Schuyler Defeated

Look, grandpa's in the paper

War hero Philip Schuyler loses senate seat to young upstart Aaron Burr

Grandpa just lost his seat in the Senate

Sometimes, that's how it goes

Daddy's gonna find out any minute

I'm sure he already knows

Further down

Further down

"Let's meet the newest Senator from New York..."

New York

Our Senator

Burr?

Since when are you a Democratic-Republican?

Since being one put me on the up and up again

No one knows who you are or what you do

They don't need to know me, they don't like you

Excuse me?

Oh, Wall Street thinks you're great

You'll always be adored by the things you create

But upstate

Wait

People think you're crooked!

And Schuyler's seat was up for grabs, so I took it

I've always considered you a friend

I don't see why that has to end

You changed parties to run against my father-in-law

I changed parties to seize the opportunity I saw

I swear, your pride will be the death of us all!

Beware: it goeth before the fall
