[COMPANY]
British Admiral Howe's got troops on the water
Thirty-two thousand troops in New York harbor
Thirty-two thousand troops in New York harbor
When they surround our troops!
They surround our troops!
They surround our troops!

(Ding.)

[HAMILTON]
–an, I wished for a war
I knew that I was

[HAMILTON, slow motion]
POOR!
I knew

[HAMILTON]
It was the only way to–

[HAMILTON AND WASHINGTON]
Rise up!

*slow inhale*

[HAMILTON]
I will fight for this land!
There's only one–
Who can rise up!
Understand? It's the only way to
Rise up! Rise up!
Here he comes!

[HAMILTON]
Ladies and–
–of Mount Vernon!
General Warshington!

[WASHINGTON]
We are outgunned!
Gotta make an all out stand
Ayo, I'm gonna need a right hand man!
Check it–
Can I be real a second?
For just a millisecond?
Let down my guard and tell the people how I feel a second?
Now I’m the model of a modern major general
The venerated Virginian veteran whose men are all

[WASHINGTON (HAMILTON AND WASHINGTON)]
Lining up, to put me up on a (pedestal)
(Writin’ letters to relatives)
(Embellishin’) my (elegance and eloquence)

[WASHINGTON (HAMILTON)]
But– (Brrah!)

[WASHINGTON AND HAMILTON]
The elephant is in the room!
The truth is in your face
When you hear the British cannons go

[BOTH, slow motion]
BOOM!

[WASHINGTON]
These are my hands!

[HAMILTON]
Ohhh!

[SOUNDTRACK WASHINGTON]
How can I keep leading when the–

[SOUNDTRACK WASHINGTON, slo-mo]
...leading when the people–

[SOUNDTRACK WASHINGTON]
I'm leading–

[WASHINGTON AND HAMILTON]
Keep retreating!

*long, slow inhale*

[WASHINGTON AND HAMILTON]
We put a stop to the bleeding as the British take–

[HAMILTON]
BROOKLYN!

[WASHINGTON AND HAMILTON]
Knight takes rook, but look

[WASHINGTON AND HAMILTON (ENSEMBLE)]
We are outgunned (What?)
Outmanned (What?)
Outnumbered
Outplanned (Buck, buck, buck, buck, buck!)
We gotta make an all out stand
Heyo, I'm gonna need a right hand man!
(Buck, buck, buck, buck, buck!)

[WASHINGTON (HAMILTON)]
Incoming! (Incoming!)

[SOUNDTRACK HAMILTON]
They’re battering down the Battery check the damages

[MULLIGAN]
Roar!

[SOUNDTRACK HAMILTON]
We gotta stop ‘em and rob ‘em of their advantages

[MULLIGAN (HAMILTON)]
Rawr XD! (Rah!)

[SOUNDTRACK HAMILTON (MULLIGAN)]
Let’s take a stand with the stamina God has granted us (*blows raspberry*)
Hamilton won’t abandon ship
Yo, let’s steal their cannons—

[ENSEMBLE (HAMILTON)]
Boom! (*blows intense raspberry*)

*explosion sound effect*

[RECORDING WASHINGTON]
Watch the blood and the **** spray...

[BOTH]
Boom!

[SOUNDTRACK WASHINGTON]
Goes the cannon, we’re abandonin’ Kips Bay and…

*explosion sound effect*

[IZZY (JULIET)]
Gotta run the Harlem quick, we can't afford another slip
(Yeah!)
Giddy up!
I decide (to divvy up)
My forces, they're skittish as the British cuts the city up
This close to giving up, facing mad scrutiny
I scream in the face of this mass mutiny!

[WASHINGTON]
Are these the men with which I am to defend America?
We ride at midnight, Manhattan in the distance
I cannot be everywhere at once, people!
I’m in dire need of assistance…

[SOUNDTRACK BURR]
–captain under General Montgomery (IZZY gasps loudly.)

[IZZY]
I didn't see him!

[SOUNTRACK BURR]
Well, in summary...

[IZZY]
I was putting the mask on and he–

[BURR]
I admire how you keep fustance

[WASHINGTON]
Hm

[BURR]
I have some questions a couple–

[BURR]
–gestions on how to fight instead of fleeing west

[WASHINGTON]
Yes?
Hamilton, come in, have you met Burr?

[HAMILTON]
We keep meeting!

[RECORDING BURR]
As I was saying, sir–

[WASHINGTON]
No!
Close the door on your way out

[HAMILTON]
Have I done something wrong, sir?

[WASHINGTON]
On the con–
Beyond scary
Your reputation proceeds you, but I have to laugh
Oh my god, if you put on these sunglasses and then–

[HAMILTON, slo-mo]
Sir!

[HAMILTON]
She doesn't even go here

[SOUNDTRACK WASHINGTON]
When we were still downtown
Nathaniel Green and Henry Knox wanted to hire you…

[SOUNTRACK HAMILTON]
To be their Secretary?

[HAMILTON]
I don't think so

[WASHINGTON]
Then why are you upset?

[HAMILTON]
I'm not–

[WASHINGTON]
It's alright! You want to fight Cleo
You've got a hunger
I was just like you when I was younger

[WASHINGTON AND HAMILTON]
Head full of fantasies of–

[WASHINGTON]
Killing myself next Wednesday?!
Dying is easy, young man. Living is harder

[HAMILTON]
Why are you telling me this?

[WASHINGTON]
I’m being honest
I’m working with a third of what our Congress has promised!
...

[HAMILTON]
It's not me!

[WASHINGTON]
I need someone like you to lighten the load. So?

[ENSEMBLE]
I am not throwin’ away my shot!

[HAMILTON]
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
Ayo, I’m just like my country, I’m young
Scrappy and hungry!
Not throwing away my shot!
Son–

[ALL]
We are outgunned, outmanned!

[HAMILTON]
You need all the help you can get
I have some friends. Laurens, Mulligan
Marquis de Lafayette, okay, what–

[ENSEMBLE]
Outnumbered, outplanned!

[HAMILTON]
We’ll need some spies on the inside
Some King’s men who might let some things slide

[HAMILTON (WASHINGTON/GIRLS)]
I’ll write to Congress and tell ‘em we need supplies, you rally the guys, (Whoa, whoa, whoa...)
Master the element of surprise (Shh-boom!)
I'll rise above my station, organize your information
'Til we rise to the occasion of our new nation. Sir!

[ENSEMBLE]
Here comes the general!

[HAMILTON]
Rise up!

[ENSEMBLE]
Here comes the general!

[HAMILTON]
Rise up!

[THE BOYS]
What?

[ENSEMBLE]
Here comes the general!

[HAMILTON]
What?
And his right hand man!

[ALL]
Boom!

[WASHINGTON]
Cleo!
