Non Stop Song Lyrics
After the war I went back to New YorkA-after the war I went back to New YorkI finished up my studies and I practiced lawI practiced law, Burr worked next door
Even though we started at the very same timeAlexander Hamilton began to climbHow to account for his rise to the top?Man, the man is non-stop
Gentlemen of the jury, I’m curious, bear with meAre you aware that we’re making hist’ry?This is the first murder trial of our brand-new nationThe liberty behind deliberation (Non-stop!)I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubtWith my assistant counsel
Co-counselHamilton, sit downOur client Levi Weeks is innocentCall your first witnessThat’s all you had to say
OkayOne more thing–
Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room?Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room?Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room?Soon that attitude may be your doom!
Why do you write like you’re running out of time?Write day and night like you’re running out of time?Every day you fight, like you’re running out of timeKeep on fighting, in the meantime-(Non-stop!)
Corruption’s such an old song that we can singAlong in harmony and nowhere is it strongerThan in AlbanyThis colony’s economy’s increasingly stalling andHonestly that’s why he’s just public service seemsTo be calling me (Non-stop!)
I practiced the law, I practically perfected itI’ve seen injustice in the world and I’ve corrected itNow for a strong central democracyIf not, then I’ll be SocratesThrowing verbal rocks at these mediocrities
Hamilton, at the Constitutional ConventionI was chosen for the Constitutional ConventionThere as a New York junior delegateNow what I’m going to say may sound indelicate
Goes and proposes his own form of government (What?)His own plan for a new form of government (What?)Talks for six hours, the convention is listlessBright young manYo, who the eff is this?
Why do you always say what you believe?Why do you always say what you believe?Every proclamation guaranteesFree ammunition for your enemies (Awww!)
Why do you write like it’s going out of style? (Hey)Write day and night like it’s going out of style? (Hey)Every day you fight like it’s going out of styleDo what you do
Alexander?Aaron Burr, sirWell, it’s the middle of the nightCan we confer, sir?Is this a legal matter?Yes, and it’s important to meWhat do you need?
Burr, you’re a better lawyer than meOkayI know I talk too much, I’m abrasiveYou’re incredible in courtYou’re succinct, persuasiveMy client needs a strong defenseYou’re the solution
Who’s your client?The new U.S. Constitution?NoHear me outNo way!A series of essays, anonymously publishedDefending the document to the public
No one will read itI disagreeAnd if it fails?Burr, that’s why we need itThe constitution’s a messSo it needs amendmentsIt’s full of contradictionsSo is independenceWe have to start somewhereNo, no wayYou’re making a mistake
Good nightHeyWhat are you waiting for?What do you stall for? (What?)We won the warWhat was it all for?Do you support this constitution?Of courseThen defend it
And what if you’re backing the wrong horse?Burr, we studied and we fought and we killedFor the notion of a nation we now get to buildFor once in your life, take a stand with prideI don’t understand how you stand to the side
I’ll keep all my plans close to my chest(Wait for it, wait for it, wait)I’ll wait here and see which way the wind will blowI’m taking my time, watching the afterbirth of a nationWatching the tension growI am sailing off to LondonI am accompanied by someone who always paysI have found a wealthy husband who willKeep me in comfort for all my daysHe is not a lot of fun, but there’s no oneWho can match you for turn of phraseMy AlexanderAngelicaDon’t forget to write
Look at where you areLook at where you startedThe fact that you’re alive is a miracleJust stay alive, that would be enoughAnd if your wife could share a fraction of your timeIf I could grant you peace of mindWould that be enough?
Alexander joins forces with James MadisonAnd John Jay to write a series of essaysDefending the new United States ConstitutionEntitled The Federalist PapersThe plan was to write a total of 25 essaysThe work divided evenly among the three menIn the end, they wrote 85 essaysIn the span of six monthsJohn Jay got sick after writing fiveJames Madison wrote 29Hamilton wrote the other 51
How do you write like you’re running out of time? (Running out of time?)Write day and night like you’re running out of time? (Running out of time?)Every day you fight, like you’re running out of timeLike you’re running out of timeAre you running out of time? Awwww!
How do you write like tomorrow won’t arrive?How do you write like you need it to survive?How do you write every second you’re alive?Every second you’re alive? Every second you’re alive?
They’re asking me to leadI am doing the best I canTo get the people that I needI’m asking you to be my right-hand man (Treasury or State?)I know it’s a lot to ask (Treasury or State?)To leave behind the world you know
Sir, do you want me to run the Treasury or State department?TreasuryLet’s go
AlexanderI have to leaveAlexander–Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right nowHelpless
They are asking me to leadLook around, isn’t this enough?He never will be satisfied (What would be enough)He will never be satisfied (To be satisfied)Satisfied, satisfied
History has its eyes on you (Look around)Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room?Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room? (Non-stop)
Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room? (Non-stop)Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room? (History has its eyes)Why do you fight like you’re running out of time? (Non-stop)Why do you fight like
History has its eyes on youI am not throwin’ away my shot (Just you wait)I am not throwin’ away my shot (Just you wait)I am Alexander HamiltonHamilton, just you waitI am not throwin’ away my shot
