Seventeen. Se- se- seventeen...
Se- se- seventeen…
[Burr]
1789
How does the bastard orphan
Immigrant decorated war vet
Unite the colonies through more debt?
Fight the other founding fathers til he has to forfeit?
Have it all, lose it all
Are you ready for more yet?
Treasury Secretary. Washington’s the President
Ev’ry American experiment sets a precedent
Not so fast. Someone came along to resist him
Pissed him off until we had a two-party system
You haven’t met him yet, you haven’t had the chance
‘cause he’s been kicking ass as the ambassador to France
But someone’s gotta keep the American promise
You simply must meet Thomas. Thomas!
