The Schuyler Sisters
[00:02.86] There's nothing rich folks love more
[00:04.58] Than going downtown and slummin' it with the poor
[00:07.46] They pull up in their carriages and gawk
[00:09.19] At the students in the commons just to watch 'em talk
[00:11.77] Take Philip Schuyler, the man is loaded
[00:14.25] Whoa-oh, but little does he know
[00:16.18] That his daughters, Peggy, Angelica, Eliza
[00:18.74] Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at
[00:21.12] (Work, work!) Angelica!
[00:23.52] (Work, work!) Eliza!
[00:25.68] And Peggy! (Work, work!)
[00:26.87] The Schuyler sisters!
[00:28.14] Angelica, Peggy, Eliza! Work!
[00:30.96] Daddy said to be home by sundown
[00:33.36] Daddy doesn't need to know
[00:35.65] Daddy said not to go downtown
[00:37.90] Like I said, you're free to go
[00:39.86] But look around, look around
[00:42.01] The revolution's happening in New York (New York)
[00:47.17] Angelica, work!
[00:49.73] It's bad enough Daddy wants to go to war
[00:52.18] People shouting in the square
[00:54.41] It's bad enough there'll be violence on our shore
[00:56.84] New ideas in the air
[00:59.22] Look around, look around
[01:01.11] Angelica, remind me what we're looking for
[01:04.97] She's looking for me
[01:06.37] Eliza, I'm looking for a mind at work (work)
[01:09.26] I'm looking for a mind at work (work)
[01:11.51] I'm looking for a mind at work (work)
[01:13.97] Whoa-woah
[01:15.23] Whoa-woah, work!
[01:17.20] Ooh, there's nothing like summer in the city
[01:20.03] Someone in a rush next to someone looking pretty
[01:22.42] Excuse me, miss, I know it's not funny
[01:24.47] But your perfume smells like your daddy's got money
[01:26.89] Why you slummin' in the city in your fancy heels?
[01:29.30] You searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals?
[01:31.81] Burr, you disgust me
[01:32.82] Ah, so you've discussed me
[01:34.52] I'm a trust fund, baby, you could trust me
[01:36.90] I've been reading "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine
[01:39.19] So men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
[01:41.46] You want a revolution, I want a revelation
[01:44.16] So listen to my declaration
[01:45.94] "We hold these truths to be self evident
[01:48.21] That all men are created equal"
[01:50.47] And when I met Thomas Jefferson (oh!)
[01:52.11] I'ma compel him to include women in the sequel! (Work!)
[01:55.72] Look around, look around
[01:57.54] How lucky we are to be alive right now
[02:00.44] Look around, look around
[02:02.11] At how lucky we are to be alive right now
[02:05.05] History is happening in Manhattan
[02:07.78] And we're just happen to be
[02:09.24] In the greatest city in the world
[02:11.66] In the greatest city in the world
