[00:00.68] At The End Of The Day
[00:01.62] Hugh Jackman
[00:02.39]
[00:38.58] At the end of the day you're another day older,
[00:42.35] and thats all you can say for the life of the poor.
[00:45.76] It's a struggle, it's a war,
[00:47.75] and there's nothing that anyones giving
[00:49.84] one more day standing about what is it for?
[00:54.32] One day less to be living.
[00:55.48]
[00:57.40] At the end of the day, you're another day colder,
[01:01.30] and the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill.
[01:04.80] And the righteous hurry past,
[01:07.40] they dont hear the little ones crying,
[01:09.44] and the winter is coming on fast, ready to kill.
[01:13.83] One day nearer to dying.
[01:15.14]
[01:17.02] At the end of the day,
[01:17.21] there's another day dawning,
[01:21.12] and the sun in the morning is waiting to rise.
[01:24.50] Like the waves crash on the sand,
[01:26.57] like a storm that will break any second,
[01:28.68] there's a hunger in the land.
[01:30.64] There's a reckoning still to be reckoned,
[01:32.62] and there's gonna be hell to pay, at the end of the day.
[01:37.10]
[01:38.83] At the end of the day you get nothing for nothing,
[01:42.61] sitting flat on your bum doesnt buy any bread.
[01:46.12] And there's children back at home, and the children have got to be fed,
[01:50.14] and your lucky to be in a job and in a bed.
[01:54.20] And we're counting our blessings
[01:57.32] Have you seen how the foreman is fuming today?
[02:01.33] With his terrible breath and his wandering hands
[02:05.15] All because little Fantine won't give him his way
[02:07.40] Take a look at his trousers
[02:08.38] You see where he stands
[02:09.53]
[02:10.76] And the boss he never knows
[02:12.82] that his foreman is always in heat
[02:14.73] If Fantine doesn't look out
[02:16.45] watch how she goes
[02:19.08] she'll be out on the street
[02:20.46]
[02:22.22] At the end of the day, it's another day over,
[02:26.19] with enough in your pocket to last for a week.
[02:29.61] Pay the landlord, pay the shop,
[02:31.65] keep on grafting as long as your able.
[02:33.63] Keep on grafting till you drop,
[02:35.64] or its back to the crusts off the table.
[02:37.63] Well you've got to pay your way, at the end of the day.
[02:44.52] And what have we here little innocent sister
[02:48.30] Come on Fantine let's have all the news
[02:52.76] Dear Fantine you must send us more money
[02:54.38] Your child needs a doctor there's no time to lose
[02:56.98]
[02:58.43] Give that letter to me, it is none of your business
[03:02.34] With a husband at home and a bit on the side.
[03:05.78] Is there anyone here who can swear before God
[03:09.90] She has nothing to fear, she has nothing to hide?
[03:11.88]
[03:21.57] Will someone tear these two apart
[03:23.46] This is a factory not a circus
[03:27.59] Now come on ladies settle down
[03:30.99] I am the mayor of this town
[03:32.72] I run a business of repute
[03:35.08]
[03:36.01] I'll look to you to sort this out
[03:40.67]
[03:42.80] I might have known the bitch could bite
[03:44.73] I might have known the cat had claws
[03:46.84] I might have guessed your little secret
[03:50.62] Ah yes the virtous Fantine
[03:54.43] Who keeps herself so pure and clean
[03:56.85] You'd be the cause I had no doubt
[03:59.48] Of any trouble here about
[04:01.45] You play a virgin in the light
[04:03.41] But need no urgin' in the night
[04:05.48] She's been laughing at you while she's having her men
[04:07.33] She'll be nothing but trouble again and again
[04:09.25] You must sack her today! (Sack the girl today!)
[04:14.62] Right my girl! On your way!
[04:16.69]
