Lovely Ladies
Les Miserables

[The docks. Sailors, whores and their customers, pimps, etc. Fantine wanders in.]

Fantine:

How much for this? It's my daughter's

Man:

I'll give you four francs for that

Fantine:

Four? It's worth ten!

Sailors:

I smell women

Smell 'em in the air

Think I'll drop my anchor

In that harbor over there

Lovely ladies

I'll love you 'till I'm broke

Seven months at sea

And now I'm hungry for a poke

Even stokers need a little stoke!

Whores:

Lovely ladies

Waiting for a bite

Waiting for the customers

Who only come at night

Lovely ladies

Ready for the call

Standing up or lying down

Or any way at all

Bargain prices up against the wall

Crone:

What pretty hair

What pretty locks you got there

What luck you got, it's worth a centime my dear

I'll take the lot

Fantine

Don't touch me, leave me alone

Crone:

Let's make a price, I'll give you all of ten francs

Just think of that!

Fantine:

It pays a debt

Crone:

Just think of that

Fantine:

What can I do? It pays a debt.

Ten francs may save my poor Cosette!

[Fantine re-emerges, her long hair cut short.]

Whores:

Lovely ladies

Waiting in the dark

Ready for a thick one

Or a quick one in the park

Long time short time

Any time, my dear

Cost a little extra if you want to take all year!

Quick and cheap is underneath the pier!

Men/ Sailors:

Lovely ladies

Fastest on the street

Wasn't every minute,

She was back up on her feet

Lovely ladies

What's a lady for?

Doesn't take a lot of savvy just to be a whore!

Lovely ladies, what's a lady for?

Man 2:

Come over here it's twenty francs for a tooth

Whore:

Come here my dear I'll pay you well for your youth

Man 2:

The pain won't last

You'll still be able to bite

Whore:

*Whispers* It's just the back ones

Man 2:

I do it fast

I know my business alright

It's worth a go

Fantine:

You'll pay me first what I am due

Man 2:

You'll get twice if I take two

Pimp:

Give me the dirt, who's that bit over there?

Whore 1:

A bit of skirt, she's the one sold her hair.

Whore 2:

She's got a kid sends her all that she can

Pimp:

I might have known

There is always some man

Lovely lady, come along and join us!

Lovely lady!

Whores:

Come on dearie, why all the fuss?

You're no grander than the rest of us

Life has dropped you at the bottom of the heap

Join your sisters, make money in your sleep!

[Fantine goes off with one of the sailors.]

That's right dearie, show him what you've got!

That's right dearie, let him have the lot

Old men, young men, take 'em as they come

Harbor rats and alley cats and every kind of scum

Poor men, rich men, leaders of the land

See them with their trousers off they're never quite as grand

All it takes is money in your hand!

Lovely ladies

Going for a song

Got a lot of callers

But they never stay for long

Fantine:

Come on, Captain

You can wear your shoes

Don't it make a change

To have a girl who can't refuse

Easy money

Lying on a bed

Just as well they never see

The hate that's in your head

Don't they know they're making love

To one already dead!
