Everyone watched as Burr's actor sort of skipped onto the stage.

There's nothing rich folks love more
Than going downtown and slummin' it with the poor
They pull up in their carriages and gawk
At the students in the common
Just to watch them talk

"Really?" Angelica asked with a raised eyebrow whilst Burr just shrugged.

Take Philip Schuyler, the man is loaded
Uh-oh, but little does he know that
His daughters, Peggy, Angelica, Esper
Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at-

"But Esper's not one of his daughters?" Peggy was confused.

"Creative liberties have been taken with the show." Aspen replied.

Angelica!
(Work, work)
Esper!
And Peggy (Work, work!)
Angelica! Peggy! Esper!
(Work!)

Daddy said to be home by sundown
Daddy doesn't need to know

"Rebellious, eh, Angelica?" Hamilton smirked. Angelica merely flashed the man a smile.

Daddy said not to go downtown
Like I said, you're free to go
But look around, look around, the
Revolution's happening in New York
New York
Angelica
(Work!)

It's bad enough daddy wants to go to war
People shouting in the square
It's bad enough there'll be violence on our shore
New ideas in the air
Look around, look around
Angelica, remind me what we're looking for
She's lookin' for me

Both Angelica and her actress shared the same disgusted look on their faces.

Esper, I'm lookin' for a mind at work (work)
I'm lookin' for a mind at work! (Work)
Whoa
Whoa
Work!

Wooh! There's nothin' like summer in the city
Someone in a rush net to someone lookin' pretty
Exce me, miss, I know it's not funny
But your perfume smells like your daddy's got money
Why you slummin' in the city in your fancy heels
You searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals?

"Burr, you disgust me," Angelica said in time with her actress.

Burr, you disgust me

"Ah, so you've discussed me," Burr said at the same time as his actor.

Ah, so you've discussed me
I'm a trust fund, baby, you can trust me

"Really, Burr?" Mulligan chuckled.

I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine
Some men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
You want a revolution? I want a revelation
So listen to my declaration
"We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal"
And when I meet Thomas Jefferson (unh!)

"Oh?"

I'ma compel him to include women in the sequel!
(Work!)

"Good luck with that, doll."

Look around, look around at how
Lucky we are to be alive right now!
Look around, look around at how
Lucky we are to be alive right now!

History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be
In the greatest city in the world (in the greatest city)
In the greatest city in the world!

"Angelica," Angelica sang along with her actress counterpart.

Angelica!
(Work, work!)
Esper!

"And Peggy!" Peggy sang along.

And Peggy! (Work, work!)
We're looking for a mind at work! (Work, work!)
Hey! (Work, work!)
Hey! (Work, work! Whoa!)
Hey! (Work, work!)

In the greatest city (work! Work!)
In the greatest city in the world (work! Work!)
In the greatest city in the world

"It is the greatest city in the world," everyone agreed.
