You ever see a painting by John Trumbull?

John Trumbull
[BURR]
Founding fathers in a line, looking all humble
[ENSEMBLE]
All humble
[BURR]
Patiently waiting to sign a declaration, to start a nation
No sign of disagreement, not one grumble
[ENSEMBLE]
One grumble
[BURR]
The reality is messier and richer, kids
The reality is not a pretty picture, kids
Every cabinet meeting is a full on rumble
What you 'bout to see is no John Trumbull
[ENSEMBLE]

Ladies and gentlemen, you coulda been anywhere in the world tonight
But you’re here with us in New York City

[COMPANY cheers.]

Gentlemen, Vice President John Adams sends his regards
He won't be joining us
He had to be home in Massachusetts for family reasons
[MADISON]
Tell him to stay home!
[HAMILTON]
He can do the same amount from there!
[WASHINGTON]
Alright, alright, settle down!
Now...
