The Second Attack Lyrics - Les Miserables

(The battle recommences) 

ENJOLRAS 

How do we stand, Feuilly? Make your report. 

FEUILLY 

We've guns enough, but ammunition's short 

MARIUS 

Let me go into the streets 

There are bodies all around 

Ammunition to be had 

Lots of bullets to be found! 

ENJOLRAS 

I won't let you go, it's too much of a chance! 

MARIUS 

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 climbs the barricade) 

LESGLES 

Come back Gavroche, don't you dare! 

JOLY 

Someone pull him down at once! 

GAVROCHE 

Look at me, I'm almost there! 

Gunshot 

GAVROCHE 

Little people know, when 

Little people fight, we 

May look easy pickings 

But we've got some bite! 

(He is hit again.) 

So never kick a dog 

Because he's just a pup 

(He is hit again) 

We'll fight like twenty armies 

And we won't give up 

(He is shot again) 

So you'd better run for cover 

When the pup grows.... 

(He dies after a fourth shot)
