Prologue: Work Song

[00:40.55] Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[00:45.81] Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[00:52.63] Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[00:58.91] Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[01:04.97] Look down! Look down!
[01:07.99] Don't look 'em in the eye
[01:10.89] Look down, look down
[01:13.89] You're here until you die
[01:16.82] The sun is strong
[01:19.83] It's hot as hell below
[01:22.78] Look down! Look down!
[01:25.65] There's 20 years to go
[01:28.64] I've done no wrong
[01:31.40] Sweet Jesus, here my prayer
[01:34.49] Look down! Look down!
[01:37.12] Sweet Jesus doesn't care
[01:40.28] I know she'll wait
[01:43.15] I know that she'll be true
[01:46.02] Look down! Look down!
[01:48.91] They've all forgotten you
[01:52.22] When I get free you won't see me
[01:54.99] Here for dust
[01:57.67] Look down! Look down!
[02:00.55] Don't look 'em in the eye
[02:03.44] How long, dear lord
[02:06.31] Before you let me die?
[02:09.36] Look down! Look down!
[02:12.00] You'll always be a slave
[02:15.08] Look down! Look down!
[02:17.86] You're standing in your grave
[02:21.08] Now bring me prisoner 24601
[02:23.74] Your time is up
[02:24.98] And your parole's begun
[02:26.73] You know what that means
[02:28.16] Yes, it means I'm free
[02:31.66] No! It means you get
[02:33.61] Your yellow ticket of leave
[02:35.35] You are a thief
[02:36.46] I stole a loaf of bread
[02:37.83] You robbed a house
[02:39.58] I broke a window pane
[02:44.14] My sisters child was close to death
[02:47.19] And we were starving
[02:48.62] You will starve again
[02:49.64] Unless you learn the meaning of the law
[02:52.58] I know the meaning of those 19 years
[02:56.25] A slave of the law
[03:01.53] Five years for what you did
[03:04.33] The rest because you tried to run
[03:06.68] Yes, 24601
[03:08.15] My name is Jean Valjean
[03:11.55] And I am Javert
[03:14.27] Do not forget my name
[03:17.02] Do not forget me
[03:18.71] 24601
[03:23.06]
