Prologue
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, ya 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; Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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.
You'll starve again; unless you learn the meaning of the law. I know the meaning of those 19 years; a slave of the law.
5 years for what you did; the rest because you tried to run; Yes, 24601 ...
My name is Jean Valjean!
And I'm Javert. Do not forget my name; do not forget me, 24601.
Look down, look down; You'll always be a slave. Look down, look down; You're standing in your grave.
