Saint Monty's comin' down
Across the Rue Plumet
Up to the Chanvrerie
Like Gavroche in the fray
Aglow with all his bows
Charmer of the shadows
Coming at you on the count of 1, 2
1,2,3,4!
My name is Monty
And you better not wear it down
Real foppish dandy who just happens to rule this town
King of Patron-Minette
I'm here for you to know
There is a devil, and it's me, way down below
I'm France's most wanted teen
With an angel face and a taste for Eponine
Hot grisettes, and jail breaks
And my hand in a flame
I am the son of the whore
That puts Fantine to shame
Raised in Paris*
In a hell 'lot of fights
Product of love and beer
For which I've been ostracized
I'm France's most wanted teen
With an angel face and a taste for Eponine
Are you talking to me?
I'll give you something to cry about!
Saint Monty!
My name is Saint Monty
I'm a "slippery" guy
I'm one always in on the latest crime
A teenage assassin, executing some fun
With an air like the breeze of spring
I really love to say it
Yes, I told you so
So stop the lecture or I'll shoot you down, old con
Welcome to the Rue
Now gimme some blood
I'm the elected leader of the street gamin
It's sodomy
And tragedy
It's Saint Monty
And that's my name!
And don't wear it out!
* I think 'Paris' would be better pronounced in the French way "Par-ee" but whatever sounds best to you. Hope you liked and please review!
