[BURR]

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

Washington on your side

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

Washington on your side

[JEFFERSON]

Ev’ry action has its equal, opposite reactions

Thanks to Hamilton, our cab’net’s fractured into factions

Try not to crack under the stress, we’re breaking down like fractions

We smack each other in the press, and we don’t print retractions

I get no satisfaction witnessing his fits of passion

The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion

Our poorest citizens, our farmers, live ration to ration

As Wall Street robs ‘em blind in search of chips to cash in

This prick is askin’ for someone to bring him to task

Somebody gimme some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him

I’ll pull the trigger on him, someone load the gun and cock it

While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket

[JEFFERSON AND BURR]

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

Washington on your side

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

Washington on your side

Look back at the Bill of Rights

[MADISON]

Which I wrote

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

The ink hasn’t dried

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

Washington on your side

[MADISON]

So he’s doubled the size of the government

Wasn’t the trouble with much of our previous government size?

[BURR]

Look in his eyes!

[JEFFERSON]

See how he lies

[MADISON]

Follow the scent of his enterprise

[JEFFERSON]

Centralizing national credit

And making American credit competitive

[MADISON]

If we don’t stop it we aid and abet it

[JEFFERSON]

I have to resign

[MADISON]

Somebody has to stand up for the South!

[BURR]

Somebody has to stand up to his mouth!

[JEFFERSON]

If there’s a fire you’re trying to douse

[MADISON AND JEFFERSON]

You can’t put it out from inside the house

[JEFFERSON]

I’m in the cabinet. I am complicit in

Watching him grabbin’ at power and kiss it

If Washington isn’t gon’ listen

To disciplined dissidents, this is the difference:

This kid is out!

[MADISON/BURR/JEFFERSON]

Oh!

This immigrant isn’t somebody we chose

Oh!

This immigrant’s keeping us all on our toes

Oh!

Let’s show these Federalists who they’re up against!

Oh!

[JEFFERSON/MADISON]

Southern motherfuckin’—

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

Democratic-Republicans!

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR/ENSEMBLE]

Oh!

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

Let’s follow the money and see where it goes

[ENSEMBLE]

Oh!

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

Because every second the Treasury grows

[ENSEMBLE]

Oh!

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

If we follow the money and see where it leads

Get in the weeds, look for the seeds of

Hamilton’s misdeeds

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

It must be nice. It must be nice

[MADISON]

Follow the money and see where it goes

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

It must be nice. It must be nice

[JEFFERSON]

The emperor has no clothes

[JEFFERSON/MADISON/BURR]

We won’t be invisible. We won’t be denied

Still

It must be nice, it must be nice to have

Washington on your side
