Loading...

[company]
1776, new york city

[hamilton]
pardon me. are you aaron burr, sir?

[burr]
that depends, who’s asking?

[hamilton]
oh, sure, sir
i’m alexander hamilton, i’m at your service, sir
i have been looking for you

[burr]
i’m getting nervous

[hamilton]
sir…
i heard your name at princeton. i was seeking an accelerated course of study when i got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours. i may have punched him. it’s a blur, sir. he handles the financials?

[burr]
you punched the bursar

[hamilton]
yes!
i wanted to do what you did. graduate in two, then join the revolution. he looked at me like i was stupid, i’m not stupid
so how’d you do it? how’d you graduate so fast?

[burr]
it was my parents’ dying wish before they p-ssed

[hamilton]
you’re an orphan. of course! i’m an orphan
god, i wish there was a war!
we could prove that we’re worth more
than anyone bargained for…

[burr]
can i buy you a drink?

[hamilton]
that would be nice

[burr]
while we’re talking, let me offer you some free advice
talk less

[hamilton]
heh, what?

[burr]
smile more

[hamilton]
ha

[burr]
don’t let them know what you’re against or what you’re for

[hamilton]
you can’t be serious

[burr]
you wanna get ahead?

[hamilton]
yes

[burr]
fools who run their mouths off wind up dead

[laurens]
yo yo yo yo yo!
yo yo yo yo yo!

[burr]
…like i said…

[laurens]
yo yo yo yo, i said
i’m john laurens in the place to be!
two pints o’ sam adams, and i’m workin’ on three, uh!
these redcoats don’t want it with me!
cuz i will pop chick-a pop these cops till i’m free!

[lafayette]
oui oui, mon ami, je m’appelle lafayette!
the lancelot of the revolutionary set!
i came from afar just to say “bonsoir!”
tell the king “c-sse toi!” who’s the best?
c’est moi!

[mulligan]
brrrah, brraaah! i am hercules mulligan
up in it, lovin’ it, yes i heard ya mother said

[lafayette & laurens]
“come again?”

[mulligan]
lock up ya daughters and horses, of course
it’s hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets…

[lafayette]
oh…

[laurens]
no more s-x, pour me another brew, son!
let’s raise a couple more…

[laurens/lafayette/mulligan]
to the revolution!

[laurens]
well, if it ain’t the prodigy of princeton college!

[mulligan]
aaron burr!

[laurens]
give us a verse, drop some knowledge!

[burr]
good luck with that: you’re takin’ a stand
you spit. i’m ‘a sit. we’ll see where we land

[lafayette/mulligan]
boooo!

[laurens]
burr, the revolution’s imminent. what do you stall for?

[hamilton]
if you stand for nothing, burr, what will you fall for?
