Beggars at the Feast (Live)

Thenardier
Ain't it a laugh
Ain't it a treat
Hob nobbin' here
Among the elite
Here comes a prince
There goes a Jew
This one's a queer
But what can you do
Paris at my feet
Paris in the dust
And here I'm breaking bread
With the upper crust
Beggar at the feast
Master of the dance
Life is easy pickings
If you grab your chance
Everywhere you go
Law abiding folk
Doing what is decent
But they're mostly broke
Singing to the Lord on Sundays
Praying for the gifts He'll send
M and Mme Thenardier
But we're the ones who take it
We're the ones who make it in the end
Watch the buggers dance
Watch 'em till they drop
Keep your wits about you
And you stand on top
Masters of the land
Always get our share
Clear away the barricades
And we're still there
We know where the wind is blowing
Money is the stuff we smell
And when we're rich as Croesus
Jesus Won't we see you all in hell
Valjean
Alone I wait in the shadows
I count the hours till I can sleep
I dreamed a dream Cosette stood by
It made her weep to know I die
Alone at the end of the day
Upon this wedding night I pray
Take these children my Lord to thy embrace
And show them grace
God on high
Hear my prayer
Take me now
To thy care
Where You are
Let me be
Take me now
Take me there
Bring me home
Bring me home
Fantine
M'sieur I bless your name
M'sieur lay down your burden
You raised my child in love
And you will be with god
Valjean interjecting
I am ready Fantine
At the end of my days
She's the best of my life
Cosette
Papa papa I do not understand
Are you alright They said you'd gone away
Valjean
Cosette my child am I forgiven now
Thank God thank God I've lived to see this day
Marius
It's you who must forgive a thoughtless fool
It's you who must forgive a thankless man
It's thanks to you that I am living
And again I lay down my life at your feet
Cosette your father is a saint
When they wounded me
He took me from the barricade
Carried like a babe
And brought me home to you
Valjean to Cosette
Now you are here
Again beside me
Now I can die in peace
For now my life is blessed
Cosette
You will live Papa you're going to live
It's too soon too soon to say goodbye
Valjean
Yes Cosette forbid me now to die
I'll obey
I will try
On this page
I write my last confession
Read it well
When I at last am sleeping
It's a story
Of those who always loved you
Your mother gave her life for you
Then gave you to my keeping
Fantine
Come with me
Where chains will never bind you
All your grief
At last at last behind you
Lord in Heaven
Look down on him in mercy
Valjean
Forgive me all my trespasses
And take me to your glory
Valjean Fantine and Eponine
Take my hand
And lead me to salvation
Take my love
For love is everlasting
And remember
The truth that once was spoken
To love another person
Is to see the face of God
