HAMILTON: Oh well sure, sir I'm Alexander Hamilton I'm at your service, sir I have been looking for you BURR: I'm getting nervous HAMILTON: Sir, 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 It'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 and join the revolution He looked at me like I was stupid I'm not stupid So how'd you do it How'd you graduate so fast? BURR: It was my parents dying wish before they pa**ed HAMILTON: You're an orphan, of course, I'm an orphan God, I wish there was a war then we could prove that we're worth more than anyone bargained for BURR: Can I buy you a drink? HAMILTON: That would be nice BURR: And while we're talking let me offer you some free advice Talk less HAMILTON: What? BURR: Smile more HAMILTON: Ha... BURR: Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for HAMILTON: You can't be serious BURR: You wanna get ahead? HAMILTON: Yes. BURR: Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead LAURENS: A y-yo y-yo yo, what time is it? MULLIGAN + LAFAYETTE: Showtime! BURR: Like I said... LAURENS: Showtime, showtime yo! I'm John Laurens in the place to be A-two pints o' Sam Adams but I'm working on three Ha! Those redcoats don't want it with me Cause I will pop-chicka-prrop these cops till I'm free LAFAYETTE: Oui, oui, mon ami, je m'appelle Lafayette The Lancelot of the revolutionary set I came from afar just to say bonsoir To the king, "Ca**e toi" Who is the best? C'est moi! MULLIGAN: Brrah, brrah I am Hercules Mulligan Up in it, lovin' it Yes I heard your mother said "Come again!" Lock up your daughters and horses Of course, it's hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets LAURENS: No more s**! Pour me another brew, son Let's raise a couple more ALL: To the revolution! LAURENS: Well if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton College MULLIGAN: Aaron Burr LAURENS: Give us a verse Drop some knowledge BURR: Good luck with that You're taking a stand You spit, Imma sit We'll see where we land LAURENS: Burr, the revolutions imminent What do you stall for?
