[SAMUEL SEABURY]
Hear ye, hear ye!
My name is Samuel Seabury, and I present
"Free thoughts on the proceedings of the Continental Congress!"
Heed not the rabble who scream revolution
They have not your interest at heart
[MULLIGAN]
Oh my god.
Tear this dude apart
[SEABURY]
Chaos and bloodshed are not a solution
Don't let them lead you astray
This congress does not speak for me
[BURR]
Let him be
[SEABURY]
They're playing a dangerous game
I pray the king shows you his mercy
For shame, for shame!
[HAMILTON]
Yo!
[SEABURY]
Heed not the rabble who
[HAMILTON]
He'd have you all unravel at the sound of screams
[SEABURY]
Scream—
[HAMILTON]
But the revolution
[SEABURY]
Revolution—
[HAMILTON]
Is comin'
[SEABURY]
They have not your interests
[HAMILTON]
The have-nots are gonna win this
[SEABURY]
At heart—
[HAMILTON]
It's hard to listen to you with a straight face
[SEABURY]
Chaos and—
[HAMILTON]
Chaos and bloodshed
[SEABURY]
Bloodshed are not—
[HAMILTON]
Already haunt us
[SEABURY]
A solution—
[HAMILTON]
Honestly, you shouldn't even talk—
[SEABURY]
Don't let them lead you astray—
[HAMILTON]
And what about Boston?
Look at the cost of all that we've lost
And you talk about Congress?
[SEABURY]
This Congress does not speak for me
[HAMILTON]
My dog speaks more eloquently than thee
[SEABURY]
You're playing a dangerous game
[HAMILTON]
But strangely, your mange is the same!
[SEABURY]
I pray the king shows you his mercy
[HAMILTON]
Is he in Jersey?
[SEABURY]
For shame—
[HAMILTON]
For the Revolution!
[SEABURY]
For shame!
[COMPANY]
For the Revolution!
[SEABURY]
Heed—
[HAMILTON]
If you repeat yourself again I'm gonna
[SEABURY & HAMILTON]
Scream—
[HAMILTON]
Honestly, look at me, please don't read!
[SEABURY]
Not your interest—
[HAMILTON and (COMPANY)]
Don't modulate the key then not debate with me (laughter)
Why should a tiny island across the sea
Regulate the price of tea?
[BURR]
Alexander, please!
[HAMILTON]
Burr, I'd rather be divisive than indecisive
Drop the niceties
[ENSEMBLE]
Silence!
A message from the King!
A message from the King!
[FULL COMPANY]
A message from the King!
