British Admiral Howe's got troops on the water

Washington groans at the memory.

Thirty-two thousand troops in New York Harbor
Thirty-two thousand troops in New York Harbor
When they surround our troops
They surround our troops
When they surround our troops

As a kid in the Caribbean I wished for a war

"Why did you though dad?" Philip asked.
"It will probably explain,"

I knew that I was poor; I knew it was the only way to
Rise up
If they tell my story
I am either gonna die on the battlefield in glory or
Rise up
I will fight for this land, but there's only one man
Who can give us a command, so we can
Rise up
Understand, it's the only way to
Rise up
Rise up
Here he comes

Here comes the general!

"Is that necessary burr?" Washington asked.
"You were our king to us at the time sir, so yes,"

Ladies and gentlemen!
Here comes the general!
The moment you've been waiting for!
Here comes the general!
The Pride of Mount Vernon!
Here comes the general!

Everyone saw the general facing away from them. They were waiting to see them turn around.

George Washington!

We are out-gunned

Everyone's jaw drops when they see you turn around.
"Man," Jefferson says.
"Never expected Y/N to be me,"

(What!)
Out-manned
(What!)
Out-numbered, out-planned
(Boom, boom, boom; boom, boom!)
We gotta make an all-out stand
Hey yo, I'm gonna need a right-hand man

"That's meeeee"

(Boom, boom, boom; boom, boom!)

Check it -
Can I be real a second?
For just a millisecond?
Let down my guard and tell the people how I feel a second?
Now I'm the model of a modern major general
The venerated Virginian veteran whose men are all
Lining up to put me up on a pedestal, writing letters to relatives
Embellishing my elegance and eloquence

"Did you really feel that way sir?" Alex asks.
"I was stressed from what happened the last time I led,"
Laurens, Mulligan, and Lafayette gave eachother looks, since they didn't know what he was talking about.

But the elephant is in the room
The truth is in your face
When you hear the British cannons go
Boom!

That made all the revolutionary war vets jump.

Any hope of success is fleeting
How can I keep leading when the people I'm leading keep retreating?
We put a stop to the bleeding as the British take Brooklyn
Knight takes rook, but look

We are out-gunned
(What!)
Out-manned
(What!)
Out-numbered, out-planned!
(Boom, boom, boom; boom, boom)
We gotta make an all-out stand
Hey yo, I'm gonna need a right-hand man
(Boom, boom, boom; boom, boom)
Incoming!
