Alan Menken
The Mob Song
[RICKY]
Through the mist, through the woods
Through the darkness and the shadows
It's a nightmare, but it's one exciting ride

[HOWIE]
Say a prayer, then we're there
At the drawbridge of a castle
And there's something truly terrible inside

[RICKY]
It's a beast

[HOWIE]
He's got fangs

[RICKY]
Razor-sharp ones

[HOWIE]
Massive paws, killer claws for the feast

[RICKY]
Hear him roar, see him foam

[HOWIE]
But we're not coming home 'til he's dead
Good and dead
[ENSEMBLE]
Kill the beast
Kill the beast

[EAST HIGH STUDENTS]
Light your torch, mount your horse
Screw your courage to the sticking place
We're counting on Gaston to lead the way
Through a mist, through a wood
Where within a haunted castle
Something's lurking that you don't see every day

[NORTH HIGH STUDENTS]
It's a beast
One as tall as a mountain
We won't rest 'til he's good and deceased
Sally forth, tally ho
Grab your sword, grab your bow
Praise the Lord and here we go

[ANTOINE]
We're not safe until he's dead
He'll come stalking us at night

[CARLOS]
Set to sacrifice our children
To his monstrous appetite
[ANTOINE]
He'll wreak havoc on our village if we let him wander free

[CARLOS]
So it's time to take some action, boys
It's time to follow me

[ENSEMBLE]
We don't like
What we don't understand
In fact, it scares us
And this monster is mysterious at least
Bring your guns, bring your knives
Save your children and your wives
We'll save our village and our lives
We'll kill the beast
Kill the beast

[LILY]
Hearts ablaze, banners high
We go marching into battle
Unafraid although the danger just increased

[ASHLYN]
Raise the flag, sing the song
Here we come, we're fifty strong
And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong
[ENSEMBLE]
We'll kill the beast
