New York City
Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir?
That depends, who's asking?
Oh, sure, sir
I'm Alexander Hamilton, I'm at your service, sir
I have been looking for you
I'm getting nervous
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?
You punched the bursar
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?
It was my parents' dying wish before they passed
You're an orphan, of course, I'm an orphan
God, I wish there was a war
Then we could prove that we're worth more
Than anyone bargained for
Can I buy you a drink?
That would be nice
While we're talking, let me offer you some free advice
Talk less
What?
Smile more
Ha
Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for
You can't be serious
You wanna get ahead?
Yes
Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead
Ah, yo, yo, yo, yo, what time is it?
Showtime!
Like I said
Showtime, showtime, yo
I'm John Laurens in the place to be
Two pints of Sam Adams, but I'm workin' on three
Those redcoats don't want it with me
'Cause I will pop, chicka pop these cops 'til I'm free
Oui, oui, mon ami, je m'appelle Lafayette
The Lancelot of the revolutionary set
I came from afar just to say "bonsoir"
To the king, casse-toi, who is the best? C'est moi
Brrah, brrah, I am Hercules Mulligan
Up in it, lovin' it, yes, I heard your mother said "Come again"
Lock up your daughters and horses
Of course it's hard to have intercourse
Over faucets or corsets, no more sex
Pour me another brew, son
Let's raise a couple more to the revolution
Well, if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton College
Aaron Burr
Give us a verse, drop some knowledge
Good luck with that, you're takin' a stand
You spit, I'ma sit, we'll see where we land
Burr, the revolution's imminent, what do you stall for?
If you stand for nothing, Burr, what'll you fall for?
Ooh, who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Ooh, who is this kid, what's he gonna do?
