Ma chere Mademoiselle, it is with deepest pride  
and greatest pleasure that we welcome you tonight.  
And now we invite you to relax, let us pull up a  
chair as the dining room proudly presents -  
your dinner!

Be our guest! Be our guest!  
Put our service to the test  
Tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie  
And we’ll provide the rest  
Soup du jour  
Hot hors d’oeuvres  
Why, we only live to serve  
Try the grey stuff  
It’s delicious  
Don’t believe me? Ask the dishes

You could be a meteorologist all your life… and never see something like this. It would be a disaster of epic proportions. It would be… the perfect storm.
