Alain Boublil - Javert At The Baracade Lyrics

[ENJOLRAS, spoken]
He’s back

[JAVERT]
Listen up 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 beware, they have armies to spare
And our danger is real
We will need all our cunning to bring them to heal

[ENJOLRAS]
Have faith!
If you know what their movements are
We’ll spoil their game
There are ways that our people can fight
We shall overcome their power

[JAVERT]
I have overheard their plans
There’ll be no attack tonight
They intend to starve us out before they start a proper fight
Concentrate their force
Hit us when it’s light
[GAVROCHE, spoken]
Liar!

(singing)

Good evening dear inspector
Lovely evening, my dear
I know this man, my friend
His name’s inspector Javert
So don’t believe a word he says
Cause none of it’s true
This only goes to show what little people can do

[COURFEYRAC]
Bravo, little Gavroche
You’re the top of the class

[PROIVAIRE]
So what are we going to do with this snake in the grass?

[ENJOLRAS]
Take this man and throw him in the tavern
And there, the people will decide your fate
Inspector Javert

[JAVERT]
Shoot me now or shoot me later
Every schoolboy to his spot
Death to each and every traitor
I renounce your people’s court
