About

Multiple motifs from “The Schuyler Sisters”—both Burr’s part and the sisters'—recur here in an arch reprise. Instead of the Schuyler family being on the pulse of politics, they’re being forced out.

Schuyler Defeated Lyrics

[PHILIP]
Look!
Grandpa’s in the paper!
“War hero Philip Schuyler loses senate seat to young upstart Aaron Burr”
Grandpa just lost his seat in the senate

[ELIZA]
Sometimes that’s how it goes

[PHILIP]
Daddy’s gonna find out any minute

[ELIZA]
I’m sure he already knows

[PHILIP]
Further down

[PHILIP & ELIZA]
Further down

[PHILIP]
Let’s meet the newest senator from New York

[ELIZA]
New York

[PHILIP & ELIZA]
Our senator

[HAMILTON]
Burr?
Since when are you a Democratic-Republican?

[BURR]
Since being one put me on the up and up again

[HAMILTON]
No one knows who you are or what you do

[BURR]
They don’t need to know me
They don’t like you

[HAMILTON]
Excuse me?

[BURR]
Oh, Wall Street thinks you’re great
You’ll always be adored by the things you create
But upstate—

[HAMILTON]
Wait

[BURR]
—people think you’re crooked
Schuyler’s seat was up for grabs so I took it

[HAMILTON]
I’ve always considered you a friend

[BURR]
I don’t see why that has to end

[HAMILTON]
You changed parties to run against my father-in-law

[BURR]
I changed parties to seize the opportunity I saw
I swear your pride will be the death of us all
Beware, it goeth before the fall
