While Les Miserables was not without its failings (like Russel Crowe and Amanda Seyfried’s singing), it was still a pretty great film overall.
Now, Teddyfilms has come out with a really well produced parody of the film that is based off the will.i.am song: “Scream and Shout”. Check it out below and then at the very bottom, check out the original.
The original song has over 180 million hits. Right now, the parody is sitting at around 10k.

LYRICS
Bring the ship mast
When you see him on the docks
He’s gonna lift stuff up
He’s gonna lift stuff up
Cause he’s Jean Valjean
When he lifts stuff up
Javert eyes us
Javert eyes us
Javert eyes us
See Javert in the shop
He’s watching us
He’s watching us
He’s watching us
At the end of the day
I got laid off
I got laid off
I got laid off
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed about, when hope was high
Cosette’s alone, alone, alone, alone
Cosette’s alone, alone, alone, alone
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed a dream, when hope was high
Cosette’s alone, alone, alone, alone
You are now, now messing with Jean Valjean and Fantine, wench
Oh, yeah… [3x]
Fetch the Water
Rock and roll, Thenardiers are out of control
Dear Cosette now we’ve got to go
Goin fast, Javert won’t go slow, no, no
Hey yo, not so fast, cause we love her so
Drink it up, and then drink some mo’
Pay us up, and we’ll let her go, go, go
Hey yo, fight it out, fight it now
If you know what we talking ’bout
Join the fight, and burn down the town, t-town
Hey yo, join the fight, and don’t turn it down
Here we go, we gon’ take this town
‘Cause everywhere that we go its
Revolution
When you see them in the pub
You’re gonna sign right up
You’re gonna sign right up
You’re gonna sign right up
When Javert’s in the pub
He spies on us
He spies on us
He spies on us
You see them boys in the pub
They loadin their guns
They loadin their guns
They loadin their guns
Everybody in the pub
Put the Barricades up
Put the Barricades up
Put the Barricades up
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed about, when hope was high
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed a dream, when hope was high
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
You are now, now revolting with Enjolras and Marius
Oh, yeah… [3x]
It goes on and on and on and on
I never lived until this started
How can I live when we are parted?
‘Cause I was feeling down, now my world has started
And maybe it goes on and on and on and on
But you and I can’t live together
So now my life can’t last forever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed about, when hope was high
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed a dream, when hope was high
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
And now I’m on my own, oh on my own
I dreamed a dream about, a time that’s gone by
I dreamed about, when hope was high
Valjean you’re not alone, alone, alone
You are now, now rocking with Marius and Dear Cossette
