2017
[EVERYONE] Seventeen Se-Se-Seventeen Se-Se-Seventeen Seventeen Se-Se-Seventeen Nineteen Ni-Ni-Nineteen-No Eight-Eight-Eighteen [LESLIE ODOM JR.] No, Seventeen! [EVERYONE] Seventeen Se-Se-Seventeen 1776 [OKIERIETE ONADOWAN] Mama, hey, Mama Look sharp [LESLIE ODOM JR.] No, not that 1776. The other one [OKIERIETE ONADOWAN] 76 Trombones [LESLIE ODOM JR.] No, the other, other one [EVERYONE] Seventeen Se-Se-Seventeen Se-Se-Seventeen what? [LESLIE ODOM JR.] 1789 How does a bio-history musical Turn into a mystery And then have everybody pissed? We tried to follow details about every war vet Who is who, who does what. Are you keepin' score yet? Hamilton's secretary, Washington's the president He bundled up the story's model That one's just a precedent Who's in charge? Who's at large? Do I have to list them? Here's a twist they insist on a two-party system No more Lafayette, he went back to France But Jefferson kicks ass with a classy little dance But someone needs to be the next role we promised Here's Daveed Diggs double cast as Thomas! [WOMEN (MEN)] Daveed Diggs in another role (Thomas Jefferson now has soul) Daveed Diggs has been double cast (It's getting confusing fast.) [EVERYONE] Thomas Jefferson's comin' Now things get so complicated really fast [DAVEED DIGGS] If you're following us it gets confusing Even when we're status quo But if you're mixed up and your head still spins I can fill you in with my declaration And I'll clarify this show And I'll keep it slow and mellow Till the dancer pod begins So what did you miss? What did you miss? The lyrics go by so fast that you are in the abyss I see you sittin' there lookin' befuddled I guess my diction is sloppy and muddled We're tellin' a complex plot so what did you miss? Let me clarify this! There's a lady who's confused who's a resident And if Hamilton has come on yet Honey, be a lamb, darling concentrate a bit [LADY] What? [DAVEED DIGGS] Don't you follow? I'm the fellow in the cabinet Who's gonna try to be the secretary of state. Wait The U.S capital's gonna get moved I won't explain, explain, we're cutting out of New York [EVERYONE] Cuttin' out New York Cuttin' out New York [DAVEED DIGGS (EVERYONE)] Lookin' at the audience I can't (believe you follow me) Floatin' in space the audience looks so (blank in NYC) But no one admits they can't keep up with the pace Some old guy, reticent, red in the face He grabs my arm and asks me [MAN] Hey, vats going on? Vat did I miss? Vat did I miss? I came in late cause I had to go to a bris Ven I returned I got lost in the proles I must have nodded off and taken a doze Son, I really need your help to get to the bottom of this [DAVEED DIGGS (MAN) {EVERYONE}] What did you miss? (Yes! Vat did I miss?) My rapping lyrics left New York critics cheering (Huh?) But they are awfully hard upon the hard of hearing (Huh? Vat did I miss?) {Checking the plot} (Vat did I miss?) {Give us a lot} {Can you believe you paid $800 for this?} {So what did you miss?}
