After the war, I went back to New York
A-after the war, I went back to New York
I finished up my studies, and I practiced law
I practiced law, Burr worked next door
Even though we started at the very same time
Alexander Hamilton began to climb
How to account for his rise to the top?
Man, the man is non-stop
Gentlemen of the jury, I'm curious, bear with me
Are you aware that we're making history?
This is the first murder trial of our brand-new nation
The liberty behind deliberation (non-stop)
I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt with my assistant counsel
Co-counsel Hamilton, sit down
Our client, Levi Weeks, is innocent
Call your first witness, that's all you had to say
Okay
One more thing
Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room? (Hey)
Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room? (Hey)
Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room? (Hey)
Soon that attitude may be your doom (aw!)
Why do you write like you're running out of time? (Hey)
Write day and night like you're running out of time? (Hey)
Every day you fight, like you're running out of time (hey)
Keep on fighting in the meantime (non-stop)
Corruption's such an old song that we can sing
Along in harmony, and nowhere is it stronger than in Albany
This colony's economy's increasingly stalling and
Honestly, that's why public service seems to be calling me (he's just non-stop)
I practiced the law, I practically perfected it
I've seen injustice in the world, and I've corrected it
Now for a strong central democracy
If not, then I'll be Socrates
Throwing verbal rocks at these mediocrities
Hamilton, at the Constitutional Convention
I was chosen for the Constitutional Convention
There as a New York junior delegate
Now, what I'm going to say may sound indelicate (aww!)
Goes and proposes his own form of government (what?)
His own plan for a new form of government (what?)
Talks for six hours, the convention is listless
Bright young man
Yo, who the f is this?
Why do you always say what you believe?
