"Don't Fall in Love" is a song featured in Disney's film, Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas. It is sung by the villainous pipe organ, Forte, and is his attempt to persuade and tempt the Beast not to have any friendly or romantic feelings for Belle, so he can remain an enchanted pipe organ forever.
Lyrics[]
Forte: The quickest way to break your heart
Make you depressed and ill
Is to get tangled up inside
The side effects could kill
All passion is a waste of time
A deadly game pour vous
I am your friend, your cher ami
I wouldn't lie to you
If you must love someone, may I suggest
You love yourself!
Just think it through
You'll never leave, and you will find
You'll get more rest
You'll always feel as good as new
Your freedom is the most important thing, my friend
You must be strong, you mustn't bend
Don't talk for hours
Don't send flowers
Don't write poems
Don't sing songs and dance
Beneath the stars
That shine above
Don't fall in love
[spoken]
Oh, don't do it
As soon as your heart rules your head
Your life is not your own
It's hell when someone's always there
It's bliss to be alone
And love of any kind is bad
A dog, a child, a cat
They take up so much precious time
Now, where's the sense in that?
Love takes the wildest heart and makes it tame
If you're turned on, then just turn off
Emotions are a thing all great men overcame
Please, don't make this catastroph[e]
Don't get attached to anyone or anything
There's nothing worse than things that cling
You'll go to pot
You'll turn to drink
You'll never rest
You'll end up mad, and
Looking like some
Poor tormented dove
Don't fall in love
Don't-fall-in love!
Trivia[]
- This song, like Hellfire from The Hunchback of Notre Dame that was sung by Claude Frollo, has some rather mature lyrics that are not suitable for a family film.
