Original West End Cast of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie
Over the Top
[QUEENS]
When the dogs of war are dancing
And their arrows hit their mark
When your days are getting darker
When there's daggers in the dark
You will always find your spotlight
You will always find your feet
Screaming til your lungs expire
Ready, steady, aim and fire
Did you think it would be easy?
You're one footstep from defeat
But a soldier shan't surrender
And a hero can't retreat
Though your enemies surround you
And they've got you in their sights
Sound the bugles
All set sarge
Ready, steady, aim and charge
Over the top my friend
Unto the breach my friend
Rend the unending night
Let's get your armour on
Let's get your warpaint done
'Cause it's time to fight
When your sisters are behind you
They're your brothers marching too
And the warrior inside you
Comes to run the dragon through
Though your darkest demon comes the day that you doubt
You become a he-man, every demon you rout
Time to face your fear
Ready, steady, aim and cheer
Over the top my friend
Unto the breach my friend
Rend the unending night
You've got your armour on
You've had your warpaint done
And you'll be a man my son
So get out there and fight
[HUGO, spoken]
It's time Jamie who is she?
Name her, name her who is she?
[JAMIE, spoken]
I don't know!
[HUGO]
You have to know!
[JAMIE]
I don't know!
[HUGO]
Well come on!
What's all this about?
[JAMIE]
I don't know!
[HUGO]
You do!
[JAMIE]
I can't!
[HUGO]
Say it, Jamie! Say it!
[JAMIE]
Well it's about me, ME ME!
[HUGO]
That's it, kid!
