Richard: Alright, next song, "You'll Be Back"!

KGIII: Finally, a good song, a good song because I am singing it!

KGIII: You say, the price of my love's not a price that you're willing to pay.

Hamilton: If you sending troops to "control" us is love, then violence must be creating peace worldwide. 

KGIII: You cry, in your tea which you hurl in the sea when you see me go by. 

Jefferson: Hey, it wasn't my fault!

KGIII: It literally was, you chose to hurl our tea into the ocean!

Madison: Because you were putting useless taxes on them.

KGIII: Why so sad? Remember we made an arrangement when you went away.

Washington: We broke that arrangement, and if you try again, you can be beat again!

Richard: Actually, that happened! The War of 1812 was when America tried to take Canada, but that started a war with Britain. Sadly, America lost.

Revolutionaries: AWWWWW!

KGIII: Now you're making me mad! Remember despite our estrangement, 

Philip: I'd like to keep that estrangement that way!

KGIII: I'm your man. You'll be back, soon you'll see, you'll remember you belonged to me. You'll be back, time will tell, you'll remember that I served you well. Oceans rise, empires fall, we have seen each other through it all.

Washington: More than we wanted to, anyways.

KGIII: And when push comes to shove, I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love!

Philip Jr: That's not love! That's not love at all!

Hamilton: He was just being crazy!

Richard: Yeah, the theme was for it to be a crazy love song! 

KGIII: And I loved you guys! 

Richard: I'm doing a secret lie detector on him, he didn't care about you guys!

KGIII: HOW DARE YOU SHOW EXPOSURE! THAT'S TREASON! 

KGIII: Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da 

Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya-da

Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya!

Angie: What the heck is that? 

Philip: What was it supposed to be? 

KGIII: Even I don't know! And I sing the song!

KGIII: You say our love is draining and you can't go on!!! You'll be the one complaining when I am gone!

Hamilton: Are you sure we were complaining? 

Jefferson: I don't think anyone was except you!

Richard: There's more of his complaining throughout the play!

KGIII: AND NO, DON'T CHANGE THE SUBJECT! Because you're my favorite subject! My sweet submissive subject! My loyal, royal subject! 

Washington: We left your rule. We don't deserve anything you gave us. 

Richard: Washington, I'm sorry, but get your facts straight! This is right before the revolution started! And heck, this is a good song!

KGIII: Forever. And ever. And ever, and ever, and ever! 

Philip Jr: Well, that didn't last long, didn't it? 

Eliza: Yes, It did not. 

Philip Jr: Thanks, I don't think you ever agree with me.

KGIII: You'll be back, like before, I will fight the fight and win the war. 

Richard: For anyone who wonders what war they are talking about, I think it's the French and Indian War. 

Washington: *war flashbacks* (literally) 

Richard: I know, Washington, don't say anything. 

Washington: Thank you.

Lafayette: What's wrong with you, Mon General?

KGIII: For your love, for your praise, I will love you till my dying days! 

Richard: He really was obsessed with you guys! 

Hamilton: Oh say, can you see-

Richard: How do you know that, it was written 10 years after you died?

Hamilton: Uh, Madison was alive during that time, he filled me in once he died. 

KGIII: When you're gone, I'll go mad.

Richard: In case you're wondering, he did go mad, and died because of it.

KGIII: I died of my own madness? To be honest, that's kinda cool. 

KGIII: So don't throw away this thing we had. So when push comes to shove, I will kill your friends and family, to remind you of my love!

Philip Jr: I THINK YOU SHOULD KILL YOURSELF!

Hamilton: SON! 

Eliza: Philip (Little Phil) Hamilton Jr! We do not talk like that in this  family!

Philip: That was funny! 

Philip Jr: You wasted your life, you shouldn't be talking! 

Philip: Because Dad told me to!

Eliza: WHAT?!

Hamilton: *thinks* IIMAGINEDEATHSOMUCHITFEELSMORELIKEAMEMORY-

KGIII: Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da

Da-da, dat, dat, da-ya-da
Da-da-da, dat-da, dat, da-da-da, da-ya-da
Da-da, dat- everybody!

Richard: Alright, that was "You'll Be Back"!

Philip Jr: Next song?

Richard: "Right-Hand Man", it's the beginning of the revolution. 

Revolutionaries: YAY!

Richard: See you guys soon!
