The Schuyler Sisters [Angelica, Eliza, Peggy, Burr]
There's nothing rich folks love more Than going downtown and slummin' it with the poor They pull up in their characters and gawk at the students in their common just to watch them talk Take Phillip Schuyler the man is loaded uh oh but little does he know that his daughters peggy angelica eliza stalk through the city just to watch all the guys
(Work! Work!) Angelica, Eliza, and Peggy! The Schuyler sisters Angelica, Peggy, Eliza! Work!
Daddy said to be home by sundown Daddy doesn't need to know Daddy said not to go downtown Like, I said you're free to go, but look around, look around the revolution's happening in New York (Angelica, Work!)
It's bad enough that he wants to go to war People were shouting in the square It's bad enough there'll be violence on our shore New ideas in the air Look around, look around, Angelica remind me what we're looking for? (She's looking for me!) Eliza, I'm looking a mind and work I'm looking for a mind and work I'm looking for a mind and work Woah woah woah woah work!
Woo! There's nothing like summer in the city Someone in a rush next to someone looking pretty Excuse me miss, I know it's not funny, but your perfume smells like your daddy's got money but you're slummin' in the city with your fancy heels you're searching for an urchin that will feed you ideals
Burr, you disgust me...
Ah, so you discuss me? I'm a trust fund baby, you can trust me
I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine Some may say that I'm intent to run insane You want a revolution? I want a revelation! So, listen to my declaration: \"We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal\" And when I meet Thomas Jefferson I will compel him to include women in the sequel, work!
Look around, look around, at how lucky we are to be alive right now Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in world! In the greatest city in the world!
