gerard alessandrini - lin-manuel as hamilton كلمات الأغنية

[leslie odom jr.]
how does a whippersnapper
student of rap and a latin
trapped in the middle of a manhattan flat
win broadway accolades
while other writers kiss the corporate dollar
grow up to be a hip hop opera scholar?

[daveed diggs]
this blue collar shining beacon peurto rican
got a lot farther
by being a lot smarter
by stretching rhymes harder
by being a trend starter
by fourteen, they placed him in a school with a music charter

[leslie odom jr.]
and everyday while shows were being slaughtered on broadway
they played, he stayed away
he struggled, but in an odd way
inside, he was longing to build a better broadway
the brother was ready to cut clean in the sweeney todd way

[okeiriete onadowan]
his first hurricane came and in the heights the name
our man wrote his future hit sittin’ on a train
put a pencil to his temple and stuck it into his brain
and he wrote his first refrain while hollerin’ out in pain

[leslie odom jr.]
well, the word got around they said
“this kid is insane, man!”
on closer inspection he’s a salsa hip hop main man
broadway’s been less cr-ppy since the happy day you came
and the world’s gonna know your name
what’s your game man?

[lin-manuel miranda]
lin-manuel as hamilton
that’s me i’m lin-manuel as hamilton
and there’s a million songs i haven’t trashed
but just you wait
just you wait

[renée elise goldsberry]
when he was ten he saw camelot it was hot
but led in ten years later saw spamelot
and where broadway was heading
half dead with a campus so thick it looked sick

[everyone]
he swore he would fix it but he wasn’t so quick

[okieriete onadowan]
he saw little mermaid it made him
think of suicide
disney was nothing but goo inside
he felt blue inside
a voice saying
“you gotta rap for yourself”
he started snapping and rapping
every record on the shelf

[renée elise goldsberry]
he started taping and making mixes quite astute
after he read a book of great repute about the const-tution

[daveed diggs]
started working
perking
a hip hop mixtape
he mixed up history and himself and now he can’t escape

[leslie odom jr.]
it’s a half history book, half aragon buy on
now, he’s the future he’s a theatre icon
he’s half hamilton, half can of cold spam

[renée elise goldsberry]
but in new york he can be a real ham

[everyone] [lin-manuel miranda]
in new york you can
be a real ham just you wait…
or you can be a
can of cold spam just you wait…

[leslie odom jr.]
it’s your choice, hamilton
hamlet or ham?

[renée elise goldsberry (men) ]
in new york (new york)

[lin-manuel miranda]
just you wait!

[renée elise goldsberry (men) ]
lin-manuel as hamilton (‘tis a ham in spamilton)
fame is waiting in the wings for you

[everyone (leslie odom jr.) ]
you may have left town
you must have needed some downtime
you left the show as hamilton (you left the show as hamilton)
but spamilton clings to you
will they know we misquote your name?
will they know we rewrote your fame?
your score will never be the same oh

[leslie odom jr.]
the tiny doll we got from props is coming, can you spot him?
forgive the flimsy plastic boat, our budget’s at the bottom

[okieriete onadowan]
the barbie lin-manuel just fell!

[renée elise goldsberry]
thank god somebody caught him!

[daveed diggs]
me? i save his -ss

[renée elise goldsberry]
me? i give him s-ss

[okieriete onadowan]
me? i’m full of gas

[leslie odom jr.]
me? i’m the d-mn fool who slays him

[lin-manuel as hamilton]
me? i’m the d-mn fool who plays him!

[everyone]
and there’s a dozen songs we haven’t trashed
but just you wait!

[leslie odom jr.]
who we spoofin’, man?

[everyone]
lin-manuel as hamilton!
