leo burmester & jennifer butt - wedding chorale / beggars at the feast lyrics
[marius and cosette lead a wedding procession.]
[guests]
ring out the bells upon this day of days
may all the angels of the lord above
in jubilation (in)
sing their songs of praise (jubilation, sing their songs of praise)
and crown this
blessed time with peace and love (and crown this blessed time)
(with peace and love)
[the procession becomes a dancing celebration. a waltz is played.]
[major domo, spoken]
the baron and baroness de thénard
wish to pay their respects to the groom
[thénardier]
ain’t it a laugh?
ain’t it a treat?
hob_n0bbing here amongst the elite?
here comes a prince
there goes a jеw
this one’s a queer, but what can you do?
paris at my feet
paris in the dust
and herе’s me breaking bread with the upper crust
beggar at the feast
master of the dance
life is easy pickings if you grab your chance
everywhere you go
law_abiding folk
doing what is decent, but they’re mostly broke
singing to the lord on sundays
praying for the gifts he’ll send
[thénardier & madame thénardier]
but we’re the ones who take it
we’re the ones who make it in the end
watch the b_gg_rs dance
watch ’em till they drop
keep your wits about you and you stand on top
masters of the land
always get our share
clear away the barricades and we’re still there!
we know where the wind is blowing
money is the stuff we smell
and when we’re rich as croesus
jesus! won’t we see you all in h_ll!
