creature is something she ain't
Better take it from me that's a woman
That isn't an angel that isn't a saint
Better take it from me that's a woman
She knows how to please and she knows how to play
Take it from me that's a woman
Forget to honor, love and obey
She'll take you and break you and throw you away
That's a woman, that's a woman

She knows every rule and she knows every trick
Take it from me that's a woman
How to kill with a word and cut to the quick
Take it from me that's a woman
How to look through you as if you're not there
Take it from me that's a woman
How to say no with a flick of her hair
She'll turn you and burn you and not even care
That's a woman that's a woman

[Paul:]
Faithful and true, that's a woman
Trusting in you, that's a woman
Gentle and constantly caring
Strong as the love she is sharing
When you look in the eyes of a woman

[Ryan:]
Look in her eyes you'll see nothing but lies, she's a woman

[Paul:]
And through the disguise of a woman

[Ryan:]
Every word is the same, she's just playing a game, she's a woman

[Paul:]
You'll see it all there, there's so much in the air

[Both:]
Nothing else can compare, that's a woman

[Paul:]
Woman, so soft and beguiling
See her smiling and feel your heart all aglow
Enfold her, lay her head on your shoulder
And hold her till you just can't let her go

[Ryan:]
Treat her as if you just don't give a damn
That's how to handle a woman
Be more of a stallion, less of a lamb
That's how to handle a woman
Keep her hanging around til she's ready to burst
That's how to handle a woman
Don't try to be bad, be the worst
Do unto others but just do it first
To a woman, to a woman

Be wise, be wary and be on your guard
That's how to handle a woman
If you feel like your falling you'd better be hard
Cause that's how to handle a woman
Don't let her get closer and don't let her in
That's how to handle a woman
Cause if you allow her get under your skin
My friend that's the end cause you ain't gonna win with a woman, with a woman

Look at her body and look at her move, now that's what I call a woman
I'm thinking now I've got something to prove cause that's what I call a woman
All my moves are stolen here, I can't get through to this woman
The pipes the pipes are calling here, I think I could be falling here for this woman
What a woman!!

[Paul:]
Faithful and true that's a woman

[Ryan:]
She couldn't be true, she's just playing with you, what a woman

[Paul:]
Trusting in you, that's a woman

[Paul:]
Trusting in who, you just haven't a clue, what a woman

[Paul:]
Gentle and constantly caring

[Ryan:]
Just let her be, this one's for me, what a woman

[Paul:]
Strong as the love she is sharing

[Both:]
When you look in the eyes of a woman
And through the disguise of a woman
You'll see it all there
There's so much in the air
Nothing else can compare,
That's a woman

[Ryan:]
Who'd ever thought I'd ever get caught

[Both:]
What a woman!

The song "Vacation" by Simple PLan always reminds me of them. I know it's about one girl, but I think sometimes Gaston feels this way ;)

i know a girl whos obsessed with a guy
she talks for hours and still tomorrow
she'll call again and when he thinks that this could be the end,
she calls again
at six in the morning she waits at the door
he tells her to leave but still tomorrow shell be ther again
she wont let go

cant you just go somewhere on vacation?
i could book your flight
and pack your bags
if you want
a one way ticket out of my life
watching you fly away
i never liked you

she dosent care if he trys to ignore
he runs away but still she follows
shell try again
she likes to think shell get him in the end
yeah

cant you just go somewhere on vacation?
i could book your flight
and pack your bags
if you want
a one way ticket out of my life
watching you fly away
i never liked you
i never wanted you
i never liked you
i never wanted you, whoa

cant you just go somewhere on vacation?
i could book your flight
and pack your bags
if you want
a one way ticket out of my life
watching you fly away
i never liked you
i never wanted you
i never liked you
im not in love with you

I think that you're thinking of the Bimbettes, Gaston's little Harem. This thread is for songs about Babette, the Feather Duster and Lumiere's love interest :)

But I do think that song could work well for the Bimbette girls!

Oh, sorry, I'm getting blind (or distracted :) )
As for Babette, the song "The bast damn thing" somehow reminds me of her:


I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad

Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see

[Chorus:]
That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't wanna hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex girlfriends

I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see

[Chorus]
