Workshop Cast - Schuyler Defeated | Текст песни


PHILIP:
Look- grandpa’s in the paper!
War hero Philip Schuyler in danger of losing senate to young upstart Aaron Burr?
Grandpa might lose his seat in the senate

ELIZA:
I thought he was unopposed?

PHILIP:
Not according to the paper he isn’t!

ELIZA:
Go make sure the door is closed

PHILIP (and ELIZA):
Further down, (further down,)
see Schuyler has a challenger from New York,
(New York) for senator … Burr!

ELIZA:
I gotta go I gotta find Alexander

PHILIP:
Let him know we’re on his side

ELIZA:
No! He’ll consider this a personal slander-
I’ve gotta stop a homicide!

PHILIP:
Oh!

ELIZA (and PHILIP):
Look around, we should look around
let’s go and find your father down in New York
(New York)

HAMILTON:
Burr! Since when are you a Democratic-Republican?

BURR:
Since being one put me on the up and up again

HAMILTON:
No one know who you are or what you do

BURR:
They don’t need to know me, they don’t like you

HAMILTON:
Excuse me?

BURR:
Oh, Wall-street thinks you’re great, you’ll always be adored by the things you create
but upstate you’re the rascal who trades away the capital

HAMILTON:
Wait-

BURR:
The asshole who taxes the alcohol!

HAMILTON:
I always considered you a friend.

BURR:
I don’t see why that has to end
A senate seat was up for grabs and I took it
It’s not my fault people think you’re crooked

HAMILTON:
You’re gonna make a fool of me through my father in law?

BURR:
Ah- there’s the kid who almost shot Charles Lee in the jaw
My god, your pride will be the death of us all
beware, it goeth before the fall!

ELIZA:
Alexander, there you are

HAMILTON:
Eliza?

ELIZA:
You forgot your papers.
Mister Burr, good sir, it’s been so long
How are the Theodosias?

BURR:
As a matter of fact, my wife has taken ill

ELIZA:
I’m not surprised, what with the chill
You’ll send her our regards

BURR:
I will.

ELIZA:
And how’s your daughter?

BURR:
She’s my pride and joy,
fluent in French- and Latin!

PHILIP:
So am I!

BURR:
She’s the same age as your boy

HAMILTON:
Yeah, one day he’ll run Manhattan

ELIZA (overlapping):
We must be going, Burr
but send your girls our love

BURR:
Nice to meet your son

HAMILTON:
We’re not done, mister Burr, sir

ELIZA:
Hon!

BURR:
If I were you I’d stick with her, sir.

HAMILTON:
What in the hell was that?
What in the hell are you doing downtown?
Don’t you know that Burr’s gonna run against your father
to humiliate me and try to bring us down?
I will not let our family be embarrassed like this
I’ll grab a pen and paper let the whole world know
You swing at my family you better not miss
You better have another punch to throw!

ELIZA:
You could let it go
Stay alive for me
Let it go, live to fight another day
People will always be critical
or make the personal political
They’re tryna knock you off your pedestal, your pinnacle
let other people be cynical- let it go!
You’re smiling because you know I’m right

HAMILTON:
Ha!

ELIZA:
And you know if the president were here he’d tell you the same thing

HAMILTON:
No, the president’s not here

WASHINGTON:
I heard about Burr
You didn’t kill him, did you?

HAMILTON:
Were you here this whole time?

WASHINGTON
Let it go, stay alive for me

ELIZA (and WASHINGTON):
Let it go, let it slide right by (let it slide right by)
You don’t have to bring a gun to a knife-fight
It’s not a case of your money or your life, right?

WASHINGTON:
You know you really oughta listen to your wife, right?

HAMILTON:
I know…

WASHINGTON:
So let it go…

BURR (and COMPANY):
Talk less (Burr!)
Smile more! (Burr!)
Don’t let them know what you’re against or what you’re for (Burr!)
Shake hands with him (Burr!)
Charm her! (Burr!)
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome senator Aaron Burr

WASHINGTON:
Let everybody know you can take a body blow
Let everybody know you can learn to let it go

ELIZA (and WASHINGTON):
Let everybody know you can take a body blow
Look around, look around, how lucky you are to be alive right now
If somebody tries to lay you low
Let it go
