Why do you fight like
Why do you fight like
History has its eyes on you!
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
I am Alexander Hamilton!
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
You skipped the replies again… He and the ensemble go back and forth.
(I keep listening to the song over and over again and looking at the lyrics online but it’s still confusing to me 😛 I’m not very good at figuring things out 😛 )
Sorry, I’m just a bit obsessed with this song. ^^ After everyone sings “History has its eyes on you” it goes like this:
Hamilton: I am not throwing away my shot
Ensemble: Just you wait
Hamilton: I am not throwing away my shot
Ensemble: Just to wait
Hamilton: I am Alexander Hamilton!
Ensemble: Alexander Hamilton
Hamilton
Just you wait!
Hamilton: I am not throwing away my shot!
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
Just you wait!
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
(I forgot to change my name on my phone 😛 )
Just you wait!
I am
Alexander Hamilton!
Alexander Hamilton!
Hamilton
Just you wait!
I am not throwin’ away my shot!
YAAAAAY WE FINALLY FINISHED IT!!!!! SORRY I KEPT GETTING EVERYTHING WRONG 😛
Nah, it’s cool. ^^ Sorry for being so nit-picky. I just really love this song.
Do ya wanna sing another one? 😀
Sure. ^^ I’m in an Obedient Servant mood, if you want. Or whatever, I’m flexible. ^^
Obedient Servant is fine 😀 Do you wanna start?
Sure, I’ll take Burr, sir. 😉
How does Hamilton
An arrogant
Immigrant, orphan
Bastard, *****son
Somehow endorse
Thomas Jefferson, his enemy
A man he’s despised since the beginning
Just to keep me from winning?
I wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
The room where it happens
You’ve kept me from
The room where it happens
(I think we’ve filled up like 4 pages with our singing 😛 )
For the last time
Dear Alexander
I am slow to anger
But I toe the line
As I reckon with the effects
Of your life on mine
I look back on where I failed
And in every place I checked
The only common thread has been your disrespect
Now, you call me “amoral”
A dangerous disgrace
If you’ve got something to say
Name a time and place, face to face
I have the honor to be
Your Obedient Servant
A dot Burr
(Oops. XD)
Mr. Vice President
I am not the reason no one trusts you
No one knows what you believe
I will not equivocate on my opinion
I have always worn it on my sleeve
Even if I said what you think I said
You would need to cite a more specific grievance
Here’s an itemized list of thirty years of disagreements
Sweet Jesus
Hey, I have not been shy
I am just a guy in the public eye
Tryin’ to do my best for our republic
I don’t wanna fight
But I won’t apologize for doing what’s right
I have the honor to be Your Obedient Servant
A dot Ham
Careful how you proceed, good man
Intemperate indeed, good man
Answer for the accusations I lay at your feet
Or prepare to bleed, good man
Burr, your grievance is legitimate
I stand by what I said, every bit of it
You stand only for yourself
It’s what you do
I can’t apologize because it’s true
Then stand, Alexander
Weehawken. Dawn.
Guns. Drawn.
You’re on.
I have the honor to be
Your Obedient Servant
A dot Ham
A dot Burr
YAAAAAAY 😛 Do you wanna do another one?!?!? 😀
Sure. ^^ I feel like Ten Duel Commandments and Meet Me Inside would give us plenty of trading off of lines, if we want to do them in order. 😀
Sure 😀 Wanna start?
Sure. ^^
One two three four
Five six seven eight nine…
It’s the Ten Duel Commandments!
It’s the Ten Duel Commandments!
Number one!
The challenge: Demand satisfaction
If they apologize, no need for further action
Number two!
If they don’t, grab a friend, that’s your second
Your lieutenant when there’s reckoning to be reckoned
Number three!
Have your seconds meet place to place
Negotiate a peace…
Or negotiate a time and place
This is commonplace, ‘specially’ tween recruits
Most disputes die and no one shoots
Number four!
If they don’t reach a peace, that’s alright
Time to get some pistols and a doctor on site
You pay him in advance, you treat him with civility
You have him turn around so he can have deniability
Five!
Duel before the sun is in the sky
Pick a place to die where it’s high and dry
Number six!
(Yay, I got to say my favorite line. ^^)
Leave note for your next of kin
Tell ’em where you’ve been. Pray that **** or heaven lets you in
(Should I edit the **** part out? 😛 )
Seven!
(Yeah, seems like the best idea – do you think I should edit out *****son from Obedient Servant?)
(Probably)
Confess your sins.
Ready for the moment of adrenaline when you finally face your opponent.
Number eight!
(I’ll go do that then)
Your last chance to negotiate
Send in your seconds, see if they can set the record straight…
Alexander
(This is the third time I’ve gotten Burr’s part. XD)
Aaron Burr, Sir
( 😛 )
Can we agree that duels are dumb and immature?
(Oh, the irony. XD)
(IKR?!? 😛 )
Sure
But your man has to answer for his words, Burr
With his life? We both know that’s absurd, sir
(Apparently, Burr actually stopped a duel between Hamilton and James Monroe by talking Hamilton out of the duel – sometimes history makes the irony itself. :P)
Hang on, how many men died because Lee was inexperienced and ruinous?
(I knew about that 😀 Did you know that when Maria got divorced to her husband, Burr was her lawyer? 😛 )
Okay, so we’re doing this
(I think I did hear that one)
Number nine!
Look ’em in the eye, aim no higher
Summon all the courage you require
Then count
One two three four
Five six seven eight nine
Number
Ten paces!
Fire!
Wanna do Meet Me Inside before I head to bed? 😀
Works for me. ^^
Lee, do you yield?
You shot him in the side!
Yes, he yields!
I’m satisfied
Yo, we gotta clear the field!
Go, we won!
(Oops, sorry Goldi XD)
(Faaaaast thanks still have edit time 😛 )
Here comes the general!
This should be fun
Yo, we gotta clear the field!
Go, we won!
Here comes the General!
This should be fun
What is the meaning of this? Mr. Burr, get a medic for the General
Yes, sir
Lee, you will never agree with me, believe me, these young men don’t speak for me.
Thank you for your service
Lee, you will never agree with me
But believe me, these young men don’t speak for me
Thank you for your service
Let’s ride!
(Yay, I get Hamilton’s part. ^^)
Hamilton!
Sir?
Meet me inside!
Meet me inside
Meet him inside! Meet him inside!
Meet him inside, meet him, meet him inside
Son…
Don’t call me son
This war is hard enough
Without infighting
Lee called you out. We called his bluff
You solve nothing, you aggravate our allies to the south
You’re absolutely right, John should’ve shot him in the mouth
That would’ve shut him up
Son..
I’m notcha son
Watch your tone
I am not a maiden in need of defending, I am grown
Charles Lee, Thomas Conway
These men take your name and they rake it
Through the mud!
My name’s been through a lot, I can take it
Well I don’t have your name
I don’t have your titles
I don’t have your land
But if you –
No
If you gave me a command of a battalion
A group of men to lead, I could
Fly above my station after the war
