LET IT FLY

LET IT FLY
00:00 / 04:08

JERRY CRUNCHER: Now I think that when Dr. Manette heard the news of Charles Darnay being imprisoned, it shocked him back to reality. He started talking about his old days in the Bastille for the first time since his release. And, he even began to think that he could save Charles. So, Lucy, Miss Pross and Mr. Lorry went back to Paris with Dr. Manette in hopes of doing just that. When they got here I met them at the Defarge's wine shop and Dr. Manette tried to use his considerable influence with the revolutionaries, who sympathized with him for having served time in the Bastille. But Madame Defarge insisted on having her revenge against the Evrémonde family and she told everyone that Charles Darnay Saint Evrémonde will be tried for his crimes against the people of France and justice would not be denied! She was a bitter one that Madame Defarge!
 

(MADAME DEFARGE)

WHEN YOU DO IT RIGHT
NO ONE EVER REMEMBERS
WHEN YOU DO IT WRONG
NO ONE EVER FORGETS

HIDING IN YOUR EYES
IS NOT GOING TO DECEIVE US
HERE IS THE EVIDENCE
WE NEEDED TO CONVICT

 

(CHORUS)


LET IT FLY
LET HIM KISS THE STEEL OF DEATH
LET IT FLY
LET THE BLADE ACROSS HIS NECK
LET HIM DIE
LET THE BASKET CATCH HIS HEAD
HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US

WE FOUND THIS LETTER
SIGNED BY DR.MANETTE
IT SAYS THE EVEREMONDES
LOCKED HIM UP THAT DAY
THE MARQUIS TOOK THIS GIRL
HE TRIED TO HAVE HIS WAY WITH HER
THE DOCTOR TRIED TO SAVE HER
BUT THE MARQUIS GOT HIS WAY
AND THEN HE KILLED THE GIRL
SHE WAS MY SISTER...SO

 

(CHORUS)


LET IT FLY
LET HIM KISS THE STEEL OF DEATH
LET IT FLY
LET THE BLADE ACROSS HIS NECK
LET HIM DIE
LET THE BASKET CATCH HIS HEAD
HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US
HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US
HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US
LET IT FLY


(INSTRUMENTAL)
 

(MADAME DEFARGE)


DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR EXPLANATIONS
DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR ALIBI'S
REVENGE IS SUCH A SWEET SENSATION
DON'T WANT TO LET IT PASS US BY

 

(CHORUS)


SO LET IT FLY
LET HIM KISS THE STEEL OF DEATH
LET IT FLY
LET THE BLADE ACROSS HIS NECK
LET HIM DIE
LET THE BASKET CATCH HIS HEAD


HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US
HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US
HE WAS NEVER ONE OF US
LET IT FLY
