The Robbery Lyrics - Les Miserables Live - Les Miserables

[Thenardier assembling his gang.] 

Thenardier 

Everyone here, you know your place 

Brujon, Babet, Claqusous 

You, Montparnasse, watch for the law 

With Eponine, take care. 

You turn on the tears 

No mistakes, my dears 

Mme. Thenardier 

These bloody students on our street 

Here they come slumming once again 

Our Eponine would kiss their feet 

She never had a scrap of brain 

Marius 

Eponine, what's up today? 

I haven't seen you much about. 

Eponine 

Here, you can always catch me in. 

Marius 

Mind the police don't catch you out! 

Eponine 

Here, whatcher doing with all them books? 

I could have been a student too! 

Don't judge a girl on how she looks... 

I know a lot of things I do! 

Marius 

Poor Eponine, the things you know 

You wouldn't find in books like these. 

Eponine 

I like the way you grow your hair 

Marius 

I like the way you always tease 

Eponine 

Little he knows! 

Little he sees! 

[Valjean arrives with Cosette, now grown up.] 

Mme. Thenardier 

Here's the old boy. Stay on the job and watch out for 

the law. 

Eponine 

[to Marius] Stay out of this. 

Marius 

But Eponine... 

Eponine 

You'll be in trouble here 

It's not your concern 

You'll be in the clear 

[She pushes Marius away.] 

Marius 

Who is that man? 

Eponine 

Leave me alone! 

Marius 

Why is he here? Hey, Eponine! 

[He begins to follow her, and bumps into Cosette.] 

I didn't see you there, forgive me. 

Thenardier 

Please M'sieur, come this way 

Here's a child that ain't eaten today. 

Save a life, spare a sou 

God rewards all the good that you do. 

Wait a bit. Know that face. 

Ain't the world a remarkable place? 

Men like me don't forget 

You're the bastard that borrowed Cosette! 

[Thenardier grabs Valjean and rips open his shirt, revealing the number on his chest.] 

Valjean 

What is this? Are you mad? 

No, Monsieur, you don't know what you do! 

Thenardier 

You know me, you know me. 

I'm a con, just like you. 

Eponine 

It's the police! Disappear! 

Run for it! It's Javert!
