Ring out the bells upon this day of days
May all the angels of the Lord above
In jubilation sing their songs of praise
And crown this blessed time with peace and love.
The Baron and Baroness de Thenard
wish to pay their respects to the groom!
I forget where we met,
was it not at the Chateau Lafarge?
Where the duke did that puke down
the Duchess's decolletage?
No, 'Baron de Thenard',
the circles I move in are humbler by far
Go away, Thenardier,
do you think I don't know who you are?
He's not fooled, told you so
Show M’sieur what you've come here to show
Tell the boy what you know!
Pity to disturb you at a feast like this
But five hundred francs surely wouldn’t come amiss
In God's name say what you have to say
But first you pay!
What I saw, clear as light,
Jean Valjean in the sewers that night
Had this corpse on his back,
hanging there like a great bloody sack
I was there, never fear,
even found me this fine souvenir!
I know this, this was mine!
Surely this is some heavenly sign!
One thing more, mark this well
It was the night the barricades fell
Then it's true, then I'm right
Jean Valjean was my saviour that night!
As for you, take this too!
God forgive the things that we do
Come my love, come Cosette
This day's blessings are not over yet!
