The Robbery - Sasha Baron Cohen, Helena Bonham Carter, Hugh Jackman

Eponine!

(sung)

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

Please M’sieur, come this way

Here’s a child that ain’t eaten today

Save a life, spare a soul

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 Colette

Cosette!

What is this?

Are you mad?

No, Monsieur, you don’t know what you say

You know me, I know you!

Can you pay what we’re due

And you better dig deep!

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

M’sieur, the streets are not safe

But let these vermin 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, M’sieur

We’ll see him suitably paid

But where’s the gentleman gone

And why on earth did 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 he stole from me

Yeah and me!

Yeah both of us

Could it be he’s that old jailbird

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 who 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!
