The Thénardier Waltz Of Treachery

What to do?
What to say?
Shall you carry our treasure away?
What a gem
What a pearl
Beyond rubies is our little girl
How can we speak of debt?
Let's not haggle for darling Cosette
Dear Fantine, gone to rest
Have we done for her child what is best?
Shared our bread
Shared each bone
Treated her like she's one of our own
Like our own, Monsieur
Your feelings do you credit, sir
And I will ease the parting blow
Let us not talk of bargains or bones or greed
Now, may I say, we are agreed?
That would quite fit the bill
If she hadn't so often been ill
Little dear, cost us dear
Medicinces are expenisive, M'sieur
Now that we begrudged a sou
It's no more than we Christians must do
One thing more
One small doubt
There are treacherous people about
No offense, please reflect
Your intentions may not be correct
No more words
Here's your price
Fifteen hundred for your sacrifice
Come, Cosette, say goodbye
Let us seek out some friendlier sky
Thank you both, for Cosette
It won't take you too long to forget
