[burr]

how does a b-st-rd, orphan, son of a wh-r- and a scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the caribbean by providence, impoverished, in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?

what’s your name man?

[hamilton]

alexander hamilton. my name is alexander hamilton
and there’s a million things i haven’t done, but just you wait, just you wait!
(just you wait!)

[company]
i am not throwing away my shot! (not throwing away my)
i am not throwing away my shot! (not throwing away my)
hey-yo i’m just like my country i’m young, scr-ppy and hungry and i’m not throwing away my shot! ( ever, ever)

[laurens & hamilton]
raise a gl-ss to the four of us! ( to the four of us)

[king george]

comes to shove, i will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love!
da da da da da-da! da, dada da da-yada, da da da dayyyya, da da da-da daaayada dada da-

[washington & ensemble]
we are outgunned! (what?)

hey yo, i’m gonna need a right-hand man!

[eliza & ensemble]

i look into your eyes and the sky’s the limit i’m helpless! ooh

[angelica & ensemble]
to your union! (to the union, to the revolution!)
and the hope that you provide! ( you provide, you provide,)
may you always! ( always)
be satisfied! (satisfied, satisfied)

[burr & ensemble]
life doesn’t discriminate, between the sinners and the saints, it takes and it takes and it takes and it takes!
(and we keep living anyway, we rise and we fall and we break and we make our mistakes)
we rise, and we fall!
and if there’s a reason i’m still alive when so many have died, then i’m willing to-

[burr & ensemble]
(one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!)
wait for it, wait for it, wait
(one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!)
wait for it, wait for it, wait
(it’s the ten duel commandments!)

[eliza]
oh! let me be a part of the narrative! of the story, they will write someday! let this moment be the first chapter, the moment you decide to stay! that would be enough-

[lafayette & company]
(lafayette!)
i’m taking this horse by the reins, making redcoats redder with bloodstains!
(lafayette!)
and i’m never gonna stop until i make ‘em drop and burn ‘em up and scatter the remains i’m
(lafayette!)
watch me engagin’ ‘em, escapin’ ‘em, enragin’ ‘em! i’m
(lafayette!)
i go to france for more funds, i come back with more guns, and ships!

[washington]
(alexander hamilton, alexander hamilton)

[ensemble]

[eliza & angelica]

(satisfied, satisfied)

[washington]

[burr]
why do you -ssume you’re the smartest in the room? why do you -ssume you’re the smartest in the room? why do you -ssume you’re the smartest in the room?
soon that att-tude may be your doom!

[hamilton]
thomas, that was a real nice declaration, welcome to the present we’re running a real nation, would you like to join us, or stay mellow doing whatever the h-ll it is you do in monticello?

[eliza & angelica]
take a break and get away
(run away with us for the summer let’s go upstate)
let’s go upstate where we can stay!
(we can all go stay with our father if you take your time, you will make your mark!)
look around, look around! at how lucky we are to be alive right now! (close your eyes and dream,) you and i can go when the light gets dark!

[eliza & angelica]
don’t say no!

[hamilton and maria]
(woah!)
show me how to say no this, how can i say no to this? there is nowhere i can go!
(helpless!) when her body’s on mine i do not say no!
(hey)[?]

[burr & ensemble]
(no) one else was in the room where it happened, the room where it happened, the room where it happened
my god! in god we trust, but we’ll never really know what got discussed
click- boom! then it happened! but no one else was in the room where it happened
(ba-pa-pa-badow -badoow!)

[jefferson][(madison & burr)]
it must be nice, it must be nice, to have washington on your side!
( to have washington on your side )x4

[washington & ensemble]
(george washington’s going home!)
history has its eyes on you!
(going home!)

[burr & hamilton]
we both know what we know! ( i’ll write my way out!)

[jefferson & madison & burr]
alexander hamilton has a torrid affair and he wrote it down right there!

[madison]
highlights!

[angelica & eliza]
i know my sister like i know my own mind, you will never find anyone as trusting or as kind!
(i’m erasing myself from the narrative!)
i love my sister more than anything in this life, i will choose her happiness over mine, every time!
(let future historians wonder how eliza reacted when you broke her heart!)
put what we had aside, i’m standing at her side, you could never be satisfied, god i hope you’re satisfied! (watching it burn!){?}

[eliza & company]
it’s quiet uptown…
{forgiveness, can you imagine? forgiveness, can you imagine? if you see him in the street, walking by her side, talking by her side, have pity…
they are going through the unimaginable)

[burr & hamilton]
now i’m the villain in your history. (i imagine death so much it feels more like a memory)
[eliza]{?}
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

[burr & hamilton]
i was too young and blind to see… (this is where it gets me.)
i should’ve known (i’ve got to throw away my shot

[eliza and hamilton]
