Upon These Stones - At The Barricade lyrics

Artist  : Les Miserables 
Song : Upon These Stones - At The Barricade
 
[The barricade is now complete.]
Students
     Now we pledge ourselves to hold this
barricade
     Let them come in their legions
     And they will be met
     Have faith in yourselves
     And don't be afraid
     Let's give 'em a screwing
     That they'll never forget!
     This is where it begins!
     And if I should die in the fight to be free
     Where the fighting is hardest
     There will I be
     Let them come if they dare
     We'll be there!
Army Officer [Offstage]
     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
     Damn their warnings, damn their lies
     They will see the people rise!
     [Javert climbs over the barricade.]
Javert
     Listen my friends
     I have done as I said
     I have been to their lines
     I have counted each man
     I will tell what I can
     Better be warned
     They have armies to spare
     And the danger is real
     We will need all our cunning
     To bring them to heel.
Enjolras
     Have faith
     If you know what their movements are
     We'll spoil their game
     There are ways that a people can fight
     We shall overcome their power
Javert
     I have overheard their plans
     There will be no attack tonight
     They intend to starve us out
     Before they start a proper fight
     Concentrate their force
     Hit us from the right.
