Washington on Your Side
伯尔
It must be nice
那一定很好。
It must be nice
那滋味一定很好——
To have Washington on your side
有华盛顿站在你这一边。
It must be nice
那一定很好。
It must be nice
那滋味一定很好——
To have Washington on your side

杰斐逊
Every action has its equal opposite reaction
每一个作用力，都有一个大小相等、方向相反的反作用力。
Thanks to Hamilton, our cabinet's fractured into factions
拜汉密尔顿所赐，内阁已经分裂成彼此对立的党派。
Try not to crack under the stress
可别在重压之下崩裂；
We're breaking down like fractions
我们正像分数一样，被不断拆分。
We smack each other in the press, and we don't print retractions
我们在报刊上互相抨击，登出去的话从不撤回。
麦迪逊
I get no satisfaction witnessing his fits of passion
看他激情发作，我可得不到半点满足。
The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion
他又梳妆，又卖弄，穿得活像时尚界的宠儿；
Our poorest citizens, our farmers live ration to ration
最贫穷的公民和农民，却只能靠一份份配给熬日子，
as Wall Street robs 'em blind in search of chips to cash in
华尔街为了套现筹码，几乎把他们洗劫一空。
伯尔
This prick is asking for someone to bring him to task
这个混蛋，分明在等人追究他的责任。
Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass
谁来给我一点这具空壳的黑料？
So we can at last unmask him
我们终于可以撕掉他的面具。
I'll pull the trigger on him
扣扳机的事交给我；
Someone load the gun and cock it
只要有人把枪装满，再扳起击锤。
While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket
我们还在旁观时，他早已把华盛顿装进自己口袋。

Look back at the Bill of Rights
回头看看《权利法案》，
Which I wrote

The ink hasn't dried
墨迹甚至还没干透。
It must be nice

杰斐逊
So he's doubled the size of the government
所以，他让政府规模扩大了一倍。
麦迪逊
Wasn't the trouble with much of our previous government size?
而我们先前的政府，问题不正是太庞大吗？
伯尔
Look in his eyes!
看着他的眼睛。
杰斐逊
See how he lies.
看他怎样撒谎。
伯尔
Follow the scent of his enterprise
顺着他那套事业的气味追下去；
麦迪逊
Centralizing national credit
把全国信用集中到联邦手中，
伯尔
And making American credit competitive
还让美国信用有了国际竞争力。
杰斐逊
If we don't stop it we aid and abet it
如果不制止，我们就是在协助、纵容他。
I have to resign

Somebody has to stand up for the South
总得有人站出来捍卫南方，
伯尔
Somebody has to stand up to his mouth
也总得有人站起来堵住他的嘴。
杰斐逊
If there's a fire you're trying to douse
若你想扑灭一场大火，
You can't put it out from inside the house
就不能待在着火的屋子里救火。
I'm in the cabinet
而我还身在内阁；
I am complicit in watching him grabbin' at power and kiss it
眼看他攫住权力、亲吻权力，我也成了共犯。
If Washington isn't gon' listen to disciplined dissidents
如果华盛顿连守纪律的异议者都不肯听，
This is the difference, this kid is out
那区别就在这里：这个小子退出。
伯尔
This immigrant isn't somebody we chose
这个移民，并不是我们选出来的人；
麦迪逊
This immigrant's keeping us all on our toes
可这个移民，却逼得我们所有人时刻不敢松懈。
杰斐逊
Let's show these Federalists who they're up against
让那群联邦党人看看，他们面对的究竟是谁——
麦迪逊 & 杰斐逊
Southern motherfuckin'—
南方他妈的——
伯尔 & 麦迪逊 & 杰斐逊
Democratic-Republicans!
民主共和党人！
Now follow the money and see where it goes
现在，跟着钱走，看它流向哪里。
Because every second the treasury grows

If we follow the money and see where it leads
只要追踪资金，看清它最终通向何处，
Get in the weeds, look for the seeds of Hamilton's misdeeds
钻进杂草深处，寻找汉密尔顿恶行埋下的种子。
It must be nice
那一定很好。
It must be nice

Still, it must be nice
不过，那一定很好。
It must be nice
那滋味一定很好——
To have Washington on your side
