[FULL COMPANY]

The election of 1800

[JEFFERSON]

Can we get back to politics?

[MADISON]

Please?

[JEFFERSON]

Yo. Ev'ry action has an equal, opposite reaction

Jen Adams shat the bed. I love the guy, but she's in traction

Poor Alexandra Hamilton? She is missing in action

So now I'm facing—

[JEFFERSON AND MADISON]

Erin Burr!

[JEFFERSON]

With her own faction

[MADISON]

She's very attractive in the North. New Yorkers like her chances

[JEFFERSON]

She's not very forthcoming on any particular stances

[MADISON]

Ask her a question: it glances off, she obfuscates, she dances

[JEFFERSON]

And they say I'm a Francophile: at least they know I know where France is!

[MADISON]

Therese that's the problem, see, they see Burr as a less extreme you

[JEFFERSON]

Ha!

[MADISON]

You need to change course, a key endorsement might redeem you

[JEFFERSON]

Who did you have in mind?

[MADISON]

Don't laugh

[JEFFERSON]

Who is it?

[MADISON]

You used to work on the same staff

[JEFFERSON]

Whaaaat

[MADISON]

It might be nice, it might be nice

To get Hamilton on your side

[JEFFERSON AND MADISON]

It might be nice, it might be nice

To get Hamilton on your side

[BURR& ENSEMBLE]

Talk less!

Burr!

Smile more!

Burr!

Don't let 'em know what you're against or what you're for!

Burr!

Shake hands with her!

Burr!

Charm him!

Burr!

It's eighteen hundred, ladies, tell your fam'ly: vote for

Burr!

[MALE VOTER]

I don't like Adams

[FEMALE VOTER]

Well, he's gonna lose, that's just defeatist
