Satisfied

Alright, alright

That's what I'm talkin' about

Now, everyone give it up for the maid of honor

Angelica Schuyler

A toast to the groom (to the groom, to the groom, to the groom)

To the bride (to the bride, to the bride, to the bride)

From your sister (Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)

Who is always by your side (by your side, by your side)

To your union (to the union, to the revolution)

And the hope that you provide (you provide, you provide)

May you always (always)

Be satisfied (rewind)

Rewind, rewind

Helpless, sky's, sky's

Drownin' in em

Drownin', rewind

I remember that night I just might (rewind)

I remember that night I just might (rewind)

I remember that night, I remember that–

I remember that night, I just might regret that night for the rest of my days

I remember those soldier boys tripping over themselves to win our praise

I remember that dreamlike candlelight like a dream that you can't quite place

But Alexander, I'll never forget the first time I saw your face

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'ma 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

But when I fantasize at night it's Alexander's eyes

As I romanticize what might have been if I hadn't sized him up so quickly

At least my dear Eliza's his wife

At least I keep his eyes in my life

To the groom (to the groom, to the groom, to the groom)

To the bride (to the bride, to the bride, to the bride)

From your sister (Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)

Who is always by your side (by your side, by your side)

To your union (to the union, to the revolution)

And the hope that you provide (you provide, you provide)

May you always (always)

Be satisfied (be satisfied, be satisfied, be satisfied)

And I know (be satisfied, be satisfied, be satisfied)

She'll be happy as his bride (be satisfied, be satisfied, be satisfied)

And I know (be satisfied, be satisfied, be satisfied)

He will never be satisfied

I will never be satisfied
