The Second Attack

Lyrics

[ENJOLRAS, spoken] Positions! Fire! [ENJOLRAS] How do we stand, Feuilly? Make your report [FEUILLY] We've guns enough But ammunition's short [MARIUS] I will go into the streets There are bodies all around Ammunition to be had Lots of bullets to be found [ENJOLRAS] I can't let you go It's too much of a chance [MARIUS] And the same is true For any man here [VALJEAN] Let me go He's no more than a boy I am old I have nothing to fear [GAVROCHE] You need somebody quicker And I volunteer! [GAVROCHE is already climbing the barricade.] [LESGLES] Come back, Gavroche, don't you dare! [JOLY] Someone pull him down right now! [GAVROCHE] Look at me, I'm almost there! [ENJOLRAS, spoken] Gavroche! [A gunshot. It misses.] [GAVROCHE] Little peoplе know When little peoplе fight We may look easy pickings But we got some bite [Another gunshot. GAVROCHE is wounded.] [GAVROCHE] We'll fight like twenty armies And we won't give up So you'd better run for cover When the pup grows— [A final gunshot. GAVROCHE dies.] [ENJOLRAS, spoken] No!
