The Robbery

Текст песни Sasha Baron Cohen - The Robbery

Eponine
Everyone here
You know your place
Brujon, Babet, Claquesous
You, Montparnasse
Watch for the law with Eponine
Take care
You turn on the tears
No mistakes, my dears
Please Monsieur
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 Collette
Cosette
Whatever

What is this?
Are you mad?
No monsieur you don't know what you say
You know me, I know you
And you'll pay what we're due
And you better dig deep
'Cos she doesn't come cheap
Brujon
It's the police, disappear
Run for it
It's Javert

Another brawl in the square
Another stink in the air
Was there a witness to this?
Well let him speak to Javert
Monsieur these streets are not safe
But let these foul men beware
We'll see that justice is done
Look upon this fine collection
Crawled from underneath a stone
This swarm of worms and maggots
Could have picked you to the bone
I know this man over here
I know his name and his trade
And on your witness Monsieur
I'll see him suitably paid

But where's the gentleman gone?
And why on earth would he run?

You will have a job to find him
He's not all he seems to be
And that girl who trails behind him
Is the child stole from me
And me
Yeah both of us

Could it be he's that old jail bird
That the tide now washes in?
Heard my name and started running?
All the omens point to him

In the absence of a victim
Dear Inspector, may I go?
And remember
When you've nicked him
It was me what told you so

Let the old man keep on running
I will run him off his feet
Everyone about your business
Clear this garbage off the street
