this is my favorite Hamilton song!
~lyrics~ there's nothing rich folks love more then going downtown and slummin' it with the poor. they pull up in their carriages and gawk at the students in the common just to watch them talk take Philip Schuler the man is loaded. Uh-oh but little does he know that his daughters, Peggy, Angelica, Elisa. Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at-- Work' Work! Angelica! Work! Work! Elisa! and Peggy! the Schuyler sisters! Angelica, Peggy, Elisa, Work! daddy said to be home by sundown. daddy doesn't need to know. daddy said not to go downtown. like i said, your free to go, but--look around, look around, the revolution's happening in new york. new york, Angelica Work! it's bad enough daddy want's to go to war. people shouting in the square. it's bad enough there'll be violence on are shore. new ideas in the air. look around, look around-- Angelica remind me what we're looking for... She's looking for me! Elisa, i'm looking for a mind at work, i'm looking for a mind at work!, i'm looking for a mind at work! Whooaaa! work! Wooh! there's nothing like summer in the city someone in a rush next to someone looking pretty Excuse me miss i know it's not funny but your perfume smell's like your daddy's got money why you slumming in your fancy heels you searching for an urchin who can give you ideas? Burr, you disgust me. Ah so you've discussed me i'm a trust fun, baby, you can trust me! i've been reading commen sense by thomas paine so men say that i'm intense or insane you want a revolution? i want a revelation so listen to my declaration: ''we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal'' and when i meet thomas jefferson. uhh! im'a compel him to put women in the sequel! work! look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now! 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! 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!
