lirik lagu theodd1sout – the bells of notre dame
[clopin]
morning in paris, the city awakes
to the bells of notre dame
the fisherman fishes, the bakerman bakes
to the bells of notre dame
to the big bells as loud as the thunder
to the little bells soft as a psalm
and some say the soul of the city’s
the toll of the bells
the bells of notre dame
(speaking)
listen, they’re beautiful, no?
so many t-colors of sound, so many changing sou-moods
because you know, they don’t ring all by themselves
[puppet]
– they don’t?
[clopin]
no, you stupid idiot
up there, high, high in the dark bell tower
lives the mysterious bell ringer
who is this creature?
[puppet]
– who?
[clopin]
what is he?
[puppet]
– what?
[clopin]
how did he be come to be there?
[puppet]
– how?
[clopin]
ow, shut up, clopin will tell you
it is a tale, a tale of a man and a monster
(sung)
dark was the night when our tale was begun
on the docks near notre dame
[man #1, spoken]
shut it up, will you!
[man #2]
we’ll be spotted!
[woman]
hush, little one
[clopin, sung]
four frightened gypsies slid silently under
the docks near notre dame
[man #3, spoken]
four guilders for safe p-ssage into paris
[clopin, sung]
but a trap had been laid for the gypsies
and they gazed up in fear and alarm
at a figure whose clutches
were iron as much as the bells
[frollo, spoken]
bring these-
[man #1, spoken]
judge claude frollo!
[clopin, sung]
the bells of notre dame
[chorus]
kyrie eleison (lord have mercy)
[clopin]
judge claude frollo longed
to purge the world
of vice and sin
[chorus]
kyrie eleison (lord have mercy)
[clopin]
and he saw corruption
ev’rywhere
except within
[frollo, spoken]
bring these gypsy vermin to the palace of justice
[guard]
you there, what are you hiding?
[frollo]
stolen goods, no doubt. take them
[clopin]
she ran
[chorus, sung]
he is is evil, he is evil
he is evil, he is evil
he is evil
(acapella sounds)
[woman, spoken]
sanctuary, please give us sanc-
oh wait that’s not it
sanctuary, please give us sanctuary
(acapella sounds)
[james, spoken]
she died, oh she’s dead on the stairs
oh, oh who is it?
[frollo]
a baby? a monster!
(acapella sounds)
[clopin, sung]
cried the archdeacon
[frollo, spoken]
this is an unholy demon
i am sending it back to h-ll, where it belongs
[archdeacon, sung]
see there the innocent blood you have spilt
on the steps of notre dame
[frollo, spoken]
i am guiltless. she ran, i pursued
[archdeacon, sung]
now you would add this child’s blood to your guilt
on the steps of notre dame
[frollo, spoken]
my conscience is clear!
[archdeacon, sung]
you can lie to yourself and your minions
you can claim that you haven’t a qualm
but you never can run from
nor hide what you’ve done from the eyes
the very eyes of notre dame
[chorus]
(acapella sounds)
[clopin]
and for one time in his life
of power and control
[clopin]
frollo felt a twinge of fear
for his immortal soul
[frollo, spoken]
what must i do?
[archdeacon]
care for the child, and raise it as your own
[frollo]
what? i’m to be saddled with this misshapen…?
very well. let him live with you, in your church
[archdeacon]
live here? where?
[frollo]
anywhere
(sung)
just so he’s kept locked away
where no one else can see
(spoken)
the bell tower, perhaps
and who knows, our lord works in mysterious ways
(sung)
even this foul creature may
yet prove one day to be
of use to me
[clopin, spoken]
and frollo gave the child a cruel name
a name that means “half-formed”:
quasimodo
(sung)
now here is a riddle to guess if you can
sing the bells of notre dame
who is the monster and who is the man?
[clopin and chorus]
sing the bells, bells, bells, bells
bells, bells, bells, bells
bells of notre dame
hahaha
dame
