Karaoké Blow Us All Away Hamilton

Meet the latest graduate of King's college

I probably shouldn't brag but dag I amaze and astonish

The scholars say I got the same virtuosity and brains as my pops

The ladies say my brain's not where the resemblance stops

I'm only nineteen but my mind is older

Gotta be my own man like my father but bolder

I shoulder his legacy with pride

I used to hear him say that someday I would

Ladies, I'm lookin for a Mister George Eacker

Made a speech last week our Fourth of July speaker

He disparaged my father's legacy in front of a crowd

I can't have that

I'm making my father proud

I saw him just up Broadway a couple of blocks

He was goin' to see a play

Well, I'll go visit his box

God, you're a fox and y'all look pretty good in ya' frocks

How 'bout when I get back we all strip down to our socks?

Ooh OK, oh

George

Shh

I'm tryin' to watch the show

George

Ya' shoulda watched your mouth before you yalked about my father though

I didn't say anything that wasn't true

Your father's a scoundrel and so it seems are you

It's like that?

Yeah, I don't fool around

I'm not your little schoolboy friends

See you on the dueling ground that is unless you wanna step outside and go now

I know where to find you piss off

I'm watchin' this show now

Pops, if you had only heard the shit he said about you

I doubt you would have let it slide and

I was not about to

Slow down

I came to ask you for advice this is my very first duel

They don't exactly cover this subject in boarding school

Did your friends attempt to negotiate a peace?

He refused to apologize we had to let the peace talks cease

Where is this happening?

Across the river in Jersey

Everything is legal

Everything is legal in New Jersey in New Jersey

Alright

So this is what you're gonna do

Stand there like a man until Eacker is in front of you

When the time comes fire your weapon in the air

This will put an end to the whole affair

But what if he decides to shoot?

Then I'm a goner

No, he'll follow suit if he's truly a man of honor

To take someone's life that is something you can't shake

Philip, your mother can't take another heartbreak

Father

Promise me

You don't want this young man's blood on your conscience

Okay, I promise

Come back home when you're done

Take my guns be smart, make me proud, son

My name is Philip

I am a poet

I'm a little nervous but I can't show it

I'm sorry

I'm a Hamilton with pride

You talk about my father

I cannot let it slide

Mister Eacker

How was the rest of your show?

I'd rather skip the pleasantries

Let's go

Grab your pistol

Confer with your men the duel will commence after we count to ten

Look 'em in the eye aim no higher

Summon all the courage you require

Then slowly and clearly aim your gun towards the sky
