Singing Hamilton

[AonEne he/him]

I take their measurements, information, and then I smuggle it (up!) 

[Szeth's Facepalm]

To my brother's revolutionary covenant

[Guest]

I’m runnin’ with the Sons of Liberty and I am lovin’ it!

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

See, that's what happens when you're up against the ruffians

[Szeth's Facepalm]

We into [crem] now, sombody's gotta shovel it

[Edema Rue she/her]

Hercules Mulligan, I need no introduction. 

[Szeth's Facepalm]

When you knock me down i get the storms back up again!!

*epic instrumental*

[Edema Rue she/her]

After a week of fighting, a young man in a red coat stands atop a parapet 

[AonEne he/him]

We lower our guns as he frantically waves a white handkerchief 

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

And just like that, it’s over

[Liahona]

We tend to our wounded, we count our dead

[Edema Rue she/her]

Black and white soldiers wonder alike if this really means freedom. 

[The Sibling she/her]

Not yet.

[Liahona]

We negotiate the terms of surrender

[The Sibling she/her]

I see George Washington smile

 

[Edema Rue she/her]

We escort their men out of Yorktown.

[Liahona]

They stagger home single file

[Edema Rue she/her]

tens of thousands of people flood the streets

[Liahona]

There are screams and church bells ringing

[Edema Rue she/her]

I hear the drinking song they're singing. 

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

The world turned upside down! (x4)

[The Sibling she/her]

Freedom for America, freedom for France!

[Edema Rue she/her]

(Down, down down…)

Gotta start a new nation gotta meet my son!

[Szeth Pancakes he/they]

Just now, Ookla the Ta'veren said:

(Down, down down…)

Gotta start a new nation gotta meet my son!

(Down, down, down...)

We won! We won! We won! We won!

[Edema Rue she/her]

The world turned upside down!

Non-Stop

After the war I went back to New York.
