Ruthie Henshall - Fantine's Arrest lyrics

[BAMATABOIS] Here's something new, I think I'll give it a try Come closer, you. I like to see what I buy The usual price for just one slice of your pie [FANTINE] I don't want you. No, no, Monsieur, let me go [BAMATABOIS] Is this a trick? I won't pay more [FANTINE] No, not at all [BAMATABOIS] You've got some nerve, you little who*e You've got some gall It's the same with a tart as it is with a grocer The customer sees what he gets in advance It's not for the who*e to say "yes sir" or "no sir" Not for the harlot to pick or to choose Or to lead me a dance [FANTINE (striking Bamatabois)] I'll k** you you ba*tard, try any of that Even a who*e who has gone to the bad Won't be had by a rat [BAMATABOIS] By Christ, you'll pay for what you've done This rat will make you bleed you'll see I guarantee, I'll make you suffer For this disturbance of the peace For this insult to life and property [FANTINE] I beg you, don't report me sir I'll do what ever you may want [BAMATABOIS] Make your excuse to the police [JAVERT] Tell me quickly what's the story Who saw what and why and where Let him give a full description Let him answer to Javert In this nest of who*es and vipers Let one speak who saw it all Who laid hands on this good man here What's the substance of this brawl [BAMATABOIS] Javert, would you believe it I was crossing from the park When this prostitute attacked me You can see she left her mark [JAVERT] She will answer for her actions When you make a full report You may rest a**ured, Monsieur That she will answer to the court [FANTINE] There's a child who sorely needs me Please Monsieur, she's but that high Holy God, is there no mercy? If I go to jail, she'll die [JAVERT] I have heard such protestation Every day for twenty years Lets have no more explanations Save your breath and save your tears Honest work, just reward That's the way to please the Lord [VALJEAN] A moment of your time, Javert I do believe this woman's tale [JAVERT] But Monsieur Mayor— [VALJEAN] You've done your duty, let her be She needs a doctor, not a jail [JAVERT] But Monsieur Mayor! [FANTINE] Can this be? [VALJEAN] Where will she end This child without a friend? I've seen your face before Show me some way to help you How have you come to grief In such a place as this? [FANTINE] Monsieur, don't mock me now, I pray It's hard enough I've lost my pride You let your foreman send me away Yes, you were there, and turned aside [FANTINE] I never did no wrong My daughter's close to dying If there's a God above He'd let me die instead [VALJEAN] Is it true, what I've done To an innocent soul? Had I only known then... [VALJEAN] In his name, my task has just begun I will see it done [JAVERT] But Monsieur Mayor! [VALJEAN] I will see it done [JAVERT] But Monsieur Mayor! [VALJEAN] I will see it done [VOICE (spoken)] Look out, it's a runaway cart!
