• Do You Hear the People Sing/Look Down (Gavroche)

GAVROCHE
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
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

BEGGARS
Look down and see the beggars at your feet
Look down and show some mercy if you can
Look down and see the sweepings of the streets
Look down, look down, upon your fellow man!

GAVROCHE
How do you do? My name's Gavroche
These are my people, here's my patch
Not much to look at, nothing posh
Nothing that you'd call up to scratch
This is my school, my high society
Here in the slums of Saint Michele
We live on crumbs of humble piety
Tough on the teeth, but what the hell!
Think you're poor?
Think you're free?
Follow me, follow me!

BEGGARS
Look down, and show some mercy if you can!
Look down, look down, upon your fellow man!

GAVROCHE
There was a time we killed the King
We tried to change the world to fast.
Now we have got another King,
He is no better than the last.
This is the land that fought for liberty-
Now when we fight we fight for bread!
Here is the thing about equality-
Everyone’s equal when they’re dead.
Take your place!
Take your chance!
Vive la France! Vive la France!

BEGGARS
Look down, and show some mercy if you can!
Look down, look down, upon your fellow man!

BEGGARS
When's it gonna end?
When we gonna live?
Something's gotta happen now or
Something's gonna give...
It'll come, it'll come, it'll come
It'll come, it'll come, it'll come

ENJOLRAS
Where the leaders of the land?
Where is the King who runs this show?

MARIUS
Only one man - general Lamarque
Speaks for the people here below
Lamarque is I'll and fading fast!
Won't last the week out so they say.

BEGGARS
With all the anger in the land
How long before the judgement day?
Before we cut the fat ones down to size?
Before the barricades arise?
Vive la France! Vive la France!
