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
Dark was the night when our tale was begun on the docks near Notre Dame
Four frightened gypsies slid silently under the docks near Notre Dame
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
The bells of Notre Dame
(Chorus) Kyrie eleison
(C) Jugde Claude Frollo longed to purge the world of vice and sin
(Ch) Kyrie eleison
(C) And he saw corruption ev'rywhere except within
(Ch) Dies irae (Dies irae)
Dies illa (Dies illa)
Solvet saeclum in favila
Teste David cum sibylla
Quantus tremor est futurus
Dies irae
Quando Judex est venturus
Quantus tremor est futurus
Dies irae
Quando Judex est venturus
Dies irae
Solvet saeclum in favila
Dies irae dies illa
(Archdeacon) See there the innocent blood you have spilt on the steps of Notre Dame
Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt on the steps of Notre Dame
You can lie to yourself and your minions
You can claim that you haven't a qualm
But you never can run, nor hide what you've done from the eyes
The very eyes of Notre Dame
(Ch) Kyrie Eleison
(C) And for one time in his life of power and control
(Ch) Kyrie Eleison
(C) Frollo felt a twinge of fear for his immortal soul
(Frollo) Just so he's kept locked away where no one else can see
Even this foul creature may yet prove one day to be
Of use for me
(C) 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?
(C+Ch) Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
Bells of Notre Dame
