How To Tell Time lyrics

[BRETODEAU, spoken]

Hello? Hello?

[AMÉLIE, spoken]

Look down, Monsieur Bretodeau

[BRETODEAU, spoken]

What?

[AMÉLIE, spoken]

Down...

[BRETODEAU, spoken]

I... I don't understand

[AMÉLIE, spoken]

Look down

(sung)

On the ledge

[BRETODEAU]

A metal box

[AMÉLIE]

A rusty hinge

[BRETODEAU]

I know that lock!

[AMÉLIE & BRETODEAU]

Slowly crack the treasure open

[AMÉLIE]

Cat's eye marble

[BRETODEAU]

I forgot

[AMÉLIE]

A diecast car

[BRETODEAU]

My hiding spot. My trusty knife

[AMÉLIE]

Coins from the war

[BRETODEAU]

My father's watch

[AMÉLIE & BRETODEAU]

And so much more

I am Howard Carter stepping into Tutankhamen's tomb

[COMPANY]

Unlock the box!

[BRETODEAU]

I'm seven in the schoolyard

[COMPANY]

Unlock the box!

[BRETODEAU]

I hear my mother's voice, she's calling from the hall

[COMPANY]

Unlock the box!

[BRETODEAU]

My father handing me his wristwatch!

Here's how to tell time

How to tell time

[AMÉLIE & BRETODEAU]

How to tell time

How to tell time

[AMÉLIE]

How to tell

[BRETODEAU, spoken]

A Cognac, please!
