Ah Mister Secretary
- Ah Mister Secretary
- Mister Burr sir
- Didja hear the news about good old General Mercer
- No
- You know Clermont Street
- Yeah
- They renamed it after him The Mercer legacy is secure
- Sure
- And all he had to do was die
- That's a lot less work
- We oughta give it a try
- Ha
- Now how're you gonna get your debt plan through
- I guess I'm gonna fin'ly have to listen to you
- Really
- Talk less Smile more
- Ha
- Do whatever it takes to get my plan on the Congress floor
- Now Madison and Jefferson are merciless
- Well hate the sin love the sinner
- Hamilton
- I'm sorry Burr I've gotta go
- But
- Decisions are happening over dinner
- Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
- Diametric'ly opposed foes
- They emerge with a compromise having opened doors that were
- Previously closed
- Bros
- The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
- A system he can shape however he wants
- The Virginians emerge with the nation's capital
- And here's the pièce de résistance
- No one else was in
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- No one else was in
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- No one really knows how the game is played
- The art of the trade
- How the sausage gets made
- We just assume that it happens
- But no one else is in
- The room where it happens
- Thomas claims
- Alexander was on Washington's doorstep one day
- In distress 'n disarray
- Thomas claims
- Alexander said
- I've nowhere else to turn
- And basic'ly begged me to join the fray
- Thomas claims
- I approached Madison and said
- I know you hate 'im but let's hear what he has to say
- Thomas claims
- Well I arranged the meeting
- I arranged the menu the venue the seating
- But
- No one else was in
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- No one else was in
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- No one really knows how the
- Parties get to yesssss
- The pieces that are sacrificed in
- Ev'ry game of chesssss
- We just assume that it happens
- But no one else is in
- The room where it happens
- Meanwhile
- Madison is grappling with the fact that not ev'ry issue can be settled by committee
- Meanwhile
- Congress is fighting over where to put the capital
- It isn't pretty
- Then Jefferson approaches with a dinner and invite
- And Madison responds with Virginian insight
- Maybe we can solve one problem with another
- And win a victory for the Southerners in other words
- Oh ho
- A quid pro quo
- I suppose
- Wouldn't you like to work a little closer to home
- Actually I would
- Well I propose the Potomac
- And you'll provide him his votes
- Well we'll see how it goes
- Let's go
- No
- One else was in
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- No one else was in
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- The room where it happened
- My God
- In God we trust
- But we'll never really know what got discussed
- Click boom then it happened
- And no one else was in the room where it happened
- Alexander Hamilton
- What did they say to you to get you to sell New York City down the river
- Alexander Hamilton
- Did Washington know about the dinner
- Was there Presidential pressure to deliver
- Alexander Hamilton
- Or did you know even then it doesn't matter
- Where you put the U S Capital
- Cuz we'll have the banks
- We're in the same spot
- You got more than you gave
- And I wanted what I got
- When you got skin in the game you stay in the game
- But you don't get a win unless you play in the game
- Oh you get love for it You get hate for it
- You get nothing if you
- Wait for it wait for it wait
- God help and forgive me
- I wanna build
- Something that's gonna
- Outlive me
- What do you want Burr

- I've got to be The room where it happens
- In that room The room where it happens
- In that big ol' room
- The art of the compromise
- Hold your nose and close your eyes
- We want our leaders to save the day
- But we don't get a say in what they trade away
- We dream of a brand new start
- But we dream in the dark for the most part
- Dark as a tomb where it happens
- I've got to be in
- The room The room where it happens
- I've got to be in the room where it happens
- I've got to be in the room where it happens
- Oh I've got to be in The room where it happens
