[company]
british admiral howe’s got troops on the water
thirty-two thousand troops in new york harbor
thirty-two thousand troops in new york harbor
when they surround our troops!
they surround our troops!
they surround our troops!
(ding.)
[hamilton]
–an, i wished for a war
i knew that i was
[hamilton, slow motion]

[hamilton and washington]
rise up!
-slow inhale-
[hamilton]
i will fight for this land!
there’s only one–
who can rise up!

rise up! rise up!
here he comes!
[hamilton]
ladies and–
–of mount vernon!
general warshington!
[washington]
we are outgunned!
gotta make an all out stand
ayo, i’m gonna need a right hand man!
check it–
can i be real a second?
for just a millisecond?
let down my guard and tell the people how i feel a second?
now i’m the model of a modern major general
the venerated virginian veteran whose men are all
[washington (hamilton and washington)]
lining up, to put me up on a (pedestal)
(writin’ letters to relatives)
(embellishin’) my (elegance and eloquence)
[washington (hamilton)]
but– (brrah!)
[washington and hamilton]
the elephant is in the room!
the truth is in your face
when you hear the british cannons go
[both, slow motion]
boom!
[washington]
these are my hands!
[hamilton]
ohhh!
[soundtrack washington]
how can i keep leading when the–
[soundtrack washington, slo-mo]
…leading when the people–
[soundtrack washington]
i’m leading–
[washington and hamilton]
keep retreating!
-long, slow inhale-
[washington and hamilton]
we put a stop to the bleeding as the british take–
[hamilton]
brooklyn!
[washington and hamilton]
knight takes rook, but look
[washington and hamilton (ensemble)]
we are outgunned (what?)
outmanned (what?)
outnumbered
outplanned (buck, buck, buck, buck, buck!)
we gotta make an all out stand
heyo, i’m gonna need a right hand man!
(buck, buck, buck, buck, buck!)
[washington (hamilton)]
incoming! (incoming!)
[soundtrack hamilton]
they’re battering down the battery check the damages
[mulligan]
roar!
[soundtrack hamilton]
we gotta stop ‘em and rob ‘em of their advantages
[mulligan (hamilton)]
rawr xd! (rah!)
[soundtrack hamilton (mulligan)]
let’s take a stand with the stamina god has granted us (-blows raspberry-)
hamilton won’t abandon ship
yo, let’s steal their cannons—
[ensemble (hamilton)]
boom! (-blows intense raspberry-)
-explosion sound effect-
[recording washington]
watch the blood and the —- spray…
[both]
boom!
[soundtrack washington]
goes the cannon, we’re abandonin’ kips bay and…
-explosion sound effect-
[izzy (juliet)]
gotta run the harlem quick, we can’t afford another slip
(yeah!)
giddy up!
i decide (to divvy up)
my forces, they’re skittish as the british cuts the city up
this close to giving up, facing mad scrutiny
i scream in the face of this m-ss mutiny!
[washington]
are these the men with which i am to defend america?
we ride at midnight, manhattan in the distance
i cannot be everywhere at once, people!
i’m in dire need of -ssistance…
[soundtrack burr]
–captain under general montgomery (izzy gasps loudly.)
[izzy]
i didn’t see him!
[sountrack burr]
well, in summary…
[izzy]
i was putting the mask on and he–
[burr]
i admire how you keep fustance
[washington]
hm
[burr]
i have some questions a couple–
[burr]
–gestions on how to fight instead of fleeing west
[washington]

[hamilton]

[recording burr]

[washington]
no!
close the door on your way out
[hamilton]

beyond scary
your reputation proceeds you, but i have to laugh
oh my god, if you put on these sungl-sses and then–
[hamilton, slo-mo]
sir!
[hamilton]
she doesn’t even go here
[soundtrack washington]
when we were still downtown
nathaniel green and henry knox wanted to hire you…
[sountrack hamilton]
to be their secretary?
[hamilton]
i don’t think so
[washington]
then why are you upset?
[hamilton]
i’m not–
[washington]
it’s alright! you want to fight cleo
you’ve got a hunger
i was just like you when i was younger
[washington and hamilton]
head full of fantasies of–
[washington]
k!lling myself next wednesday?!
dying is easy, young man. living is harder
[hamilton]
why are you telling me this?
[washington]
i’m being honest
i’m working with a third of what our congress has promised!
…
[hamilton]
it’s not me!
[washington]
i need someone like you to lighten the load. so?
[ensemble]
i am not throwin’ away my shot!
[hamilton]

[hamilton]
you need all the help you can get
i have some friends. laurens, mulligan
marquis de lafayette, okay, what–
[ensemble]
outnumbered, outplanned!
[hamilton]
we’ll need some spies on the inside
some king’s men who might let some things slide
[hamilton (washington/girls)]
i’ll write to congress and tell ‘em we need supplies, you rally the guys, (whoa, whoa, whoa…)
master the element of surprise (shh-boom!)
i’ll rise above my station, organize your information
’til we rise to the occasion of our new nation. sir!
[ensemble]
here comes the general!
[hamilton]
rise up!
[ensemble]
here comes the general!
[hamilton]

and his right hand man!
[all]
boom!
[washington]
