The Death Of Gavroche - Aaron Tveit, Daniel Huttlestone, Students

We’re the only ones left

(singing)

The people have not stirred

We’re abandoned by those who still live in fear

Let us not waste lives

Let all who wish to go from here

Do you hear the people sing?

Singing the song of angry men

It is the music of a people

Who will not be slaves again

When the beating of your heart

Echoes the beating of the drums

There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes

Little people know when little people fight

We may look easy pickings…

Gavroche?

…but we got some bite

So never kick a dog, because he’s just a pup

Gavroche!

Gavroche is shot at

We’ll fight like twenty armies…

Gavroche!

And we won’t give up!

Gavroche!

Come back!

Gavroche, what are you doing?

Come back!

Come back!

Gavroche is shot at again

So you better…

Don’t let him go!

…run for cover… when the pup…

Come back!

Someone stop him!

…grows…

Gavroche is shot.

A fight breaks out

You at the barricades, listen to this!

The people of Paris are safe in their beds

You have no chance

No chance at all

Why throw your lives away?

Let us die facing our foes!

Make them bleed while we can!

Make them pay through the nose!

Make them pay for every man!

Let others rise to take our place

Until the earth is free!
