Cabinet Battle #1 by Lin-Manuel Miranda • Album: Hamilton: An American Musical (Original Broadway Cast Recording) • Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/3TfKt8... • Cabinet Battle #1 Lyrics: • [WASHINGTON] • Ladies and gentlemen, you coulda been anywhere in the world tonight, but you’re here with us in New York City. Are you ready for a cabinet meeting??? • The issue on the table: Secretary Hamilton’s plan to assume state debt and establish a national bank. Secretary Jefferson, you have the floor, sir • [JEFFERSON] • ‘Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’ • We fought for these ideals; we shouldn’t settle for less • These are wise words, enterprising men quote ‘em • Don’t act surprised, you guys, cuz I wrote ‘em • [JEFFERSON/MADISON] • Oww • [JEFFERSON] • But Hamilton forgets • His plan would have the government assume state’s debts • Now, place your bets as to who that benefits: • The very seat of government where Hamilton sits • [ • We know who’s really doing the planting • And another thing, Mr. Age of Enlightenment • Don’t lecture me about the war, you didn’t fight in it • You think I’m frightened of you, man? • We almost died in the trench • While you were off getting high with the French • Thomas Jefferson, always hesitant with the President • Reticent—there isn’t a plan he doesn’t jettison • Madison, you’re mad as a hatter, son, take your medicine • Damn, you’re in worse shape than the national debt is in • Sittin’ there useless as two shits • Hey, turn around, bend over, I’ll show you • Where my shoe fits • [WASHINGTON] • Excuse me? Madison, Jefferson, take a walk! Hamilton, take a walk! We’ll reconvene after a brief recess. Hamilton! • [HAMILTON] • Sir! • [WASHINGTON] • A word • [MADISON] • You don’t have the votes • [JEFFERSON/MADISON] • You don’t have the votes • [JEFFERSON] • Aha-ha-ha ha! • [JEFFERSON/MADISON] • You’re gonna need congressional approval and you don’t have the votes • [JEFFERSON] • Such a blunder sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder • [MADISON] • Why he even brings the thunder… • [WASHINGTON] • You wanna pull yourself together? • [HAMILTON] • I’m sorry, these Virginians are birds of a feather • [WASHINGTON] • Young man, I’m from Virginia, so watch your mouth • [HAMILTON] • So we let Congress get held hostage by the South? • [WASHINGTON] • You need the votes • [HAMILTON] • No, we need bold strokes. We need this plan • [WASHINGTON] • No, you need to convince more folks • [HAMILTON] • James Madison won’t talk to me, that’s a nonstarter • [WASHINGTON] • Winning was easy, young man. Governing’s harder • [HAMILTON] • They’re being intransigent • [WASHINGTON] • You have to find a compromise • [HAMILTON] • But they don’t have a plan, they just hate mine! • [WASHINGTON] • Convince them otherwise • [HAMILTON] • What happens if I don’t get congressional approval? • [WASHINGTON] • I imagine they’ll call for your removal • [HAMILTON] • Sir— • [WASHINGTON] • Figure it out, Alexander. That’s an order from your commander • • • #CabinetBattle#1 • #Hamilton:AnAmericanMusical(OriginalBroadwayCastRecording) • #Lin-ManuelMiranda • Important: We don't own any of the songs.
