**Lovely Ladies** est une des chansons du film Les Misérables réalisé par Tom Hooper.

## Paroles

**MARIN 1 :**

I smell women

Smell 'em in the air.

Think I'll drop my anchor

In that harbour over there.

**MARIN 2 :**

Lovely ladies

I'll love ya til i'm broke

Seven monthd at sea

Can make you hungry for a poke.

**MARIN 3 :**

Even stokers need a little stoke!

**FEMME :**

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.

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

Come here, my dear

Let's see this trinket you wear

This bagatelle...

**FANTINE :**

Madame, I'll sell it to you!

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

I'll give you four.

**FANTINE :**

That wouldn't pay for the chain!

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

I'll give you five. You're far too eager to sell.

It's up to you.

**FANTINE :**

It's all I have.

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

That's not my fault.

**FANTINE :**

Please make it ten.

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

No more than five.

My dear, we all must stay alive.

**FEMME :**

Lovely ladies

Waiting in the dark

Ready for a thick one

Or a quick one in the park.

**MARIN 1:**

Long time, short time

Anytime, my dear.

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

**TOUS :**

Quick and cheap is underneath the pier!

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

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!

**VIEILLE BIQUE :**

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

Just think of that!

**FANTINE :**

It pays a debt.

**VIEILLE FEMME :**

Just think of that.

**FANTINE:**

What can I do? It pays a debt.

Ten francs may save my poor Cosette!

**MARIN 3:**

Lovely lady!

Fastest on the street.

Wasn't there three minutes

She was back up on her feet.

**MARIN 1:** Lovely lady!

What yer waiting for?

Doesn't take a lot of savvy

Just to be a whore. Come on lady,

What's a lady for?

**Pimp:**

Gimme the dirt

Who’s that bit over there?

**Whore 1:**

A bit of skirt

She’s the one sold her hair

She's got a kid

Sends her all that she can.

**PROXENETE :**

I might've known

There is always some man

Lovely lady, come along and join us,

Lovely lady!

**PROSTITUEE 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. Make money in your sleep!

**PROSTITUEE 2 :**

That's right dearie

Let 'im have the lot.

**PROSTITUEE 3 :**

That's right dearie

Show him what you've got!

**FEMME :**

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

Harbour 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!
