Cabinet Battle #2 (内阁争论 2) - Lin-Manuel Miranda (林-曼努尔·米兰达)/Daveed Diggs/Christopher Jackson/Okieriete Onaodowan

(《 亚历山大·汉米尔顿》音乐剧插曲)

The issue on the table

France is on the verge of war with England

Now do provide aid and troops to our French allies

Or do we stay out of it

Remember my decision on this matter

Is not subject to congressional approval

The only person you have to convince is me

Secretary Jefferson you have the floor sir

When we were on death's door when we were needy

We made a promise we signed a treaty

We needed money and guns and half a chance

Uhh who provided those funds France

In return they didn't ask for land

Only the promise that we'd lend a hand

And stand with them if they fought against oppressors

And revolution is messy but now is the time to stand

Stand with our brothers as they fight against tyranny

I know that Alexander Hamilton is here

And he would rather not have this debate

I remind you that he is not Secretary of State

He knows nothing of loyalty nothing

Smells like new money

Dresses like fake royalty

Desperate to rise above his station

Everything he does betrays the ideals our nation

Hey and if you don't know now you know Mr President

Thank you Secretary Jefferson

Secretary Hamilton your response

You must be out of your Goddamned mind

If you think

The president is gonna bring the nation to the brink

Of meddling in the middle of a military mess

A game of chess

Where France is queen and king-less

We've signed a treaty with a king

Who's head is now in a basket

Would you like to take it out and ask it

Oh should we honor our treaty king Louis head

Uh do whatever you want I'm super dead

Enough enough

Hamilton is right Mr President

We're too fragile to start another fight

But sir do we not fight for freedom

Sure when the French figure out who's gonna lead 'em

The people are leading

The people are rioting there's a difference

Frankly it's a little disquieting

You would let your ideals blind you to reality

Hamilton sir Draft the statement of neutrality

Did you forget Lafayette wtat

Have you an ounce of regret

You accumulate debt you accumulate power

Yet in their hour of need you forget

Lafayette's a smart man he'll be fine

And before he was your friend he was mine

If we try to fight in every revolution in the world

We never stop where do we draw the line

So quick witted

Alas I admit it

I bet you were quite a lawyer

My defendants got aquitted

Yeah well someone oughtta remind you wtat

You're nothing without Washington behind you

Hamilton daddy's calling
