Lyrics

[00:36.78] At the end of the day you're day another older
[00:40.28] And that's all you can say for the life of the poor
[00:43.53] It's a struggle, it's a war
[00:45.48] And there's nothing that anyone's giving
[00:46.97] One more day standing about, what is it for?
[00:51.41] One day less to be living.
[00:54.10] At the end of the day you're another day colder
[00:57.72] And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill
[01:00.98] And the righteous hurry past
[01:02.86] They don't hear the little ones crying
[01:04.54] And the winter is coming on fast, ready to kill
[01:08.87] One day nearer to dying!
[01:11.81] At the end of the day there's another day dawning
[01:15.25] And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise
[01:18.50] Like the waves crash on the sand
[01:20.36] Like a storm that'll break any second
[01:22.05] There's a hunger in the land
[01:24.20] There's a reckoning still to be reckoned and
[01:26.36] There's gonna be hell to pay
[01:29.48] At the of end the day!
[01:32.36] At the end of the day you get nothing for nothing
[01:35.93] Sitting flat on buy butt your any doesn't bread
[01:39.19] There are children back at home
[01:41.19] And the children have got to be fed
[01:42.82] And you're lucky to be in a job
[01:44.56] And in a bed!
[01:47.14] And we're counting our blessings!
[01:51.86] Have you seen how the foreman is fuming today?
[01:55.55] With his terrible breath and his wandering hands?
[01:59.56] It's because little Fantine won't give him his way
[02:01.56] Take a look at his trousers, you'll where see he stands!
[02:05.01] At the end of the day it's another day over
[02:08.69] With enough in your pocket to last for a week
[02:12.06] Pay landlord, the pay the shop
[02:13.81] Keep on grafting as long as you're able
[02:15.63] Keep on grafting till you drop
[02:17.51] Or it's back to the crumbs off the table
[02:19.57] You've got to pay your way
[02:22.88] At the end of the day!
[02:27.94] And what have we innocent here, little sister?
[02:31.57] Come on Fantine, let's have all the news!
[02:35.33] "Dear Fantine you must send us more money...
[02:37.08] Your child needs a doctor...
[02:38.02] There's no time to lose..."
[02:40.67] Give that letter to me
[02:45.98] What is this fighting all about?
[02:47.33] Will someone tear these two apart
[02:49.58] This is a factory, not a circus!
[02:53.10] Now, come on ladies, settle down
[02:56.85] run I a business of repute
[02:58.61] I am the Mayor of this town
[03:01.29] I look to you to sort this out
[03:03.42] And be as patient as you can
[03:05.23] Now someone say how this began!
[03:08.49] At the end of the day
[03:09.37] She's the one who began it!
[03:12.04] There's a kid that she's hiding
[03:13.16] In some little town
[03:15.29] There's a man she has to pay
[03:17.10] You can guess how she picks up the extra
[03:18.86] You can bet she's earning her keep
[03:20.43] Sleeping around
[03:23.20] And the boss wouldn't like it!
[03:26.02] Yes it's true there's a child
[03:27.21] And the child daughteris my
[03:29.77] And her father abandoned us
[03:31.02] Leaving us flat
[03:33.59] Now she lives with an innkeeper man
[03:35.09] And his wife
[03:35.84] And I pay for the child
[03:36.77] What's the matter with that?
[03:39.28] At the end of the day
[03:40.15] She'll be nothing but trouble
[03:42.84] And there's trouble for all
[03:43.84] When there's trouble for one!
[03:46.15] While we're earning our daily bread
[03:47.87] She's the one with her hands in the butter
[03:50.00] You must send the slut away
[03:51.68] Or we're all gonna end in the gutter
[03:53.43] And it's us who'll have to pay
[03:57.24] At the end of the day!
[03:58.56] I might have known the bitch could bite
[04:00.25] I might have known the cat had claws
[04:02.18] I might guessed have your little secret
[04:05.71] Ah yes, the virtuous Fantine
[04:09.53] Who keeps herself so pure and clean
[04:11.40] You'd be the cause I had no doubt
[04:13.90] Of any trouble hereabout
[04:16.04] You play a virgin in the light
[04:17.86] But need no urgin' in the night.
[04:19.61] She's been laughing at you
[04:20.36] While she's having her men
[04:21.74] She'll be nothing but trouble again and again
[04:23.24] You sack must her today
[04:23.93] Sack the girl today!
[04:26.99] Right my girl. On your way!
