(《 亚历山大·汉米尔顿》音乐剧插曲)

  • (《 亚历山大·汉米尔顿》音乐剧插曲)
  • Ladies and gentlemen you coulda been anywhere in the world tonight
  • but you're here with us in New York city
  • Are you ready for a cabinet meeting
  • The issue on the table Secretary Hamilton's plan to assume state debt
  • and establish a national bank Secretary Jefferson you have the floor sir
  • 'Life liberty and the pursuit of happiness'
  • We fought for these ideals we shouldn't settle for less
  • These are wise words enterprising men quote 'em
  • Don't act surprised you guys cuz I wrote 'em
  • Oww
  • But Hamilton forgets
  • His plan would have the government assume state's debts
  • Now place your bets as to who that benefits
  • The very seat of government where Hamilton sits
  • Not true
  • Ooh if the shoe fits wear it
  • If New York's in debt
  • Why should Virginia bear it uh our debts are paid I'm afraid
  • Don't tax the South cuz we got it made in the shade
  • In Virginia we plant seeds in the ground
  • We create you just wanna move our money around
  • This financial plan is an outrageous demand
  • And it's too many damn pages for any man to understand
  • Stand with me in the land of the free
  • And pray to God we never see Hamilton's candidacy
  • Look when Britain taxed our tea we got frisky
  • Imagine what gon' happen when you try to tax our whisky
  • Thank you Secretary Jefferson Secretary Hamilton your response
  • Thomas That was a real nice declaration
  • Welcome to the present we're running a real nation
  • Would you like to join us or stay mellow
  • Doin' whatever the hell it is you do in Monticello
  • If we assume the debts the union gets
  • A new line of credit a financial diuretic
  • How do you not get it
  • If we're aggressive and competitive
  • The union gets a boost
  • You'd rather give it a sedative
  • A civics lesson from a slaver hey neighbor
  • Your debts are paid cuz you don't pay for labor
  • We plant seeds in the South we create
  • Yeah keep ranting
  • We know who's really doing the planting
  • And another thing Mr. Age of Enlightenment
  • Don't lecture me about the war you didn't fight in it
  • You think I'm frightened of you man
  • We almost died in a trench
  • While you were off getting high with the French
  • Thomas Jefferson always hesitant with the President
  • Reticent there isn't a plan he doesn't jettison
  • Madison you're mad as a hatter son take your medicine
  • Damn you're in worse shape than the national debt is in
  • Sittin' there useless as two shits
  • Hey turn around bend over I'll show you
  • Where my shoe fits
  • Excuse me Jefferson Madison take a walk Hamilton take a walk
  • We'll reconvene after a brief recess Hamilton
  • Sir
  • A word
  • You don't have the votes
  • You don't have the votes
  • Aha-ha-ha ha
  • You're gonna need congressional approval and you don't have the votes
  • Such a blunder sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder
  • Why he even brings the thunder
  • You wanna pull yourself together
  • I'm sorry these Virginians are birds of a feather
  • Young man I'm from Virginia so watch your mouth
  • So we let Congress get held hostage by the South
  • You need the votes
  • No we need bold strokes
  • We need this plan
  • No you need to convince more folks
  • James Madison won't talk to me that's a nonstarter
  • Winning was easy young man
  • Governing's harder
  • They're being intransigent
  • You have to find a compromise
  • But they don't have a plan they just hate mine
  • Convince them otherwise
  • What happens if I don't get congressional approval
  • I imagine they'll call for your removal
  • Sir
  • Figure it out Alexander
  • That's an order from your commander
