Prisoners
Uh-uh, Uh-uh, Uh-uh--------Uh-uh, Uh-uh, Uh-uh--------Look down, look down Don't look 'em in the eye
Look down, look down, You're here until you die
The sun is strong It's hot as hell below
Look down, look down, There's twenty years to go
I've done no wrong! Sweet Jesus hear my prayer!
Look down, look down, Sweet Jesus doesn't care
I know she'll wait, I know that she'll be true!
Look down, look down, They've all forgotten you
When I get free ya won't see me Here for dust!
Look down, look down Don't look 'em in the eye
How long O Lord Before you let me die?
Look down, look down, You'll always be a slave
Look down, look down, You're standing in your grave
The Poor
At the end of the day you're another day older
And that's all you can say for the life of the poor
It's a struggle, it's a war
And there's nothing that anyone's giving
One more day, standing about, what is it for?
One day less to be living.
At the end of the day you're another day colder
And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill
And the righteous hurry past
They don't hear the little ones crying
And the winter is coming on fast, ready to kill
One day nearer to dying!
At the end of the day there's another day dawning
And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise
Like the waves crash on the sand
Like a storm that'll break any second
There's a hunger in the land
There's a reckoning still to be reckoned
And there's gonna be hell to pay
At the end of the day!
Thenardier
Welcome, M'sieur Sit yourself down
And meet the best Innkeeper in town
As for the rest All of 'em crooks
solo?
2 lines could be Mme T
Rooking their guests And cooking the books
Seldom do you see Honest men like me
A gent of good intent Who's content to be
Master of the house Doling out the charm
Ready with a handshake And an open palm
Tells a saucy tale Makes a little stir
Customers appreciate a bon-viveur
Glad to do a friend a favour Doesn't cost me to be nice
But nothing gets you nothing Everything has got a little price!
Thenardier & Drinkers
Master of the house Quick to catch yer eye
Never wants a passerby To pass him by
Servant to the poor Butler to the great
Comforter, philosopher, And lifelong mate!
Everybody's boon companion Everybody's chaperone
Thenardier
But lock up your valises Jesus! Won't I skin you to the bone!
Javert
There, out in the darkness A fugitive running Fallen from God
Fallen from grace God be my witness I never shall yield
Till we come face to face Till we come face to face
He knows his way in the dark
But mine is the way of the Lord
And those who follow the path of the righteous Shall have their
reward
And if they fall As Lucifer fell The flame The sword!

Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart Echos the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes!

Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?

Own my own Pretending he's beside me
All alone I walk with him till morning
Without him I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me
I love him I love him I love him
But only on my own.
Feuilly
Drink with me To days gone by
Sing with me The songs we knew
Prouvaire
Here's to pretty girls who went to our heads
Joly

Grantaire
Drink with me to days gone by
Can it be you fear to die?
Will the world remember you when you fall?
Could it be your death means nothing at all?
Is your life just one more lie?
Valjean
God on high Hear my prayer
In my need You have always been there
He is young He's afraid
Let him rest Heaven blessed.
Bring him home Bring him home
Bring him home. Bring him home
Bring him home Bring him home.
Chorus
Do you hear the people sing Lost in the valley of the night
It is the music of a people Who are climbing to the light
For the wretched of the earth There is a flame that never dies
Even the darkest night will end And the sun will rise.
They will live again in freedom In the garden of the Lord
They will walk behind the plough-share They will put away the sword
The chain will be broken And all men will have their reward!
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing Say, do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that they bring When tomorrow comes!
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing Say, do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that they bring When tomorrow comes!
Tomorrow comes!
Tomorrow comes!
