First Day on Broadway

Start from the beginning
                                        

I have never been the same
Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
And when you said, "Hi," I forgot my dang name
Set my heart aflame, every part aflame
This is not a game...
You strike me as a woman who has never been satisfied
I'm sure I don't know what you mean
You forget yourself
You're like me
I'm never satisfied
Is that right?
I've never been satisfied
My name is Angelica Schuyler
Alexander Hamilton
Where's your family from?
Unimportant
There's a million things I haven't done
but just you wait, just you wait...

So so so... so this is what it feels like to match wits
With someone at your level! What the hell is the catch?
It's the feeling of freedom, of seein' the light
It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite!
You see it, right?

The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes
Everything we said in total agreement, it's
A dream and it's a bit of a dance
A bit of a posture, it's a bit of a stance

He's a bit of a flirt, but I'm 'a give it a chance
I asked about his family. Did you see his answer?
His hands started fidgeting, he looked askance?
He's penniless, he's flying by the seat of his pants

Handsome. Boy, does he know it?
Peach fuzz, and he can't even grow it!
I wanna take him far away from this place
Then I turn and see my sister's face
And she is...

Helpless
And I know she is...
Helpless...
And her eyes are just...
Helpless...
And I realize
Three fundamental truths at the exact same time...

Where are you taking me?
I'm about to change your life
Then by all means, lead the way

Number One
I'm a girl in a world in which
My only job is to marry rich
My father has no sons so I'm the one
Who has to social climb for one
So I'm the oldest and the wittiest and the gossip in
New York City is insidious
And Alexander is penniless
Ha! That doesn't mean I want him any less

Elizabeth Schuyler. It's a pleasure to meet you
Schuyler?
My sister

Number two!
He's after me 'cause I'm a Schuyler sister
That elevates his status, I'd
Have to be naïve to set that aside
Maybe that is why
I introduce him to Eliza
Now that's his bride
Nice going, Angelica, he was right
You will never be satisfied

Thank you for all your service
If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it
I'll leave you to it

Number three!
I know my sister like I know my own mind
You will never find
Anyone as trusting or as kind
If I tell her that I love him she'd be silently resigned
He'd be mine
She would say, "I'm fine."
She'd be lying
