Favorite Lyrics Hamilton Act 2 Edition
What’d I Miss- ‘cause he’s been kicking ass as the ambassador to France
Cabinet Battle #1- hey, turn around, bend over, I’ll show you where my shoe fits
Take A Break- “My dearest Angelica”/ with a comma after “dearest”/ you’ve written: “my dearest, Angelica”
Say No To This- if you pay/ you can stay
The Room Where It Happens- the pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess
Schuyler Defeated- beware, if goeth before the fall
Cabinet Battle #2- do whatever you want, I’m super dead
Washington On Your Side- southern motherfucking democratic republican
One Last Time- I’m stepping down, I’m not running for President
I Know Him- Jesus Christ, this will be fun!
The Adams Administration- as long as he can hold a pen, he’s a threat
We Know- ha, you don’t even know what you’re asking me to confess
Hurricane-we were sick and she was holding me/ I couldn’t seem to die
The Reynolds Pamphlet- I’m not here for you
Burn-you sleep in your office instead
Blow Us All Away- the ladies say my brain’s not where the resemblance stops
Stay Alive (Reprise)- I would always change the line
It’s Quiet Uptown- I never liked the quiet before
Election of 1800- Jefferson has beliefs. Burr has none
Your Obedient Servant- the only common thread has been your disrespect
Best of Wives and Best of Women- come back to sleep
The World Was Wide Enough- I survived but I paid for it
Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story- and when my time is up/ have I done enough
Favorite Lyrics Hamilton Act 1 Edition
Alexander Hamilton- And me? I’m the damn fool that shot him
Aaron Burr, Sir- if you stand for nothing Burr, what’ll you fall for?
My Shot- I’m past patiently waiting/ I’m passionately smashing every expectation/ every action’s an act of creation
The Story Of Tonight- something they can never take away
The Schuyler Sisters- I’m a trust fund, baby you can trust me
Farmer Refuted- why should a tiny island across the sea regulate the price of tea?
You’ll Be Back- I’ll kill your friends and family to remind of my love
Right Hand Man- Dying is easy, young man; living is harder
A Winter’s Ball- if you can marry a sister, you’re rich son/ is it a question of if, Burr, or which one?
Helpless-And long as I’m alive, Eliza, swear to God you’ll never feel so helpless
Satisfied-Atleast my dear Eliza’s his wife/ atleast I keep his eyes in my life
The Story of Tonight (Reprise)- if the Tomcat can get married (if Alexander can get married)/ there’s hope for our ass, after all!
Wait For It- what’s it like in his shoes?/ Hamilton doesn’t hesitate
Stay Alive- we have resorted to eating our horses
Ten Duel Commandments- pray that Hell or Heaven lets you in
Meet Me Inside- call me son one more time-!
That Would Be Enough- but you deserve a chance to meet your son
Guns and Ships- ev’ryone give it up for America’s favorite fighting Frenchman!
History Has Its Eyes On You- you have no control/ who lives, who dies, who tells your story
Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down)- when you knock me down I get the fuck back up again
What Comes Next- you cheat with the French/ now I’m fighting with France and with Spain
Dear Theodosia- when you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart
Non-Stop-Burr, we studied and we fought and we killed/ for the notion of a nation that we now get to build
Founding Father Alexander Hamilton’s Life is Now a Hip-Hop Musical:
LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA
Plays: Alexander Hamilton
Hometown: New York, NY
You might know her from: Broadway’s In the Heights
On how this crazy idea came to him: “I wasn’t a history buff—not even a little—but I was always an English nerd. I picked up Ron Chernow’s biography of Hamilton randomly at Borders. I knew he died in a duel, so it’d have a cool ending. And I just fell in love with his story.”
Confession: “Hillary Clinton came to see In the Heights in 2009. I used to walk around in my underwear backstage between shows, and I come out of my dressing room and there’s Hillary with three Secret Service guys because she needed to use the bathroom. She said, ‘Show’s great!’ and I ran inside to put some clothes on.”LESLIE ODOM JR.
Plays: Aaron Burr
Hometown: Philadelphia, PA
You might know him from: NBC’s Smash
Post-show ritual: “Lin and I made up a stupid song that we sing at the top of our lungs as we leave the stage. Then we have a shot of rum in the dressing room, and I’ll grab a dollar slice on my way home.”
If I weren’t an actor I’d be…“I wish I could say that I would be feeding the hungry or something. But I’ve always liked to throw parties, so I’d be a world- renowned DJ who gets flown all over the place for parties on yachts and in underground clubs.”JONATHAN GROFF
Plays: King George
Hometown: Lancaster, PA
You might know him from: Glee, Frozen (voice of Kristoff)
First role: “I was Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz in my dad’s barn. I was a drag Dorothy.”
Dream costar: “I’d love to do a play with Cate Blanchett. I saw her in A Streetcar Named Desire, and it’s my favorite performance ever.”
Confession: “I was on a first date, maybe a year and a half ago. We ate dinner, then he came back to my apartment, and I don’t smoke, but he smoked a cigarette. We were making out, and he’s smoking. So I took a cigarette and also smoked it, and then five minutes later, I projectile vomited because I got so nauseous from smoking. That’s probably the most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened.”read more profiles in the article! on newsstands on July 14.

Sound on if you want to hear the music! It’s honestly been sooooo long since I’ve done these Season 2 Lion Guard boards, it’s hard for me to share them But this one is worth the pain! I was so stoked to be working on a song voiced by the incredible @cjack930! This is from the episode “Beshte and the Beast”
“wait. does that mean i can’t call you my boo in front of the jurors?”
