The Election of 1800

But if you had to choose

Dear Mr. Hamilton

John Adams doesn't stand a chance, so who are you promoting?

But if you had to choose

Well, if it isn't Aaron Burr, sir

Alexander!

You've created quite a stir, sir

I'm going door to door

You're openly campaigning?

Sure!

That's new

Honestly, it's kind of draining

Burr

Sir

Is there anything you wouldn't do?

No, I'm chasing what I want

And you know what?

What?

I learned that from you

If you had to choose

If you had to choose

(It's a tie!)

If you had to choose

If you had to choose

(It's up to the delegates!)

If you had to choose

If you had to choose

(It's up to Hamilton!)

If you had to choose

Jefferson or Burr? (Jefferson or Burr)

Choose, choose, choose

Yo (oh!)

The people are asking to hear my voice (oh!)

For the country is facing a difficult choice (oh!)

And if you were to ask me who I'd promote (oh!)

Jefferson has my vote (oh!)

I had never agreed with Jefferson once (oh!)

We have fought on like 75 diff'rent fronts (oh!)

But when all is said and all is done

Jefferson has beliefs, Burr has none (ooh!)

Well, I'll be damned

Well, I'll be damned

Hamilton's on your side

Well, I'll be damned

Well, I'll be damned

And?

You won in a landslide

Congrats on a race well-run

I did give you a fight (uh-huh)

I look forward to our partnership

Our partnership?

As your Vice President

Haha, yeah, right!

You hear this guy? Man openly campaigns against me

Talkin' bout, "I look forward to our partnership"

It is crazy that the guy who comes in second becomes Vice President

Ooh! You know what? We can change that! You know why?

Why?

'Cause I'm the President

Burr, when you see Hamilton, thank him for the endorsement
