Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf (Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf)

Good, un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf (Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf)

Sept, huit, neuf (Sept, huit, neuf)

Sept, huit, neuf (Sept, huit, neuf)

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine

My dearest Angelica

"Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day"

I trust you'll understand the reference

To another Scottish tragedy without my having to name the play

They think me Macbeth, ambition is my folly

I'm a polymath, a pain in the ass, a massive pain

Madison is Banquo, Jefferson's Macduff

And Birnam Wood is Congress on its way to Dunsinane

And there you are, an ocean away

Do you have to live an ocean away?

Thoughts of you subside

Then I get another letter

And I cannot put the notion away

Take a break

I am on my way

There's a little surprise before supper and it cannot wait

I'll be there in just a minute, save my plate

Alexander

Okay, okay

Your son is nine years old today

He has something he'd like to say

He's been practicing all day

Philip, take it away

Daddy, daddy, look

My name is Philip

I am a poet, I wrote this poem just to show it

And I just turned nine

You can write rhymes but you can't write mine (What!)

I practice French and play piano with my mother (Uh-huh)

I have a sister, but I want a little brother (Okay)

My daddy's trying to start America's bank

Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq (Bravo!)

Take a break

Hey, our kid is pretty great

Run away with us for the summer, let's go upstate

Eliza, I've got so much on my plate

We can all go stay with my father

There's a lake I know (I know)

In a nearby park (I'd love to go)

You and I can go when the night gets dark

I will try to get away

My dearest Alexander

You must get through to Jefferson

Sit down with him and compromise

Don't stop till you agree

Your favourite older sister, Angelica reminds you

There's someone in your corner all the way across the sea

In a letter I received from you two weeks ago

I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase

It changed the meaning, did you intend this?

One stroke and you've consumed my waking days, it says

"My dearest, Angelica"

With a comma after dearest, you've written

"My dearest, Angelica"

Anyway, all this to say

I'm coming home this summer at my sister's invitation

I'll be there with your family if you make your way upstate

I know you're very busy, I know your work's important

But I'm crossing the ocean and I just can't wait

You won't be an ocean away

You will only be a moment away

Alexander, come downstairs

Angelica's arriving today

Angelica

Eliza

The Schuyler sisters

Alexander

Hi

It's good to see your face

Angelica, tell this man

John Adams spends the summer with his family

Angelica, tell my wife

John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway

You're not joining us? Wait

I'm afraid I cannot join you upstate

Alexander, I came all this way

She came all this way

All this way, take a break

You know I have to get my plan through Congress

Run away with us for the summer, let's go upstate

I lose my job if we don't get this plan through Congress

We can all go stay with our father

There's a lake I know (I know I'll miss your face)

In a nearby park (Screw your courage to the sticking place)

You and I can go (Eliza's right)

Take a break and get away

Run away with us for the summer, let's go upstate

We can all go stay with our father (Where we can stay)

If you take your time (Look around, look around)

You will make your mark (At how lucky we are to be alive right now)

Close your eyes and dream when the night gets dark

Take a break

I have to get my plan through Congress

I can't stop till I get this plan through Congress
