paroles de chanson Look Down - Les Misérables - Original London Cast

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!

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!

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

As for the leaders of the land?
As for the swells who run this show?

Only one man - and that's Lamarque
Speaks for these people here below

Lamarque is ill and fading fast!
Won't last the week out so they say

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?

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