## Lyrics

### Original Lyrics

 Take Phillip Schuyler; the man is loaded
 [Men] Work, work!
[Angelica] Angelica!
[Men] Work, work!
[Eliza] Eliza!
[Peggy] And Peggy! (Work, work!)
[Men] Work, work! The Schuyler sisters!
[Angelica] Angelica!
[Peggy] Peggy!
[Eliza] Eliza!
 [Peggy] Daddy said to be home by sundown
 [Angelica] But—look around, look around, the Revolution's happening in New York
 [Peggy] It's bad enough Daddy wants to go to war
 [Angelica, Male Ensamble] Look around, look around
[Eliza] Angelica, remind me what we're looking for...[Men] She's looking for me!
[Angelica] Eliza, I'm looking for a mind at work
[Men] Work, work!
[Angelica] I'm looking for a mind at work
[Men] Work, work!
[Angelica] I'm looking for a mind at work
[Men] Work, work!
[Angelica] Woah! Woah!
[Schuyler Sisters] Woah! Woah!
 [Burr] Wooh, there's nothing like summer in the city
Someone in a rush next to someone looking prettyExcuse me, miss, I know it's not funnyBut your perfume smells like your daddy's got moneyWhy you slummin' in the city in your fancy heelsYou searching for an urchin who can give you ideals?
[Angelica] Burr, you disgust me
[Burr] Ah, so you've discussed me
 [Angelica] I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine
Some men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
You want a revolution? I want a revelation
So listen to my declaration:
[Schuyler Sisters] "We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal"
[Angelica] And when I meet Thomas Jefferson
Im'a compel him to include women in the sequel
 [Eliza] Look around, look around
At how lucky we are to be alive right now
[Eliza, Peggy] Look around, look around, at how lucky we are to be alive right now
[Schuyler Sisters] History is happening in Manhattan
And we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world
 [Angelica] 'Cause I've been reading *Common Sense* by Thomas Paine
[Eliza, Peggy] (Look around, look around)
[Angelica] So men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
 [Angelica] You want a revolution? I want a revelation
[Woman] (Look around, look around)
Eliza, Peggy] (New York! In New York!)
[Woman] (The revolution's happening)
 [Schuyler Sisters] We hold these truths to be self-evident
[Female Ensamble] (Look around, look around)
[Schuyler Sisters] That all men are created equal
 [Company] Look around, look around
At how lucky we are to be alive right now
History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be
[Woman] In the greatest city in the world!
 [Men] Work, work!
[Angelica] Angelica!
[Men] Work, work!
[Eliza] Eliza!
[Peggy] And Peggy!
[Men] Work, work!
[Schuyler Sisters] The Schuyler sisters!
[Men] Work, work!
[Schuyler Sisters] We're looking for a mind at work
[Men] Work, work!
[Schuyler Sisters] Hey!
[Men] Work, work!
[Schuyler Sisters] Hey!
 [Angelica] Woah!
[Men] Work, work!
[Angelica] In the greatest city in the world!
[Men] Work, work!
[Eliza, Peggy] In the greatest city in the world!
 [Company] In the greatest city in the world!
