Alain Boublil - Building the Barricade lyrics

[The barricade is now complete] [STUDENTS (together)] Now we pledge ourselves to hold this barricade [MARIUS] Let them come in their legions and they will be met! [ENJOLRAS] Have faith in yourselves and don't be afraid [GRANTAIRE] Let's give 'em a screwing they'll never forget! [COMBEFERRE] This is where it begins! [COURFEYRAC] And if I should die in the fight to be free Where the fighting is hardest, there will I be [FEUILLY] Let them come if they dare We'll be there! [Horns announce the arrival of the army] [ARMY OFFICER (off-stage, with a loud-hailer)] You at the barricade listen to this! No one is coming to help you to fight! You're on your own You have no friends Give up your guns or die! [ENJOLRAS] Damn their warnings. Damn their lies! They will see the people rise! [STUDENTS (together)] Damn their warnings. Damn their lies! They will see the people rise!
