Lyrics
[MADISON]
Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned
Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain
Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain
And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain
[BURR]
Well, the word got around, they said, This kid is insane, man
Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland
Get your education, dont forget from whence you came, and
The world is gonna know your name. Whats your name, man?
[HAMILTON]
Alexander Hamilton
My name is Alexander Hamilton
And theres a million things I havent done
But just you wait, just you wait...
[ELIZA]
When he was ten his father split, full of it, debt-ridden
Two years later, see Alex and his mother bed-ridden
Half-dead sittin' in their own sick, the scent thick
[COMPANY]
And Alex got better but his mother went quick
[WASHINGTON]
Moved in with a cousin, the cousin committed suicide
Left him with nothin but ruined pride, something new inside
A voice saying
Alex, you gotta fend for yourself.
He started retreatin and readin every treatise on the shelf
[BURR]
There would have been nothin left to do
For someone less astute
He woulda been dead or destitute
Without a cent of restitution
Started workin, clerkin for his late mothers landlord
Tradin sugar cane and rum and all the things he cant afford
Scammin for every book he can get his hands on
Plannin for the future see him now as he stands on
The bow of a ship headed for a new land
In New York you can be a new man
[COMPANY]
In New York you can
Be a new man
[HAMILTON]
Just you wait!
[COMPANY]
In New York you can be a new man
[WOMEN]
In New York
[HAMILTON]
Just you wait!
[COMPANY]
Alexander Hamilton
[MEN]
New York
[COMPANY]
Alexander Hamilton
[BURR]
The ship is in the harbour now
See if you can spot him
[MEN]
Just you wait
Another immigrant
Comin up from the bottom
[COMPANY]
Just you wait
[COMPANY]
Theres a million things I havent done
But just you wait!
[BURR]
Whats your name, man?
[COMPANY]
Alexander Hamilton!
Instrumental 12 bars
Come on, babe, why don't we paint the town?
And all that jazz
I'm gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings
down
And all that jazz
Start the car, I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold, but the piano's hot
It's just a noisy hall where there's a nightly
brawl
And all...that...jazz
No, I'm no one's wife, but
Oh, I love my life
And all
That
Jazz!
That jazz!
The Bare Necessities The Jungle Book
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
Burn Hamilton
I saved every letter you wrote me
From the moment I read them
I knew you were mine
You said you were mine
I thought you were mine
Do you know what Angelica said
When we saw your first letter arrive?
She said
Be careful with that one, love
He will do what it takes to survive.
You and your words flooded my senses
Your sentences left me defenseless
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
You built cathedrals
Im re-reading the letters you wrote me
Im searching and scanning for answers
In every line
For some kind of sign
And when you were mine
The world seemed to
Burn
Burn

[BURR]
Ill be around for you.

Ill do whatever it takes
[BURR]
Ill make a million mistakes
[BURR/HAMILTON]
Ill make the world safe and sound for you

Well bleed and fight for you, well make it right for you
If we lay a strong enough foundation
Well pass it on to you, well give the world to you
And youll blow us all away...
Someday, someday
Yeah, youll blow us all away
Someday, someday
Defying Gravity Wicked
[Elphaba]
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts, close my eyes, and leap...

Eliza, I dont have a dollar to my name
An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
All I haves my honor, a tolerance for pain
A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me
No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
Well get a little place in Harlem and well figure it out
Ive been livin without a family since I was a child
My father left, my mother died, I grew up buck wild
But Ill never forget my mothers face, that was real
And long as Im alive, Eliza, swear to God

History Has Its Eyes On You - Hamilton
[WASHINGTON]
I was younger than you are now
When I was given my first command
I led my men straight into a massacre
I witnessed their deaths firsthand
I made every mistake
And felt the shame rise in me
And even now I lie awake
[WASHINGTON]
Knowing history has its eyes on me
[HAMILTON/WASHINGTON]
History has its eyes on me.

I know that greatness lies in you
But remember from here on in

Hurricane - Hamilton
[HAMILTON]
In the eye of a hurricane
There is quiet
For just a moment
A yellow sky
When I was seventeen a hurricane
Destroyed my town
I didnt drown
I couldnt seem to die
I wrote my way out
Wrote everything down far as I could see
I wrote my way out
I looked up and the town had its eyes on me
They passed a plate around
Total strangers
Moved to kindness by my story
Raised enough for me to book passage on a
Ship that was New York bound
I wrote my way out of hell
I wrote my way to revolution
I was louder than the crack in the bell
I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell
I wrote about The Constitution and defended it well
And in the face of ignorance and resistance
I wrote financial systems into existence
And when my prayers to God were met with indifference
I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance
In the eye of a hurricane
There is quiet
For just a moment
A yellow sky
I was twelve when my mother died
She was holding me
We were sick and she was holding me
I couldnt seem to die
[BURR]
Wait for it, wait for it, wait for
it
[HAMILTON]
Ill write my way out

[Florence]
I know him so well
[Svetlana]
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide
[Svetlana & (Florence)]
Looking back, I could have played it differently
Won a few more moments, who can tell? (I was just a little careless)
But I was ever so much younger then (Maybe but now at least I know him well)
Now at least I know I know him well (I know him well.)
[Svetlana & (Florence)]
Wasn't it good? (Oh so good.)
Wasn't he fine? (Oh, so fine.)
Isn't it madness?
[Both]
He won't be mine?
Didn't I know
How it would go?
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart?
[Svetlana]
Wasn't it good?
Wasn't he fine?
[Florence]
Isn't it madness?
[Both]
He won't be mine?
[Florence]
But in the end he needs
A little bit more than me-More security
[Svetlana]
He needs his fantasy
And freedom

I know him so well
[Svetlana]
It took time to understand him

I know him so well
I Wanna Be Like You The Jungle Book
Now I'm the king of the swingers
Oh, the jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what botherin' me
I wanna be a man, mancub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around!
Oh, oobee doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too
You'll see it's true
An ape like me
Can learn to be human too
Now don't try to kid me, mancub
I made a deal with you
What I desire is man's red fire
So I can be like you.
Give me the secret, mancub
Clue me what to do
Give me the power of man's red flower
And make my dream come true.
Oh, ooo-be-doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna talk like you
Walk like you, too
You'll see it's true
Someone like me
Can learn to be
Like someone like me
Can learn to be
Like someone like you
Can learn to be
Like someone like me!

[THENARDIER]
Welcome, Monsieur, sit yourself down
And meet the best innkeeper in town
As for the rest, all of 'em crooks
Rooking their guests and cooking the books
Seldom do you see
Honest men like me
A gent of good intent
Who's content to be
Master of the house, doling out the charm
Ready with a handshake and an open palm
Tells a saucy tale, makes a little stir
Customers appreciate a bon-viveur
Glad to do a friend a favor, doesn't cost me to be nice
But nothing gets you nothing, everything has got a little price!
Master of the house, keeper of the zoo
Ready to relieve 'em of a sou or two
Watering the wine, making up the weight
Pickin' up their knick-knacks when they can't see straight
Everybody loves a landlord
Everybody's bosom friend
I do whatever pleases
Jesus! Won't I bleed 'em in the end!
[EVERYONE]
Master of the house, quick to catch your eye
Never wants a passerby to pass him by
Servant to the poor, butler to the great
Comforter, philosopher, and lifelong mate!
Everybody's boon companion
Everybody's chaperone
[THENARDIER]
But lock up your valises
Jesus! Won't I skin you to the bone!
Enter Monsieur, lay down your load
Unlace your boots, rest from the road
This weighs a ton, travel's a curse
But here we strive to lighten your purse
Here the goose is cooked
Here the fat is fried
And nothing's overlooked
Till I'm satisfied
Food beyond compare, food beyond belief
Mix it in a mincer and pretend it's beef

My Shot - Hamilton
[HAMILTON]
I am not throwing away my shot!
I am not throwing away my shot!
Hey yo, Im just like my country
Im young, scrappy and hungry
And Im not throwing away my shot!
Im a get a scholarship to Kings College
I probly shouldnt brag, but dag, I amaze and astonish
The problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish
I gotta holler just to be heard
With every word, I drop knowledge!
Im a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal
Tryin to reach my goal. My power of speech: unimpeachable
Only nineteen but my mind is older
These New York City streets get colder, I shoulder
Evry burden, evry disadvantage
I have learned to manage, I dont have a gun to brandish
I walk these streets famished
The plan is to fan this spark into a flame
But damn, its getting dark, so let me spell out the name
I am the

But well never be truly free
Until those in bondage have the same rights as you and me
You and I. Do or die. Wait till I sally in
On a stallion with the first black battalion
Have another
[HAMILTON/LAURENS/LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN]
Shot!
[BURR]
Geniuses, lower your voices
You keep out of trouble and you double your choices
Im with you, but the situation is fraught
Youve got to be carefully taught:
If you talk, youre gonna get shot!
[HAMILTON]
Burr, check what we got
Mister Lafayette, hard rock like Lancelot
I think your pants look hot
Laurens, I like you a lot
Lets hatch a plot blacker than the kettle callin the pot...
What are the odds the gods would put us all in one spot
Poppin a squat on conventional wisdom, like it or not
A bunch of revolutionary manumission abolitionists?
Give me a position, show me where the ammunition is!
Oh, am I talkin too loud?
Sometimes I get over excited, shoot off at the mouth
I never had a group of friends before
I promise that Ill make yall proud
[LAURENS]
Lets get this guy in front of a crowd
[HAMILTON/LAURENS/LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/ENSEMBLE]

I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
Whens it gonna get me?
In my sleep? Seven feet ahead of me?
If I see it comin, do I run or do I let it be?
Is it like a beat without a melody?
See, I never thought Id live past twenty
Where I come from some get half as many
Ask anybody why we livin fast and we laugh, reach for a flask
We have to make this moment last, thats plenty
Scratch that
This is not a moment, its the movement
Where all the hungriest brothers with
Something to prove went?
Foes oppose us, we take an honest stand
We roll like Moses, claimin our promised land
And? If we win our independence?
Is that a guarantee of freedom for our descendants?

Ill write under a pseudonym, youll see what I can do to him

I need you to draft an address

Yes! He resigned. You can finally speak your mind

No, hes stepping down so he can run for President

Im stepping down. Im not running for President

Im sorry, what?

Relax, have a drink with me

To say goodbye

No, sir, why?

I wanna talk about neutrality

Sir, with Britain and France on the verge of war, is this the best time
[WASHINGTON]
I want to warn against partisan fighting
[HAMILTON]
But
[WASHINGTON]
Pick up a pen, start writing
I wanna talk about what I have learned
The hard-won wisdom I have earned
[HAMILTON]
As far as the people are concerned
You have to serve, you could continue to serve
[WASHINGTON]
No! One last time
The people will hear from me
One last time
And if we get this right
Were gonna teach em how to say
Goodbye
You and I
[HAMILTON]
Mr. President, they will say youre weak
[WASHINGTON]
No, they will see were strong
[HAMILTON]
Your position is so unique
[WASHINGTON]
So Ill use it to move them along
[HAMILTON]
Why do you have to say goodbye?
[WASHINGTON]
If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move on
It outlives me when Im gone
Like the scripture says:
Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree
And no one shall make them afraid.
Theyll be safe in the nation weve made
I wanna sit under my own vine and fig tree
A moment alone in the shade
At home in this nation weve made

We're gonna make you popular
When I see depressing creatures
With unprepossessing features
I remind them on their own behalf
To think of
Celebrated heads of state or
Especially great communicators
Did they have brains or knowledge?
Don't make me laugh!
They were popular! Please, it's all about popular
It's not about aptitude, it's the way you're viewed
So it's very shrewd to be
Very very popular like me
And though you protest your disinterest
I know clandestinely
You're gonna grin and bear it: your newfound popularity
La la, la la
You'll be popular
Just not as quite as popular as me!

There are moments that the words dont reach

You hold your child as tight as you can
And push away the unimaginable
The moments when youre in so deep
It feels easier to just swim down

The Hamiltons move uptown
And learn to live with the unimaginable

I spend hours in the garden
I walk alone to the store

I never liked the quiet before
I take the children to church on Sunday
A sign of the cross at the door
And I pray
That never used to happen before

Wheres your famly from?
54
[HAMILTON]
Unimportant. Theres a million things I havent done but
Just you wait, just you wait
[ANGELICA]
So so so
So this is what it feels like to match wits
With someone at your level! What the hell is the catch? Its
The feeling of freedom, of seein the light
Its Ben Franklin with a key and a kite! You see it, right?
The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes
Evrything we said in total agreement, its
A dream and its a bit of a dance
A bit of a posture, its a bit of a stance. Hes a
Bit of a flirt, but Im a give it a chance
I asked about his famly, did you see his answer?
His hands started fidgeting, he looked askance?
Hes penniless, hes flying by the seat of his pants
Handsome, boy, does he know it!
Peach fuzz, and he cant even grow it!
I wanna take him far away from this place
Then I turn and see my sisters face and she is
[ELIZA]
Helpless
[ANGELICA]
And I know she is
[ELIZA]
Helpless
[ANGELICA]
And her eyes are just

Then we made our true love vow

[MADISON]

Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
Previously closed
[ENSEMBLE]
Bros
BURR
The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
A system he can shape however he wants
The Virginians emerge with the nations capital
And heres the pice de rsistance:
[BURR]
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.
[BURR AND COMPANY]
Thomas claims
[JEFFERSON]
Alexander was on Washingtons doorstep one day
In distress n disarray
[BURR AND COMPANY]
Thomas claims
[JEFFERSON]
Alexander said
[HAMILTON]
Ive nowhere else to turn!
[JEFFERSON]
And basicly begged me to join the fray
[BURR AND COMPANY]
Thomas claims
[JEFFERSON]
I approached Madison and said
71
[ENSEMBLE]
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
Game is played
How the sausage gets made
Assume that it happens
The room where it happens.
I know you hate him, but lets hear what he has to say.
[BURR AND COMPANY]
Thomas claims
[JEFFERSON]
Well, I arranged the meeting
I arranged the menu, the venue, the seating
[BURR]
But!

The pieces that are sacrificed in
Evry game of chesssss
We just assume that it happens
But no one else is in
The room where it happens.

Parties get to yesssss

In God we trust
But well never really know what got discussed

And no one else was in the room where it happened
[COMPANY]
Alexander Hamilton!
[BURR]
What did they say to you to get you to sell New York City down the river?
[COMPANY]
Alexander Hamilton!
[BURR]
Did Washington know about the dinner?
Was there Presidential pressure to deliver?
[COMPANY]
Alexander Hamilton!
[BURR]
Or did you know, even then, it doesnt matter
Where you put the U.S. Capital?
[HAMILTON]
Cuz well have the banks
Were in the same spot
[BURR]
You got more than you gave
[HAMILTON]
And I wanted what I got
When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
But you dont 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
[HAMILTON AND COMPANY]
Wait for it, wait for it, wait!

[BURR]
Hold your nose and close your eyes
[COMPANY]
We want our leaders to save the day
[BURR]
But we dont get a say in what they trade away
75
[COMPANY]
We dream of a brand new start
[BURR]
But we dream in the dark for the most part
[BURR AND COMPANY]
Dark as a tomb where it happens
[BURR]
Ive got to be in

Oh, Ive got to be in
The room where it happens

In the room!
Click-boom!
76
[COMPANY]
The room where it happens
It's so dreamy
Oh fantasy free me
So you can't see me
No not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intension
Well secluded
I'll see all
With a bit of a mind flip
You're into the time slip
And nothing can ever be the same
You're spaced out on sensation
Like you're under sedation
Let's do the Timewarp again
Let's do the Timewarp again
It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane
Let's do the Timewarp again
Let's do the Timewarp again
Well I was walking down the street just a having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink
He shook-a me up, he took me by surprise
He had a pick-up truck and the devil's eyes
He stared at me and I felt a change
Time meant nothing, never would again
Let's do the Timewarp again
Let's do the Timewarp again
It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane
Let's do the Timewarp again
Let's do the Timewarp again
Tomorrow - Annie
The sun will come out tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow
There'll be sun

Between the sinners

Fight the other founding fathers til he has to forfeit?
Have it all, lose it all
You ready for more yet?
Treasury Secretary. Washingtons the President
Evry American experiment sets a precedent
Not so fast. Someone came along to resist him
Pissed him off until we had a two-party system
You havent met him yet; you havent had the chance
cause hes been kickin ass as the ambassador to France
But someones gotta keep the American promise
You simply must meet Thomas. Thomas!

Wouldnt It Be Loverly My Fair Lady
All I want is a room somewhere,
Far away from the cold night air.
With one enormous chair,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?
Lots of choc'lates for me to eat,
Lots of coal makin' lots of 'eat.
Warm face, warm 'ands, warm feet,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?
Aow, so loverly sittin' abso-bloomin'-lutely still.
I would never budge 'till spring
Crept over me windowsill.
Someone's 'ead restin' on my knee,
Warm an' tender as 'e can be. 'ho takes good care of me,
Aow, wouldn't it be loverly?

And you just can't stop my knife and fork when I see a Christmas ham
So if you don't like the way I look, well, I just don't give a damn
Cause the world keeps spinning round and round
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound
I was lost 'til I heard the drums then I found my way
Cause you can't stop the beat
Ever since this whole world began
A woman found out if she shook it she could shake up a man
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it the best that I can today
Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna but I never ask why
And if you try to hold me down I'm gonna spit in your eye
And say that you can't stop the beat
[Motormouth]
Oh, oh, oh, you can't stop today as it comes speeding down the track
Child, yesterday is history and it's never coming back
Cause tomorrow is a brand new day and it don't know white from black
Cause the world keeps spinning round and round
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound
I was lost 'til I heard the drums then I found my way
Cause you can't stop the beat
[Everyone]
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman liked to shake it on a Saturday night
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today
Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above
They can try to stop the paradise we're dreaming of
But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay
Cause you can't stop the beat
Aah________________

Come on you Von Tussles! Go on, shake your fanny muscles (We cant)
Yes you can (We cant)
Yes you can (Yes we can!)
You cant stop the beat.
Ever since we first saw the sun
A man and woman liked to shake it when the day is done
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it and have some fun for today
You can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise we're dreaming of
But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay
You can't stop the beat

But not for free-and-gratis-An inch or two, and then she knows
When to say when!

Whether it's hidden, or whether it shows -It's the same... oom-pah-pah!
She was from the country
But now she's up a gum-tree -She let a feller beat 'er, then lead 'er along
What's the good o' cryin'?
She's made a bed to lie in
She's glad to bring the coin in
And join in this song!
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
That's how it goes!
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!

When they hear... oom-pah-pah!!
