"The Schuyler Sisters"
[Burr:]
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
Take Philip Schuyler: the man is loaded
Uh-oh, but little does he know that
His daughters, Peggy, Angelica, Eliza
Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at
[Company:]
Work, work!
[Angelica:]
Angelica!
[Company:]
Work, work!
[Eliza:]
Eliza!
[Peggy:]
And Peggy!
[Company:]
Work, work!
The Schuyler sisters!
[Angelica:]
Angelica!
[Peggy:]
Peggy!
[Eliza:]
Eliza!
[Company:]
Work!
[Peggy:]
Daddy said to be home by sundown
[Angelica:]
Daddy doesn't need to know
[Peggy:]
Daddy said not to go downtown
[Eliza:]
Like I said, you're free to go
[Angelica:]
But look around, look around
The revolution's happening in New York
[Eliza/Peggy:]
New York
[Company:]
Angelica
[Schuyler Sisters and company:]
Work!
[Peggy:]
It's bad enough daddy wants to go to war
[Eliza:]
People shouting in the square
[Peggy:]
It's bad enough there'll be violence on our shore
[Angelica:]
New ideas in the air
[Angelica and Male Ensemble:]
Look around, look around
[Eliza:]
