How To Tell Time

[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!
