Aaron Burr : There's nothing like summer in the city/Someone in a rush next to someone looking pretty/Excuse me, miss, I know it's not funny, but your perfume smells like your daddy's got money/Why you slummin' in the city in your fancy heels? You searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals?

Alexander Hamilton : I wish I could say that was the last time/I said that last time/It became a pastime/A month into this endeavor/I received a letter from a Mr. James Reynolds, even better/It said:
James Reynolds : Dear sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health/And in a prosperous enough position/To put wealth in the pockets of people like me/Down on they luck/You see, that was my wife/Who you decided to...
Alexander Hamilton : Fu...
James Reynolds : Uh-oh/You made the wrong sucker a cuckold/So time to pay the piper/For the pants you unbuckled/And, hey, you can keep seein' my whore wife if the price is right/If not, I'm telling your wife.
Alexander Hamilton : I hid the letter and I raced to her place/Screamed "how could you?" in her face/She said...
Maria Reynolds : No, sir.
Alexander Hamilton : Half-dressed, apologetic/A mess, she looked pathetic, she cried:
Maria Reynolds : Please don't go, sir.
Alexander Hamilton : So was your whole story a setup?
Maria Reynolds : I don't know about any letter!
