lin-manuel miranda - button! lyrics
[john adams]
barmaid, one ale if it’s not too much bother
pay attention! did i mention i’m a founding father?
don’t try to front me, i won’t play that, madam
i’m a founder of this country and my name’s john adams
[b-tton gwinnett]
i knew it was you, my boy johnny ace
has it really been since philly since i’ve seen your face?
[adams]
thank you very much, always nice to meet a fan
[gwinnett]
hold on a second, adams, you know who i am
it’s me b-tton gwinnett, i don’t need a citation
cause we met tête-à-tête when we signed the declaration
big-wig style, how could you forget?
i’m your brother founding father, big b gwinnett!
[adams]
sorry, didn’t hear, can you repeat that name?
was it bilbo gimlet, what’s your claim to fame?
i don’t remember any hobbits on the signature roster
you say you’re a founder but you look like a loster
[gwinnett]
what?! what!
you can call me gwinnett, you can call me b-tton
all the shorties call me over when they see me struttin’
i’m a patriotic player, i don’t need to cajole
i got the lady-folks unb-ttoning their b-tton hole
yeah, ask abigail, she knows
[adams]
i’m john frickin’ adams, come on, show respect
i ain’t never heard of no buster named b-tton gwinnett!
i’m the o.g.v.p. and i know every signer
from hanc-ck in boston to lynch in carolina
[gwinnett]
it’s a mystery why you’re p-ssed at me
but b-tton gwinnett will make history
i’m a glutton for attention so don’t you forget
tell him my name:
[audience]
b-tton gwinnett!
[gwinnett]
what’s my name?
[audience]
b-tton gwinnett!
[gwinnett]
what’s my name?
[audience]
b-tton gwinnett!
[gwinnett]
what’s my name?
[audience]
b-tton gwinnett!
[stephen colbert]
his name is lin-manuel miranda!
hamilton is running now on broadway!
the original cast alb-m is available wherever music is sold!
we’ll be right back!
[gwinnett]
what’s my name?
[audience]
b-tton gwinnett!
[lin-manuel miranda]
[beat-boxing]
[gwinnett]
what’s my name?
[audience]
b-tton gwinnett!
[miranda]
yeah, i’m b-tton gwinnett
don’t you ever forget
and when we tête-à-tête
i’m b-tton, i’m frontin’
i don’t use my name
i’ll just keep free-stylin’
’til we’re don’ with it!
