    [SAILOR #1]
    I smell women, smell 'em in the air
    Think I'll drop my anchor in that harbor over there
    [SAILOR #2]
    Lovely ladies, smell 'em through the smoke
    Seven days at sea can make you hungry for a poke
    [SAILOR #3]
    Even stokers need a little stoke!
    [WOMEN]
    Lovely ladies, waiting for a bite
    Waiting for the customers who only come at night
    Lovely ladies, waiting for the call
    Standing up or lying down or any way at all
    Bargain prices up against the wall
    [OLD WOMAN (approaching Fantine)]
    Come here, my dear, let's see this trinket you wear
    This bagatelle
    [FANTINE]
    Madame, I'll sell it to you
    [OLD WOMAN]
    I'll give you four
    [FANTINE]
    That wouldn't pay for the chain
    [OLD WOMAN]
    I'll give you five. You're far too eager to sell
    It's up to you...
    [FANTINE]
    It's all I have
    [OLD WOMAN]
    That's not my fault
    [FANTINE]
    Please make it ten
    [OLD WOMAN]
    No more than five
    My dear, we all must stay alive
    [WOMEN]
    Lovely ladies, waiting in the dark
    Ready for a thick one or a quick one in the park
    [WHORE #1]
    Long time, short time, any time, my dear
    Cost a little extra if you want to take all year!
    [WOMEN]
    Quick and cheap is underneath the pier!
    [CRONE (approaching Fantine)]
    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
    [SAILORS] [WHORES]
    Lovely lady Lovely ladies
    Fastest on the street Lovely little girls
    Wasn't there three minutes Lovely ladies
    She was back up on her feet Lovely little ladies
    Lovely lady Lovely girlies
    What you waiting for Lovely little girls
    Doesn't take a lot of savvy We are lovely
    Just to be a whore Lovely girls
    Come on, lady Lovely ladies
    What's a lady for What's a lady for
    [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
    [WHORE #1]
    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-
    [WHORE #2]
    -Make money in your sleep
    [WHORE #1]
    That's right, dearie, let him have the lot
    [WHORE #3]
    That's right, dearie, show him what you've got
    [WOMEN]
    Old men, young men, take 'em as they come
    Harbor rats and alley cats and every type 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?

    Thank you for posting! Love seeing old footage of Les Mis back when it was magical with the original staging, lyrics and costumes!

    American accents - cringe.

      That’s kinda like saying Les Miz shouldn’t be performed by Americans…
