The Role of the Queen Lyrics

1776
New York City
Pardon me
Are you Aaron Burr, sir?

That depends
Who's asking?

Oh, well, sure, sir
I'm Alexander Hamilton, I'm at your service, sir
I have been looking for you

I'm getting nervous

Sir
I heard your name at Princeton
I was seeking an accelerated course of study w
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?

You punched the bursar

Yes
I wanted to do what you did
Graduate in two, then join the revolutionHe looked at me like I was stupid
I'm not stupid

So how'd you do it? How'd you graduate so fast?

It was my parents' dying wish before they passed

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

Can I buy you a drink?

That would be nice

While we're talking, let me offer you some free advice
Talk less

What?

Smile more

Ha

Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for

You can't be serious

You wanna get ahead?

Yes

Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead

Yo yo yo yo yo
What time is it?

Show time

Like I said

Show time
Show time
Yo
I'm John Laurens in the place to be
Two pints o' Sam Adams, but I'm workin' on three, uh
Those redcoats don't want it with me
'Cause I will pop chick-a pop these cops till I'm free

Oui oui, mon ami, je m'appelle Lafayette
The Lancelot of the revolutionary set
I came from afar just to say bonsoir
Tell the king casse toi
Who's the best?
C'est moi

Brrrah
Brraaah I am Hercules Mulligan
Up in it, lovin' it, yes I heard ya mother said come again

Ay

Lock up ya daughters and horses, of course
It's hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets

Wow

No more sex, pour me another brew, son
Let's raise a couple more

To the revolution

Well, if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton college

Aaron Burr

Give us a verse, drop some knowledge

Good luck with that, you're takin' a stand
You spit
I'm ‘a sit
We'll see where we land

Boooo

Burr, the revolution's imminent
What do you stall for?

If you stand for nothing
Burr, what'll you fall for?

Ooh
Who are you?
Ooh

Who are you?
Ooh

Who are you?

Ooh, who is this kid?
What's he gonna do?
