A Winter's Ball

How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore
Go on and on, grow into more of a phenomenon?
Watch this obnoxious, arrogant, loudmouth bother
Be seated at the right hand of the father

Washington hires Hamilton right on sight
But Hamilton still wants to fight, not write
Now Hamilton's skill with a quill is undeniable
But what do we have in common?

We're reliable with the
Ladies!
There are so many to deflower!
Ladies!
Looks! Proximity to power
Ladies!
They delighted and distracted him
Martha Washington named her feral tomcat after him
(That's true)

1780, a winter's ball
And the Schuyler sisters are the envy of all
Yo, if you could marry a sister, you're rich, son
Is it a question of if, Burr, or which one?

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
