This song and the role of Madame Defarge were performed by Natalie Toro in the 2008 Broadway production.
Out of sight, out of mind. See the child of the street Never give them a thought; How they live where they sleep Grind them into the ground It's the kind thing to do Death is welcome retreat from the sorrow they find Out of sight, out of mind But here, the pain is never out of sight. The sick, the starved, the poor. There is no room for us to turn away. We can't just shut the door. Out of sight, out of mind. Where the strong never look. If we don't come too near it's as if we're not here. And there's nothing to fear. But out of sight we have the room to plan We watch them from afar. They won't suspect That soon we'll see a day When they know who we are. Let them stay unafraid. Just for now keep them blind Patience waits for a spark Til the time that is right. We'll remain in the dark... Out of sight, out of mind Out of sight, out of mind Out of sight, out of mind
