How does a ragtag volunteer army in need of a shower

Somehow defeat a global superpower?

How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire?

Leave the battlefield waving Betsy Ross's flag higher?

Yo, turns out we have a secret weapon

An immigrant you know and love who's unafraid to step in

He's constantly confusing, confounding the British henchmen

Everyone give it up for America's favorite fighting Frenchman

Lafayette

I'm takin' this horse by the reins

Makin' redcoats redder with bloodstains

Lafayette

And I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em drop or burn 'em up

And scatter their remains, I'm--

Lafayette

Watch me engagin' 'em, escapin' 'em, enragin' 'em, I'm--

Lafayette

I go to France for more funds

Lafayette

I come back with more guns and ships

And so the balance shifts

We rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts

We can end this war at Yorktown

Cut them off at sea

But for this to succeed, there is someone else we need

I know

Sir, he knows what to do in a trench

Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean

You're gonna have to use him eventually

What's he gonna do on the bench? I mean

No one has more resilience or matches

My practical tactical brilliance

You want to fight for your land back?

I need my right-hand man back

Get your right-hand man back

You know you gotta get your right-hand man back

Gotta put some thought into the letter but the sooner the better

To get your right-hand man back

Alexander Hamilton

Troops are waiting in the field for you

If you join us right now

Together we can turn the tide

Oh, Alexander Hamilton

I have soldiers that will yield for you

If we manage to get this right

They'll surrender by early light

The world will never be the same
