The election of 1800

Can we get back to politics

Please

Yo

Every action has an equal opposite

Reaction

John Adams shat the bed I love the guy

But he's in traction

Poor Alexander Hamilton

He is missing in action

So now I'm facing

Aaron Burr

With his own faction

He's very attractive in the North New Yorkers

Like his chances

He's not very forthcoming on any particular

Stances

Ask him a question it glances off he obfuscates he dances

And they say I'm a Francophile

At least they know I know where France is

Thomas that's the problem see they see Burr

As a less extreme you

Ha

You need to change course a key

Endorsement might redeem you

Who did you have in mind

Don't laugh

Who is it

You used to work on the same staff

What

It might be nice it might be nice

To get Hamilton on your side

It might be nice it might be nice

To get Hamilton on your side

Talk less

Burr

Smile more

Burr

Don't let 'em know

What you're against

Or what you're for

Burr

Shake hands with him

Burr

Charm her

Burr

It's eighteen hundred

Ladies tell your

Husbands vote for

Burr

I don't like Adams

Well he's gonna lose that's just defeatist

And Jefferson

In love with France

Yeah he's so elitist

I like that Aaron Burr

I can't believe we're here with him

He seems approachable

Like you could grab a beer with him

Dear Mr. Hamilton your fellow Fed'ralists

Would like to know how you'll be voting

It's quiet uptown

Dear Mr. Hamilton John Adams doesn't stand

A chance so who are you promoting

It's quiet uptown

Jefferson or Burr

Jefferson or Burr

We know it's

Lose-lose

Jefferson or Burr

Jefferson or Burr

But if you had to

Choose

Dear Mr

Hamilton

Jefferson or

Burr

John Adams

Doesn't stand a

Jefferson or Burr

Who are you promoting

But if you had

To choose

Well if it isn't Aaron Burr sir

Alexander

You've created quite a stir sir

I'm going door to door

You're openly campaigning

Sure

That's new

Honestly it's kind of draining

Burr

Sir

Is there anything you wouldn't do

No

I'm chasing what I want

And you know what

What

I learned that from you

If you had to choose

If you had to choose

It's a tie

If you had to choose

If you had to choose

It's up to the delegates

If you had to choose

If you had to choose

It's up to Hamilton

If you had to choose

Jefferson or Burr

Choose

Choose

Yo

Oh

The people are asking to hear my voice

Oh

For the country is facing a difficult choice

Oh

And if you were to ask me who I'd promote

Oh

Jefferson has my vote

Oh

I have never agreed with Jefferson once

Oh

We have fought on like seventy-five different fronts

Oh

But when all is said and all is done

Jefferson has beliefs Burr has none

Ooh

Well I'll be damned

Well I'll be damned

Hamilton's on your side

Well I'll be damned

Well I'll be damned

And

You won in a landslide

Congrats on a race well-run

I did give you a fight

Uh-huh

I look forward to our partnership

Our partnership

As your Vice President

Ha

Yeah right

You hear this guy

Man openly campaigns against me

Talkin' bout I look forward to our partnership

It's crazy that the guy who comes in second

Becomes Vice. President

Yeah you know what

We can change that

You know why

Why

'Cuz I'm the President

Hey Burr when you see

Hamilton thank him for the endorsement
