Aaron Burr Lyrics


[COMPANY]
1776. New York City

[HAMILTON]
Pardon me. Are you Aaron Burr, sir?

[BURR]
That depends. Whoā€™s asking?

[HAMILTON]
Oh, well, sure, sir
Iā€™m Alexander Hamilton, Iā€™m at your service, sir
I have been looking for you

[BURR]
Iā€™m getting nervous

[HAMILTON]
Sirā€¦
I heard your name at Princeton. I was seeking an accelerated course of study when I got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours. I may have punched him. Itā€™s a blur, sir. He handles the financials?

[BURR]
You punched the bursar

[HAMILTON]
Yes!
I wanted to do what you did. Graduate in two, then join the revolution. He looked at me like I was stupid, Iā€™m not stupid

So howā€™d you do it? Howā€™d you graduate so fast?

[BURR]
It was my parentsā€™ dying wish before they passed

[HAMILTON]
Youā€™re an orphan. Of course! Iā€™m an orphan
God, I wish there was a war!
Then we could prove that weā€™re worth more
Than anyone bargained forā€¦

[BURR]
Can I buy you a drink?

[HAMILTON]
That would be nice

[BURR]
While weā€™re talking, let me offer you some free advice
Talk less

[HAMILTON]
What?

[BURR]
Smile more

[HAMILTON]
Ha

[BURR]
Donā€™t let them know what youā€™re against or what youā€™re for

[HAMILTON]
You canā€™t be serious

[BURR]
You wanna get ahead?

[HAMILTON]
Yes

[BURR]
Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead

[LAURENS]
Yo yo yo yo yo!
What time is it?

[LAURENS/LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN]
Show time!

[BURR]
ā€¦like I saidā€¦

[LAURENS]
Show time! Show time! Yo!
Iā€™m John Laurens in the place to be!
Two pints oā€™ Sam Adams, but Iā€™m workinā€™ on three, uh!
Those redcoats donā€™t want it with me!
Cuz I will pop chick-a pop these cops till Iā€™m free!

[LAFAYETTE]
Oui oui, mon ami, je mā€™appelle Lafayette!
The Lancelot of the revolutionary set!
I came from afar just to say ā€œBonsoir!ā€
Tell the King ā€œCasse toi!ā€ Whoā€™s the best?
Cā€™est moi!

[MULLIGAN]
Brrrah brraaah! I am Hercules Mulligan
Up in it, lovinā€™ it, yes I heard ya mother said ā€œCome again?ā€

[LAFAYETTE & LAURENS]
Ayyyyy

[MULLIGAN]
Lock up ya daughters and horses, of course
Itā€™s hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsetsā€¦

[LAFAYETTE]
Wow

[LAURENS]
No more sex, pour me another brew, son!
Letā€™s raise a couple moreā€¦

[LAURENS/LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN]
To the revolution!

[LAURENS]
Well, if it ainā€™t the prodigy of Princeton college!

[MULLIGAN]
Aaron Burr!

[LAURENS]
Give us a verse, drop some knowledge!

[BURR]
Good luck with that: youā€™re takinā€™ a stand
You spit. Iā€™m ā€˜a sit. Weā€™ll see where we land

[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN]
Boooo!

[LAURENS]
Burr, the revolutionā€™s imminent. What do you stall for?

[HAMILTON]
If you stand for nothing, Burr, whatā€™ll you fall for?

[LAURENS]
Ooh
Who are you? [MULLIGAN]
Ooh

Who are you? [LAFAYETTE]
Ooh


Who are you?

[MULLIGAN/LAFAYETTE/LAURENS]
Ooh, who is this kid? Whatā€™s he gonna do?
