The Election of 1800

Burr and Alex looks down.

Can we get back to politics?

Please?

"They even added you crying-" Lee says laughing as Madison grunts

Yo
Every action has its equal opposite reaction
John Adams shat the bed. I love the guy, but he's in traction
Poor Alexander Hamilton, he is missing in action

"Damn I can't grieve in peace-"

So now I'm facing-

Aaron Burr!

With his own faction

He's very attractive in the North, New Yorkers like his chances

He's not very forthcoming on any particular stances

Ask him a question: it glances off, he obfuscates, he dances

And they say I'm a Francophile, at least they know I know where France is!

Thomas, that's the problem; see, they see Burr as a less extreme you

Hm?

You need to change course, a key endorsement might redeem you

Who did you have in mind?

Don't laugh

Who is it?

You used to work on the same staff

Whaaaaaaa

"Whaaaaaa" Jefferson does at the same time.

It might be nice, it might be nice
To get Hamilton on your side

It might be nice, it might be nice
To get Hamilton on your side

Talk less! (Burr!)
Smile more! (Burr!)
Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for! (Burr!)
Shake hands with him! (Burr!)
Charm her! (Burr!)
It's 1800; ladies, tell your husbands, vote for Burr! (Burr!)

"Ya know it's weird hearing that since Women can vote now," Y/N says.
"Holy fuck where did you come from-" Seabury says.
"I won't have to be back till the last two songs :>"
"We don't have any more roles-" Chris, Groff and Jazzy says sitting on the floor.

I don't like Adams!

Well, he's gonna lose, that's just defeatist
And Jefferson?

In love with France!

"HEY!" Jefferson and Lafayette yells.

Yeah, he's so elitist!

I like that Aaron Burr!

I can't believe we're here with him!

He seems approachable?

Like you could grab a beer with him

Dear Mr. Hamilton:
Your fellow Fed'ralists would like to know how you'll be voting

It's quiet uptown

"Let the man greve jeez-" Herc says.

Dear Mr. Hamilton:
John Adams doesn't stand a chance, so who are you promoting?

It's quiet uptown

Jefferson or Burr? (Jefferson or Burr?)
We know, it's lose-lose
Jefferson or Burr? (Jefferson or Burr?)
But if you had to choose!

Dear Mr. Hamilton (Jefferson or Burr?) (Jefferson or Burr?)
(We know, it's lose-lose)
John Adams doesn't stand a chance (We know, it's lose-lose)
So who are you promoting? (Jefferson or Burr?) (Jefferson or Burr?)
But if you had to choose!

Well, if it isn't Aaron Burr, sir

Alexander!

You've created quite a stir, sir

I'm going door to door!

You're openly campaigning?

Sure!

That's new

Honestly, it's kind of draining

Burr?

Sir?

Is there anything you wouldn't do?

No, I'm chasing what I want, and you know what?

What?

I learned that from you

"Wrong move Burr Sir-" George says.

It's a tie!

(If you had to chose if you had to chose)

It's up to the delegates!

(If you had to chose if you had to chose)

It's up to Hamilton!

(If you had to chose if you had to chose)
(If you had to chose if you had to chose if you had to chose chose chose)

Yo (oh!)
The people are asking to hear my voice (oh!)
But the country is facing a difficult choice (oh!)
And if you were to ask me who I'd promote (oh!)

"I can tell who you are picking son-" Washington says.
"Notcha son-"

Jefferson has my vote

"Wait wait what-" Washington says and Y/N laughs.

I have never agreed with Jefferson once (oh!)
We have fought on like 75 different fronts (oh!)
But when all said and all is done
Jefferson has beliefs; Burr has none

"Ooooooooo" Philip, Theo, and George says.

Well, I'll be damned! Well, I'll be damned!

Hamilton's on your side

And you won in a landslide

Congrats on a race well-run
I did give you a fight

Uh-huh

I look forward to our partnership

Our partnership?

As your vice president!

Yeah, right!
You hear this guy?
Man openly campaigns against me
Talking 'bout "I look forward to our partnership!"

It is crazy that the guy who comes in the second gets to be Vice President

Ooh! Y'know what, we can change that! Y'know why?

Why?

'Cause I'm the president

"Really Jefferson-" Washington says.
"It's like that to this day still," Chris says.

Burr, when you see Hamilton
Thank him for the endorsement
