j. mummert - lin-manuel miranda’s “schuyler defeated” lyrics

Loading...

[phillip]
look!
grandpa’s in the paper!
“war hero philip schuyler loses senate seat to young upstart aaron burr”
grandpa just lost his seat in the senate

[eliza]
sometimes that’s how it goes

[phillip]
daddy’s gonna find out any minute

[eliza]
i’m sure he already knows

[phillip]
further down

[phillip & eliza]
further down

[phillip]
let’s meet the newest senator from new york

[eliza]
new york

[phillip & eliza]
our senator

[hamilton]
burr?
since when are you a democratic-republican?

[burr]
since being one put me on the up and up again

[hamilton]
no one knows who you are or what you do

[burr]
they don’t need to know me
they don’t like you

[hamilton]
excuse me?

[burr]
oh, wall street thinks you’re great
you’ll always be adored by the things you create
but upstate—

[hamilton]
wait

[burr]
—people think you’re crooked
schuyler’s seat was up for grabs so i took it

[hamilton]
i’ve always considered you a friend

[burr]
i don’t see why that has to end

[hamilton]
you changed parties to run against my father-in-law

[burr]
i changed parties to seize the opportunity i saw
i swear your pride will be the death of us all
beware, it goeth before the fall
