Wedding Chorale / Beggars at the Feast Original London Cast of Les Misérables (Ft. Alun Armstrong & Susan Jane Tanner)
[MARIUS and COSETTE lead a wedding procession.]
[GUESTS]
Ring out the bells upon this day of days
May all the angels of the Lord above
In jubilation (In)
Sing their songs of praise (Jubilation, sing their songs of praise)
And crown this
Blessed time with peace and love (And crown this blessed time)
(With peace and love)
[The procession becomes a dancing celebration. A waltz is played.]
[THÉNARDIER]
Ain't it a laugh?
Ain't it a treat?
Hob-nobbing here among the elite?
Here comes a prince
There goes a Jew
This one's a queer, but what can you do?
Paris at my feet
Paris in the dust
And here's me breaking bread with the upper crust
Beggar at the feast
Master of the dance
Life is easy pickings if you grab your chance
Everywhere you go
Law-abiding folk
Doing what is decent, but they're mostly broke
