les misérables - the confrontation
JAVERT
Valjean, at last,
We see each other plain
`M?sieur le Mayor,?
You?ll wear a different chain!
VALJEAN
Before you say another word, Javert
Before you chain me up like a slave again
Listen to me! There is something I must do.
This woman leaves behind a suffering child.
There is none but me who can intercede,
In Mercy?s name, three days are all I need.
Then I?ll return, I pledge my word.
Then I?ll return...
JAVERT
You must think me mad!
I?ve hunted you across the years
A man like you can never change
A man such as you.
VALJEAN(in counterpoint)
Believe of me what you will
There is a duty that I?m sworn to do
You know nothing of my life
All I did was steal some bread
You know nothing of the world
You would sooner see me dead
But not before I see this justice
done
I am warning you Javert
I?m a stronger man by far
There is power in me yet
My race is not yet run
I am warning you Javert
There is nothing I won?t dare
If I have to kill you here
I?ll do what must be done!
JAVERT(in counterpoint)
Men like me can never change
Men like you can never change
No,
24601
My duty?s to the law - you have no Rights
Come with me 24601
Now the wheel has turned around
Jean Valjean is nothing now
Dare you talk to me of crime
And the price you had to pay
Every man is born in sin
Every man must choose his way
You know nothing of Javert
I was born inside a jail
I was born with scum like you
I am from the gutter too!
(Valjean breaks a chair and threatens Javert with the broken piece. Turns to Fantine)
VALJEAN
(to Fantine) And this I swear to you tonight
JAVERT
(to Valjean) There is no place for you to hide
VALJEAN
Your child will live within my care
JAVERT
Wherever you may hide away
VALJEAN
And I will raise her to the light.
VALJEAN AND JAVERT
I swear to you, I will be there!
(They fight, Javert is knocked out. Valjean escapes)
les misérables - do you hear the people sing
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men?
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again.
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
there is a life about to start when tomorrow comes.
Will you join in our crusade who will be strong and stand withme?
Beyond the barricades in there a world you long to see?
then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free.
Do you hear the people sing...
Will you give all you can give so that our banner may advance?
Some will fall and some will live,
will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of france
les misérables - epilogue
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!
les misérables - i dreamed a dream
There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting.
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting.
There was a time ... then it all went wrong
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hopes were high and life worth living,
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving.
The I was young and unafraid,
When dreams were made and used and wasted.
There was no ransom to be payed,
No song unsung, no wine untasted.
But the tigers come at night,
With their voices soft as thunder,
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dreams to shame
He slept a summer by my side.
He filled my days with endless wonder,
He took my childhood in his stride,
But he was gone when autumn came.
And still I dreamed he'd come to me
And we would live the years together,
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather.
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream
I dreamed.
les misérables - a heart full of love
MARIUS:
A heart full of love
A heart full of song
I'm doing everything all wrong
Oh God, for shame
I do not even know your name
Dear mademoiselle
Won't you say?
Will you tell?
COSETTE:
A heart full of love
No fear, no regret
MARIUS:
My name is Marius Pontmercy
COSETTE:
And mine's Cosette
MARIUS:
Cosette, I don't know what to say
COSETTE:
Then make no sound
MARIUS:
I am lost
COSETTE:
I am found
MARIUS:
A heart full of light
MARIUS & COSETTE:
A night bright as day
MARIUS:
And you must never go away
Cosette, Cosette
COSETTE:
This is a chain we'll never break
MARIUS:
Do I dream?
COSETTE:
I'm awake
MARIUS: EPONINE:
A heart full of love He was never mine tolose
MARIUS & COSETTE:
A heart full of you
MARIUS: EPONINE:
A single look and then I knew Why regret what could notbe?
COSETTE:
I knew it, too
EPONINE:
These are words he'll never say
Not to me
MARIUS: EPONINE:
From today
Not to me,
COSETTE: Not for me
Ev'ry day
MARIUS & COSETTE: EPONINE:
His heart
For it isn't a dream Full of love
Not a dream after all He will never feelthis way
les misérables - what have i done
What have I done, sweet Jesus, what have I done
Become a thief in the night, become a dog on the run,
Have I fallen so far, while is the hour so late,
That nothing remains but the cry of my hate,
That cries in the dark, that nobody hears,
Here where I stand at the turning of the years.
If there is another way to go,
I risked it twenty long years ago,
My life was a war that could never be won,
They gave me a number and murded Valjean,
Where they chained me and let me for dead,
Just for stealing a mouth full of bread.
Yet why did I allow that man,
To touch my sould and teach me love,
He treated me like any other,
He gave me his trust,
He called me ?brother?.
My life he claims for God above,
Can such things be?
For I had come to hate the world,
This world that always hated me.
Take an eye for an eye,
Turn your heart into stone,
This is all I have lived for,
This is all I have known.
One life from him, and I?ld be back,
Beneath the lash upon the rack.
Instead he offers me my freedom,
I feel my shame inside me like a knife,
He told me that I had a soul.
How does he know?
What spirit comes to move my life,
Is there another way to go.
I am reaching, but I fall,
And the night is closing in,
And I stare into the voide,
To the whirpool of my sin,
I?ll escape now from the world,
From the world of Jean Valjean,
Jean Valjean is nothing now,
Another story must begin!
les misérables - a little fall of rain
Eponine: Don't you fret
M'sieur Marius
I don't feel any pain
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now
You're here
Thats all i need to know
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
And rain will make the flowers grow
Marius: But you will live, 'Ponine; dear God above
If i could close your wounds with words of love
Eponine: Just hold me now and let it be
Shelter me
Comfort me
Marius: You would live a hundred years
If i could show you how
I won't desert you now
Eponine: The rain can't hurt me now
This rain will wash away what's past
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
I'll sleep in your embrace at last
The rain that brings you here
is heaven blessed
The skies begin to clear
And i'm at rest
A breath away from where you are
I've come home from so far
Eponine: Marius:
So don't you fret Hush a bye
M'sieur Marius Dear Eponine
I don't feel any pain You won't feel anypain

Eponine: Will make the flowers
Marius: Will make the flowers....... grow
les misérables - who am i
He thinks that man is me,
he knew him at a glance.
The stranger he has found,
This man could be my chance.
Why should i save his hide?
Why should i right his wrong?
When i have come so far,
And struggled for so long.
If I speak, i am condemned,
If i stay silent i am damned.
who am i, can i condemn this man to slavery
pretend i do not feel his agony
this innocent who wears my face
who goes to judgement in my place
who am i?
can i conceal myself forever more
pretend i'm not the man i was before?
and must my name until i die,
be no more than an alibi,
must i lie?
how can i ever face my fellow men
how can i ever face, my self again
my soul belongs to God i know,
i made that bargain long ago
he gave me hope when hope was gone
he gave me strength to carry on
who am i, i'm jeanvaljean
who am i, 24601!
les misérables - come to me
les misérables - finale 2
les misérables - master of the house
Drinkers
Come on you old pest
Fetch a bottle of your best
What's the nectar of the day?
[Thenardier enters with a flask of wine.]
Thenardier
Here, try this lot
Guaranteed to hit the spot
Or I'm not Thenardier
Drinkers
Gissa glass a' rum
Landlord, over here!
Thenardier
[To himself] Right away, you scum
[To customer] Right away, M'sieur
Drinkers
God this place has gone to hell
So you tell me every year
Mine host Thenardier
He was there so they say,
At the field of Waterloo
Got there, it's true
When the fight was all through
But he knew just what to do
Crawling through the mud
So I've heard it said
Picking through the pockets
Of the English dead
He made a tidy score
From the spoils of war
Thenardier
My band of soaks
My den of dissolutes
My dirty jokes, my always pissed as newts.
My sons of whores
Spent their lives in my inn
Homing pigeons homing in
Then fly through my doors
And their money's as good as yours
Drinkers
Ain't got a clue
What he put in this stew
Must have scraped it off the street
God what a wine!
Chateau Neuf de Turpentine
Must have pressed it with his feet
Landlord over here!
Where's the bloody man?
One more for the road!
Thenardier, one more slug o' gin.
Just one more, or my old man is gonna do me in.
[Thenardier greets a new customer.]
Thenardier
Welcome, M'sieur
Sit yourself down
And meet the best
Innkeeper in town
As for the rest
All of 'em crooks
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 favor
Doesn't cost me to be nice
But nothing gets you nothing
Everything has got a little price!
Master of the house
Keeper of the zoo
Ready to relieve 'em
Of a sou or two
Watering the wine
Making up the weight
Pickin' up their knick-knacks
When they can't see straight
Everybody loves a landlord
Everybody's buxom friend
I do whatever pleases
Jesus! Won't I bleed 'em in the end!
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!
[To another new customer...]
Enter M'sieur
Lay down your load
Unlace your boots
And rest from the road
This weighs a ton
Travel's a curse
But here we strive
To lighten your purse
Here the goose is cooked
Here the fat is fried
And nothing's overlooked
Till I'm satisfied
Food beyond compare
Food beyond belief
Mix it in a mincer
And pretend it's beef
Kidney of a horse
Liver of a cat
Filling up the sausages
With this and that
Residents are more than welcome
Bridal suite is occupied
Reasonable charges
Plus some little extras on the side!
Charge 'em for the lice
Extra for the mice
Two percent for looking in the mirror twice
Here a little slice
There a little cut
Three percent for sleeping with the window shut
When it comes to fixing prices
There are a lot of tricks he knows
How it all increases
All those bits and pieces
Jesus! It's amazing how it grows!
Thenardier & Chorus
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
Gives 'em everything he's got
Thenardier
Dirty bunch of geezers
Jesus! What a sorry little lot!
Mme. Thenardier
I used to dream
That I would meet a prince
But God Almighty,
Have you seen what's happened since?
Master of the house?
Isn't worth me spit!
`Comforter, philosopher'
- and lifelong shit!
Cunning little brain
Regular Voltaire
Thinks he's quite a lover
But there's not much there
What a cruel trick of nature
Landed me with such a louse
God knows how I've lasted
Living with this bastard in the house!
Thenardier & Drinkers
Master of the house!
Mme. Thenardier
Master and a half!
Thenardier & Drinkers
Comforter, philosopher
Mme. Thenardier
Ah, don't make me laugh!
Thenardier & Drinkers
Servant to the poor
Butler to the great
Mme. Thenardier
Hypocrite and toady
And inebriate!
Thenardier & Drinkers
Everybody bless the landlord!
Everybody bless his spouse!
Thenardier
Everybody raise a glass
Mme. Thenardier
Raise it up the master's arse
All
Everybody raise a glass to the master of the house!
les misérables - lovely ladies
(The docks. Sailors, whores and their customers, pimps, etc. Fantine wanders in)
SAILOR ONE
I smell women
Smell ?em in the air
Think I?ll drop my anchor
In that harbor over there
SAILOR TWO
Lovely ladies
Smell ?em through the smoke
Seven days at sea
Can make you hungry for a poke
SAILOR THREE
Even stokers need a little stoke!
WOMEN
Lovely ladies
Waiting for a bite
Waiting for the customers
Who only come at night
Lovely ladies
Ready for the call
Standing up or lying down
Or any way at all
Bargain prices up against the wall
OLD WOMAN
Come here, my dear
Let?s see this trinket you wear
This bagatelle...
FANTINE
Madame, I?ll sell it to you...
OLD WOMAN
I?ll give you four
FANTINE
That wouldn?t pay for the chain!
OLD WOMAN
I?ll give you five. You?re far to eager to sell.
It?s up to you.
FANTINE
It?s all I have
OLD WOMAN
That?s not my fault
FANTINE
OLD WOMAN
No more than five
My dear, we all must stay alive!
WOMEN
Lovely ladies
Waiting in the dark
Ready for a thick one
Or a quick one in the park
Whore 1
Long time short time
Any time, my dear
Cost a little extra if you want to take all year!
ALL
Quick and cheap is underneath the pier!
CRONE
What pretty hair!
What pretty locks you got there
What luck you got. It?s worth a centime, my dear
I?ll take the lot
FANTINE
Don?t touch me! Leave me alone!
CRONE
Let?s make a price.
I?ll give you all of ten francs,
Just think of that!
FANTINE
It pays a debt
CRONE
Just think of that
FANTINE
What can I do? It pays a debt.
Ten francs may save my poor Cosette!
SAILOR THREE
Lovely lady!
Fastest on the street
Wasn?t there three minutes
She was back up on her feet
SAILOR ONE
Lovely lady!
What yer waiting for?
Doesn?t take a lot of savvy
Just to be a whore
Come on, lady
What?s a lady for?
(Fantine re-emerges, her long hair cut short)
PIMP
Give me the dirt, who?s that bit over there?
WHORE ONE
A bit of skirt. She?s the one sold her hair.
WHORE TWO
She?s got a kid. Sends her all that she can
PIMP
I might have known
There is always some man
Lovely lady, come along and join us!
Lovely lady!
WHORE ONE

You?re no grander than the rest of us
Life has dropped you at the bottom of the heap
Join your sisters
WHORE TWO
Make money in your sleep!
(Fantine goes off with one of the sailors)
WHORE ONE
That?s right dearie, let him have the lot
WHORE THREE
That?s right dearie, show him what you?ve got!
WOMEN
Old men, young men, take ?em as they come
Harbor rats and alley cats and every kind of scum
Poor men, rich men, leaders of the land
See them with their trousers off they?re never quite as grand
All it takes is money in your hand!
Lovely ladies
Going for a song
Got a lot of callers
But they never stay for long
FANTINE
Come on, Captain,
you can wear your shoes
Don?t it make a change
To have a girl who can?t refuse
Easy money
Lying on a bed
Just as well they never see
The hate that?s in your head
Don?t they know they?re making love
To one already dead!

les misérables - javert s suicide
(Javert walks the deserted streets until he comes to a bridge over the river Seine)
JAVERT
Who is this man?
What sort of devil is he
To have me caught in a trap
And choose to let me go free?
It was his hour at last
To put a seal on my fate
Wipe out the past
And wash me clean off the slate!
All it would take
Was a flick of his knife.
Vengeance was his
And he gave me back my life!
Damned if I?ll live in the debt of a thief!
Damned if I?ll yield at the end of the chase.
I am the Law and the Law is not mocked
I?ll spit his pity right back in his face
There is nothing on earth that we share
It is either Valjean or Javert!
How can I now allow this man
To hold dominion over me?
This desperate man whom I have hunted
He gave me my life. He gave me freedom.
I should have perished by his hand
It was his right.
It was my right to die as well
Instead I live... but live in hell.
And my thoughts fly apart
Can this man be believed?
Shall his sins be forgiven?
Shall his crimes be reprieved?
And must I now begin to doubt,
Who never doubted all these years?
My heart is stone and still it trembles
The world I have known is lost in shadow.
Is he from heaven or from hell?
And does he know
That granting me my life today
This man has killed me even so?
I am reaching, but I fall
And the stars are black and cold
As I stare into the void
Of a world that cannot hold
I?ll escape now from the world
From the world of Jean Valjean.
There is nowhere I can turn
There is no way to go on....
(He throws himself into the swollen river)
les misérables - on my own
And now I'm all alone again
Nowhere to turn, no one to go to
Without a home, without a friend, without a face to say helloto
But now the night is near
And I can make-believe he's here
Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head
On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him 'til morning
Without him, I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way, I close my eyes and he has found me
In the rain
The pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever
And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say there's a way for us
I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him, the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full ofstrangers
I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life I've only been pretending
Without me, his world will go on turning
A world that's full of happiness that I have never known
I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own
