At the end of the day you're another day older And that's all you can say for the life of the poor
It's a struggle, it's a war And there's nothing that anyone's giving One more day standing about, what is it for?
One day less to be living.
At the end of the day you're another day colder
And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill
And the righteous hurry past They don't hear the little ones crying
And the winter is coming on fast, ready to kill
One day nearer to dying!
At the end of the day there's another day dawning
And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise
Like the waves crash on the sand Like a storm that'll break any second There's a hunger in the land There's a reckoning still to be reckoned and
There's gonna be hell to pay
At the end of the day!
At the end of the day you get nothing for nothing
Sitting flat on your butt doesn't buy any bread
There are children back at home And the children have got to be fed And you're lucky to be in a job And in a bed!
And we're counting our blessings!
Have you seen how the foreman is fuming today?
With his terrible breath and his wandering hands?
It's because little Fantine won't give him his way Take a look at his trousers, you'll see where he stands! And the boss, he never knows That the foreman is always in heat If Fantine doesn't look out Watch how she goes
She'll be out on the street!
At the end of the day it's another day over
With enough in your pocket to last for a week
Pay the landlord, pay the shop Keep on grafting as long as you're able
Keep on grafting till you drop Or it's back to the crumbs off the table You've got to pay your way
At the end of the day!
And what have we here, little innocent sister?
Come on Fantine, let's have all the news!
Ooh..."Dear Fantine you must send us more money... Your child needs a doctor... There's no time to lose..." Give that letter to me It is none of your business
With a husband at home And a bit on the side!
Is there anyone here Who can swear before God She has nothing to fear? She has nothing to hide?
Will someone tear these two apart What is this fighting all about? This is a factory, not a circus!
Now, come on ladies, settle down
I run a business of repute I am the Mayor of this town
I look to you to sort this out And be as patient as you can Now someone say how this began!
At the end of the day She's the one who began it!
There's a kid that she's hiding In some little town
There's a man she has to pay You can guess how she picks up the extra You can bet she's earning her keep Sleeping around
And the boss wouldn't like it!
Yes it's true there's a child And the child is my daughter
And her father abandoned us Leaving us flat
Now she lives with an innkeeper man And his wife And I pay for the child What's the matter with that?
At the end of the day She'll be nothing but trouble
And there's trouble for all When there's trouble for one!
While we're earning our daily bread
She's the one with her hands in the butter You must send the slut away Or we're all gonna end in the gutter And it's us who'll have to pay
At the end of the day!
I might have known the ***** could bite I might have known the cat had claws I might have guessed your little secret
Ah yes, the virtuous Fantine Who keeps herself so pure and clean You'd be the cause I had no doubt
Of any trouble hereabout You play a virgin in the light But need no urgin' in the night. She's been laughing at you While she's having her men She'll be nothing but trouble again and again You must sack her today Sack the girl today!
Right my girl. On your way!
