Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look down, look down
Don't look 'em in the eye
Look down, look down
You're here until you die
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Follow to the letter your itinerary
This badge of shame you'll show until you die
It warns you're a dangerous man
I stole a loaf of bread
[Verse 4]
My sister's child was close to death
We were starving, you will starve again
Unless you learn the meaning of the law
I know the meaning of those nineteen years
A slave of the law
[Verse 5]
Five years for what you did
The rest because you tried to run
Yes, 24601
My name is Jean Valjean
[Verse 6]
And I am Javert
Do not forget my name
Do not forget me
24601
[Verse 7]
Look down, look down
You'll always be a slave
Look down, look down
You're standing in your grave
[Verse 8]
Freedom at last
How strange it is
Never forget the years
The waste
[Verse 9]
Nor forgive them
For what they've done
They are the guilty
Every one
[Verse 10]
The day begins
And now let's see
What this new world
Will do for me
