Overture / Work Song - Terrence Mann/Linda Eder and Colm Wilkinson

Written by：Jean-Marc Natel/Claude-Michel Schönberg/Herbert Kretzmer/Alain Boublil

Look down look down

Don't look 'em in the eye

Look down look down

You're here until you die

The sun is strong

It's hot as hell below

Look down look down

There's twenty years to go

I've done no wrong

Sweet Jesus hear my prayer

Look down look down

Sweet Jesus doesn't care

I know she'll wait

I know that she'll be true

Look down look down

They've all forgotten you

When I get free you won't see me

Here for dust

Look down look down

Don't look 'em in the eye

How long O Lord

Before you let me die

Look down look down

You'll always be a slave

Look down look down

You're standing in your grave

Now bring me prisoner 24601

Your time is up

And your parole's begun

You know what that means

Yes it means I'm free

NO

It means you get

Your yellow ticket-of-leave

You are a thief

I stole a loaf of bread

You robbed a house

I broke a window pane

My sister's child was close to death

And we were starving

And you will starve again

Unless you learn the meaning of the law

I know the meaning of those 19 years

A slave of the law

Five years for what you did

The rest because you tried to run

Yes 24601

My name is Jean Valjean

And I am Javert

Do not forget my name

Do not forget me

24601
