letra de abc café / red and black - the les misérables 2010 company
[combeferre]
at notre dame
the sections are prepared
[feuilly]
at rue de bac
they’re straining at the leash
[courfeyrac]
students, workers, everyone
there’s a river on the run
like the flowing of the tide
paris coming to our side!
[enjolras]
the time is near
so near it’s stirring the blood in their veins
and yet, beware
don’t let the wine go to your brains
for the army we fight is a dangеrous foe
with the men and thе arms that we never can match
oh, it’s easy to sit here and swat ’em like flies
but the national guard will be harder to catch
we need a sign
to rally the people
to call them to arms
to bring them in line!
[marius enters.]
marius, you’re late
[joly]
what’s wrong today?
you look as if you’ve seen a ghost
[grantaire]
some wine and say what’s going on
[marius]
a ghost you say, a ghost maybe
she was just like a ghost to me
one minute there then she was gone
[grantaire]
i am agog, i am aghast
is marius in love at last?
i’ve never heard him “ooh” and “ah”
you talk of battles to be won
and here he comes like don ju-an
it is better than an opera
[grantaire, spoken]
thank you, gentlemen
[enjolras]
it is time for us all
to decide who we are
do we fight for the right
to a night at the opera now?
have you asked of yourselves
what’s the price you might pay?
is this simply a game
for rich young boys to play?
the colors of the world
is changing day by day
red—the blood of angry men
black—the dark of ages past
red—a world about to dawn
black—the night that ends at last!
[marius]
had you been there tonight
you might know how it feels
to be struck to the bone
in a moment of breathless delight
had you been there tonight
you might also have known
how the world may be changed
in just one burst of light
and what was right seems wrong
and what was wrong seems right
[grantaire]
red
[marius]
i feel my soul on fire
[grantaire]
black
[marius]
my world if she’s not there
[students]
red
[marius]
the color of desire
[students]
black
[marius]
the color of despair
[enjolras]
marius, you’re no longer a child
i do not doubt you mean it well
but now there is a higher call
who cares about your lonely soul?
we strive towards a larger goal
our little lives don’t count at all
[students]
red—the blood of angry men
black—the dark of ages past
red—a world about to dawn
black—the night that ends at last!
[enjolras]
well, courfeyrac, do we have all the guns?
feuilly, combeferre, our time is running short
[gavroche rushes in, shouting.]
[enjolras & gavroche, spoken]
grantaire, put the bottle down! (listen!)
[enjolras]
do we have the guns we need?
[grantaire & gavroche, spoken]
give me brandy on my breath (listen to me!)
and i’ll breathe them all to death
[gavroche, spoken]
listen, everybody!
general lamarque is dead!
[enjolras]
lamarque is dead
lamarque, his death is the hour of fate
the people’s man
his death is the sign we await
on his funeral day, they will honour his name
with the light of rebellion ablaze in their eyes
from their candles of grief we will kindle our flame
on the tomb of lamarque shall our barricade rise
the time is here
let us welcome it gladly with courage and cheer
let us take to the streets with no doubt in our hearts
but a jubilant shout
they will come one and all
they will come when we call!
