Guns and Ships (MA FAVORITE SONG!)

How does a ragtag, volunteer army in need of a shower, somehow defeat a global superpower? How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire, leave the battlefield waving Betsy Ross' flag higher?

Yo, turns out we have a secret weapon, an immigrant you know and love, who's unafraid to step in, he's constantly confusing confounding the British Henchmen, everyone give it up for America's favorite fighting Frenchman!
                                                                                                                                                                      LAFAYETTE
I'm taking this horse by the reins, making redcoats redder with bloodstains, and I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em drop, burn 'em and and scatter the remains I'm, 
                                                                                                                                                                      LAFAYETTE
Watch me engagin' 'em, escapin' 'em, enragin' 'em, I'm
                                                                                                                                                                      LAFAYETTE
I got to France for more funds
                                                                                                                                                                      LAFAYETTE
I'm come back with more guns, and ships, and so the balance shifts
We rendezvous with Rochambeau consolidate their gifts
We can end this war in Yorktown, cut them off at sea, but, for this to succeed, there is someone else we need
I know
                                                                                                                                                                       HAMILTON
Sir, he knows what to do in the trench, ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean
                                                                                                                                                                       HAMILTON
Sir, you're gonna have to use him eventually, what's he gonna do on the bench, I mean,
                                                                                                                                                                       HAMILTON
No one has more resilience, or matches my practical tactical brilliance!
                                                                                                                                                                       HAMILTON
You want to fight for your land back?
I need my right hand man back,
Get your right hand man back
You know you gotta get your right hand man back
I know you gotta put some thought into the letter but the sooner the better to get your right hand man back!

Alexander Hamilton, troops are waiting in the field for you, if you join us right now, together we can turn the tide, 
Oh, Alexander Hamilton, I have soldiers that'll yield for you, if we manage to get this right, they'll surrender by early light, 

The world will never be the same, Alexander. . .
