[Full company]
The Reynolds pamphlet
[Jefferson/Madison/Angelica]
Have you read this?
[Burr/Jefferson/Madison]
Alexander hamilton had a torrid affair
And he wrote it down right there
[Madison]
Highlights!
[Hamilton/Jefferson]
The charge against me
Is a connection with one
James Reynolds!
For purposes of
Improper speculation
[Hamilton/Jefferson/Burr]
My real crime is an
Amorous connection with his wife
[Hamilton/Jefferson]
For a considerable time
With his knowing consent
[Madison/Burr/Jefferson]
Damn!
[Hamilton/Jefferson/Madison]
I had frequent meetings with her
Most of them at my own house
[Burr]
At his own house!
[Madison]
At his own house!
[Deep voice]
Damn!
[Hamilton/jefferson]
Mrs. Hamilton with our children being absent
On a visit to her father
[Madison/Burr]
No
[Company]
Boooo!
[Madison/Burr]
Have you read this?
[Jefferson]
Well, he’s never gon’ be president now
[Madison/Burr]
Never gon’ be president now
[Jefferson]
Well, he’s never gon’ be president now
[Madison/Burr]
Never gon’ be president now
[Jefferson]
He’s never gon’ be president now
[Madison/Burr]
Never gon’ be president now
[Jefferson]
That’s one less thing to worry about
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
That’s one less thing to worry about!
[Angelica]
I came as soon as I heard
[Jefferson]
What?!
[Hamilton]
Angelica
[Company]
All the way from London?!
Damn
[Hamilton]
Angelica, thank God
Someone who understands what I’m
Struggling here to do
[Angelica]
I’m not here for you
[Ensemble]
Oooooh!
[Angelica]
I know my sister like I know my own mind
You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind
I love my sister more than anything in this life
I will choose her happiness over mine every time
Put what we had aside
I’m standing at her side
You could never be satisfied
God, I hope you’re satisfied
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Well, he’s never gon’ be president now
[Ensemble men]
Never gon’ be president now
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Well, he’s never gon’ be president now
[Ensemble men]
Never gon’ be president now
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
Well, he’s never gon’ be president now
[Ensemble men]
Never gon’ be president now
[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]
That’s one less thing to worry about
[Ensemble men]
That’s one less thing to worry about
[Jefferson/madison]
Hey!
[Ensemble women]
Well he’s never gon’ be president now

At least he was honest with our money!
[Ensemble women]
Well he’s never gon’ be president now
[Ensemble men]

Well he’s never gon’ be president now

[Jefferson/Madison/Burr]

You ever see somebody ruin their own life?
[Company (except Hamilton/Eliza)]
His poor wife
