Les Miserables - The Beggers Lyrics
Beggers:Look down and see the beggers at your feetLook down and show some mercy if you canLook down and see the sweepings of the streetLook down, look down, upon your fello manGavroche: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 scratchThis is my school my high societyHere in the slums of Sam MichelleWe live off crums of Humble PieotyTough on the teeth but what the hell!Think your poor? Think your free?Follow me! Follow me!Beggers:Look down and show some mercy if you canLook down Look down, upon your fellow manEnjolras:Where are the leaders of the land?Where are the swells who run the show?Marius:Only one man and that's LemarkSpeaks for the people here to goBeggers:See our children fedHelp us in our shameSomething for a crust of bread in Holy Jesus NameIn the Lord's Holy NameIn His NameIn His NameIn His NameMarius:Won't last a week out so they say!Enjolras:With all the anger in the landHow long before the judgment day?Before we cut the fathones down to sizeBefore the baricades ariseGavroche:Watch out for ol' ThenardierAll of his family's on the make!Once ran a hesh house down the wayBit of a swine and no mistake!He's got the gang the bleeding lay-aboutEven his daughter does her shareThat's Eponine she knows her way aboutOnly a kid but hard to scareDo we care? Not a cuss!Long live us, Long live us!Beggers:Look down and show some mercy if you canLook down, look down, upon your fellow man.
