          [AARON BURR]
          How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore and a
          Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten
          Spot in the Caribbean by providence, impoverished, in squalor
          Grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
          
          [JOHN LAURENS]
          The ten-dollar Founding Father without a father
          Got a lot farther by working a lot harder
          By being a lot smarter
          By being a self-starter
          By fourteen, they placed him in charge of a trading charter
          
          [THOMAS JEFFERSON]
          And every day while slaves were being slaughtered and carted
          Away across the waves, he struggled and kept his guard up
          Inside, he was longing for something to be a part of
          The brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow, or barter
          
          [JAMES MADISON]
          Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned
          Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain
          Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain
          And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain
          
          [BURR]
          Well, the word got around, they said, “This kid is insane, man”
          Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland
          “Get your education, don’t forget from whence you came, and
          The world's gonna know your name. What’s your name, man?”
          
          [ALEXANDER HAMILTON]
          Alexander Hamilton
          My name is Alexander Hamilton
          And there’s a million things I haven’t done
          But just you wait, just you wait...
          
          [ELIZA HAMILTON]
          When he was ten his father split, full of it, debt-ridden
          Two years later, see Alex and his mother bed-ridden
          Half-dead sittin' in their own sick, the scent thick
          
          [FULL COMPANY EXCEPT HAMILTON (whispering)]
          And Alex got better but his mother went quick
          
          [GEORGE WASHINGTON]
          Moved in with a cousin, the cousin committed suicide
          Left him with nothin’ but ruined pride, something new inside
          A voice saying
          
          [WASHINGTON]
          “You gotta fend for yourself.”	[COMPANY]
          “Alex, you gotta fend for yourself.”
          [WASHINGTON]
          He started retreatin’ and readin’ every treatise on the shelf
          
          [BURR]
          There would have been nothin’ left to do
          For someone less astute
          He wou
