Lyrics

Here's a hint of gold Stuck into a tooth Pardon me, Monsieur You won't be needing this no more Shouldn't be too hard to sell Add it to the pile Add it to the stock Here among the sewer rats A breath away from Hell You get accustomed to the smell Well someone's got to clean them up, my friends Bodies on the highway Law and order upside down Someone's got to collect their odds and ends As a service to the town! Here's a tasty ring Pretty little thing Wouldn't want to waste it That would really be a crime Thank you sir, I'm in your debt Here's another toy Take it off the boy His heart's no longer going And he's lived his little time But his watch is ticking yet! Well someone's got to clean them up, my friends Before the little harvest Disappears into the mud Someone's got to collect their odds and ends When the gutters run with blood It's a world where the dogs eat the dogs Where they kill for the bones in the street And God in His Heaven He don't interfere Because he's dead as the stiff at my feet I raise my eyes to see the heavens And only the moon looks down The harvest moon shines down! It's you Javert! I knew you wouldn't wait too long The faithful servant at his post once more! This man's done no wrong And he needs a doctor's care I warned you I would not give in I won't be swayed Another hour yet And then I'm yours And all our debts are paid The man of mercy Comes again And talks of justice Come, time is running short Look down, Javert He's standing in his grave Give way, Javert There is life to save Take him, Valjean Before I change my mind I will be waiting 24601
