lyrics. [KOKO] There's nothing rich folks love more Than going downtown and slummin' it with the poor [SUNRISE] They pull up in their carriages and gawk At the students in the commons just to watch them talk! [KOKO] Take Phillip Schuyler, the man is loaded Uh-oh, but little does he know that his daughters, Koko, [JUNO] Juno, [SUNRISE] Sunrise [KOKO] Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at [ALL] Work, work [JUNO] Juno [ALL] Work, work! [SUNRISE] Sunrise [KOKO, (SUNRISE, and JUNO)] And Koko! (Work, work) [ALL] The Schuyler sisters! [JUNO] Juno [KOKO] Koko [SUNRISE] Sunrise [ALL] Work! [KOKO] Daddy said to be home by sundown [JUNO] Daddy doesn't need to know [KOKO] Daddy said not to go downtown [SUNRISE] Like, I said you're free to go! [JUNO] But! Look around, look around the revolution's happening in New York! [KOKO + SUNRISE] New York! Juno! Work! [KOKO] It's bad enough daddy wants to go to war [SUNRISE] People shouting in the square [KOKO] It's bad enough there'll be violence on our shore [JUNO] New ideas in the air! [ALL] Look around, look around! [SUNRISE] Juno, please remind me what we're looking for..? [KOKO, spoken] Well, *they're* looking for *you!* [JUNO, (SUNRISE + KOKO)] Well, Sunrise, I'm looking a mind at work (Work, work) I'm looking for a mind at work (Work, work) I'm looking for a mind at work (Work, work) Woah, oh [ALL] Woah, oh, work! [KOKO] There's nothing like summer in the city Someone in a rush next to someone looking pretty [SUNRISE] This man said: [KOKO] "Excuse me miss, I know it's not funny, but your perfume smells like your daddy's got money Why’re you slummin' in the city with your fancy heels? You searching for an urchin who can give you ideals?” [JUNO] Sir, you disgust me! [KOKO] “Ah, so you've discussed me" [SUNRISE] Oh? I'm a trust fund baby, you can trust me!” [JUNO] I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine Some men say that I'm intense or I'm insane You want a revolution? I want a revelation! So, listen to my declaration: [ALL] "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal" [JUNO] And when I meet Thomas Jefferson [KOKO + SUNRISE] What? [JUNO] I’ma compel him to include women in the sequel! [ALL] WORK! [SUNRISE] Look around, look around, at how lucky we are to be alive right now! [ALL] Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world! In the greatest city in the world! [JUNO + (SUNRISE and KOKO)] I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine (Look around, look around! The revolution’s happening in New York!) Some men say that I'm intense or I'm insane You want a revolution? I want a revelation! So, listen to my declaration: [ALL] "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal" Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now! History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world! In the greatest city in the world! [ALL] Work, work [JUNO] Juno! [ALL] Work, work [SUNRISE] Sunrise! [KOKO, (SUNRISE, and JUNO)] And Koko! [ALL] The Schuyler sisters! We're looking for a mind at work! [KOKO and SUNRISE + (JUNO)] Hey! Hey! Hey! (Hey! Woah, oh!) [ALL] In the greatest city, in the greatest city in the world! [SUNRISE] In the greatest city in the world!
