ESP: Today in History Burr shot Hamilton.... I'm in the mood to write something sad anyway.
MALE COMPANY:
One two three four
FULL COMPANY (EXCEPT AMERICA AND RUSSIA):
Five six seven eight nine-
RUSSIA:
There are ten things you need to know
COMPANY:
Number one!
RUSSIA:
We rowed across the Hudson at dawn
My friend, Yao Wang signed on as my-
RUSSIA AND COMPANY:
Number two!
RUSSIA:
Jones arrived with his crew:
Matthew Willams (evil laughter) and a doctor that he knew
COMPANY:
Number three!
RUSSIA:
I watched Jones examine the terrain
I wish I could tell you what was happ'ning in his brain
This man has poisoned my political pursuits!
COMPANY:
Most disputes die and no one shoots!
Number four!
RUSSIA:
Jones drew first position
Looking, to the world, like a man on a mission
This is a soldier with a marksman's ability
The doctor turned around so he could have deniability
COMPANY
Five!
RUSSIA:
Now I didn't know this at the time
But we were-
RUSSIA/ BOSTON/ AMERICA:
Near the same spot Near the same spot
Your kid died, is that My child died, is that
Why- Why-
COMPANY:
Six!
RUSSIA:
He examined his gun with such rigor?
I watched as he methodically fiddled with the trigger
COMPANY:
Seven!
RUSSIA:
Confession time? here's what I got:
My fellow nations'll tell you I'm a terrible shot
COMPANY:
Number eight!
RUSSIA/AMERICA/ENSEMBLE MEN:
Your last chance to negotiate
Send in your seconds, see if they can set the record straight
RUSSIA:
They won't teach you this in your classes
But look it up, Jones was wearing his glasses
Why? If not to take deadly aim?
It's him or me, the world will never be the same
I had only one thought before the slaughter:
This man will not make an orphan, I'm a father! (Latvia if anyone's wondering)
COMPANY:
Number nine!
RUSSIA:
Look him in the eye, aim no higher
Summon all the courage you require
Then count:
COMPANY:
One two three four five six seven eight nine
Number ten paces! Fire!-
AMERICA:
I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
Is this where it gets me, on my feet, sev'ral feet ahead of me?
I see it coming, do I run or fire my gun or let it be?
There is no beat, no melody
Braganski, my first friend, my enemy (Historically Accurate)
Maybe the last face I ever see
If I throw away my shot, is this how you'll remember me?
What if this bullet is my legacy?
Legacy. What is a legacy?
It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see
I wrote some notes at the beginning of a song someone will sing for me
Eternity, you great unfinished symphony, you sent for me (It wouldn't make sense if he sings America, That's him... Him dying would finish America so Eternity works)
You let me make a difference
A place where even orphan immigrants
Can leave their fingerprints and rise up
I'm running out of time. I'm running, and my time's up
Wise up. Eyes up
I catch a glimpse of the other side
Gilbert leads a soldiers' chorus on the other side
My daughter is on the other side
She's with my mother on the other side (Boston and Native America)
Washington is watching from the other side (It makes sense for him. Since he is the highest ranking American Officer in history and would act as a father to America, like he did to Hamilton)
Teach me how to say goodbye
Rise up, rise up, rise up
Allen (2p America cause I'm in the mood for Veggie Burgers)
My love, take your time
I'll see you on the other side
Raise a glass to freedom...
RUSSIA AND COMPANY:
He aims his pistol at the sky-
RUSSIA:
Wait!
RUSSIA:
I strike him right between his ribs
I walk towards him, but I am ushered away
They row him back across the Hudson
I get a drink
COMPANY:
Aaaah
Aaaah
Aaaah
RUSSIA:
I hear wailing in the streets
COMPANY:
Aaaah
Aaaah
Aaaah
RUSSIA:
Somebody tells me, "You'd better hide."
COMPANY:
Aaaah
Aaaah
Aaaah
RUSSIA:
They say
RUSSIA AND 2P CANADA:
Matt and Allen- (ALSO MATTHEW OKAY?)
RUSSIA:
Were both at his side when he died
Death doesn't discriminate
Between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
History obliterates
In every picture it paints
It paints me and all my mistakes
When Alfred aimed
At the sky
He may have been the first one to die
But I'm the one who paid for it
I survived, but I paid for it
Now I'm the villain in your history
I was too young and blind to see...
I should've known
I should've known
The world was wide enough for both Jones and me
The world was wide enough for both Jones and me....
