verse
They think me Macbeth, ambition is my folly
I'm a polymath, a pain in the ass, a massive pain
And Birnam Wood is Congress on its way to Dunsinane
verse
I practice French and play piano with my mother
I have a sister but I want a little brother
My daddy's trying to start America's bank
Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq!
hook
Hey, our kid is pretty great
Run away with us for the summer
Eliza, I've got so much on my plate
We can all go stay with my father
verse
My dearest Alexander, you must get through to Jefferson
Sit down with him and compromise
Don't stop 'til you agree
Your favourite older sister Angelica reminds you
There's someone in your corner all the way across the sea
verse
In a letter I received from you two weeks ago
I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase
It changed the meaning, did you intend this?
One stroke and you've consumed my waking days
verse
I'm coming home this summer
At my sister's invitation
I'll be there with your family if you make your way upstate
I know you're very busy, I know your work's important
But I'm crossing the ocean and I just can't wait
You won't be an ocean away
You'll only be a moment away
verse
Angelica, tell this man, John Adams spends the summer with his family
Angelica, tell my wife, John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway
You're not joining us? Wait-
I'm afraid I cannot join you upstate
Alexander, I came all this way
verse
If you take your time, you will make your mark
Look around, look around, at how lucky we are to be alive right now
Close your eyes and dream
