Aaron Burr, Sir, Nervous-er Lyrics by Gerard Alessandrini

Spamilton: An American Parody (Original Cast Recording)

2017

[ALL]
August 2014
New York City
[LIN MANUEL]
Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir?
[LESLIE ODOM]
I'm Leslie Odom as Burr, sir
[LIN MANUEL]
Well sure, sir
I'm Lin Manuel as Hamilton at your service, sir
Now that I've cast you, sir
[LESLIE ODOM]
I'm getting nervous, sir
[LIN MANUEL]
Sorry, sir, that's worse, sir
[LESLIE ODOM]
I'm getting nervous-er-er
[LIN MANUEL]
Sir, I'd like to confer, sir
I am searching throughout Broadway for the answer to my question
How can we make better musicals occur, sir?
It's all a blur, sir
[LESLIE ODOM]
While we're talking, let me offer you some free advice
Smile more
Rhyme less
[LIN MANUEL]
Excuse me, sir?
[LESLIE ODOM]
Be terser in your verse, sir, you're no Johnny Mercer
[LIN MANUEL]
I concur, sir
I'm an amateur, sir
And I don't want to incur your curse or madness
Can you tell me where I'd find a Broadway that I'd prefer, sir?
[LESLIE ODOM (spoken)]
Broadway grosses are higher than ever, that's all you need to be concerned with.
[LESLIE ODOM]
Don't let them know that In the Heights is all you're good for
Credits
