Ah, Mr. Secretary!
Mr. Burr, Sir.
Did you hear the news about good old General Mercer?
No.
You know Claremont street?
Yeah.
They renamed it after him,
The Mercer legacy is secure.
Sure
And all he had to do is die.
And that's a lot less work!
We ought to give it a try.
Heh
And how you gonna get your debt plan through?
I guess i'm gonna have to finally listen to you.
Really?
Talk less
Smile more
Haha!
Do whatever it takes to get my plan on the congress floor.
Now Madison and Jefferson are merciless.
Well, hate the sin love the sinner.
Hamilton!
I'm sorry Burr I gotta go,
But decisions are happening over dinner.
Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
Diametrically opposed
Foes
They emerge with a compromise having open doors that were
Previously closed
Bros
The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
A system he can shape however he wants.
The Virginians emerge with the nation's capital
And here's the pièce de résistance.
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one really knows how the game is played
The art of the trade
How the sausage gets made.
We just assume that it happens
But no one else is in the room where it happens.
Thomas claims
Alexander was on Washington's doorstep one day in distress and disarray
Thomas claims
Alexander said, "I've nowhere else to turn"
And basically begged me to join the fray
Thomas claims
I approached Madison and said
"I know you hate him but let's hear what he has to say"
Thomas claims
Well, I arranged the meeting
I arranged the menu, the venue, the seating
But
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened.
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened.
No one really knows how the parties get to "Yes"
The pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess
We just assume that it happens
But no else else is in the room where it happens
Meanwhile
Madison is grappling with the fact that
not every issue can be settled by committee
Meanwhile
Congress is fighting over where to put the capital
(Yells a bunch of different cities)
It isn't pretty
Jefferson approaches with the dinner in invite
Madison responds with Virginian insight
Maybe we could solve one problem with another
And win a victory for the Southerners
In other words
Ho ho
A quid pro quo
I suppose
Wouldn't you like to work a little closer to home?
Actually, I would
Well, I propose the Potomac
And you'll provide him his votes?
Well, we'll see how it goes
Let's go
NO!
...one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened.
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened.
My God, In God We Trust
But we never really know what got discussed.
Click BOOM then it happened
But no one else was in the room where it happened.
Alexander Hamilton
What did they say to you to get you to sell
New York City down the river.
Alexander Hamilton
Did Washington know about the dinner.
Was there Presidential pressure to deliver?
Alexander Hamilton
Or did you know even then it doesn't matter
where you put the U.S. capitol?
Cause we'll have the banks, we're in the same spot.
You got more than you gave
And I wanted what I got.
When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
But you don't get a win unless you play in the game.
Oh, you get love for it.
You get hate for it.
But you get nothing if you
"wait for it, wait for it, wait"
God help and forgive me
I wanna build something that's gonna outlive me
What do you want Burr?
What do you want Burr?
If you stand for nothing then what'll you fall for?
I...
I wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
I... I wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
I... I wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
The art of the compromise
Hold your nose and close your eyes
We want our leaders to save the day
But we don't get a say in what they trade away
We dream of a brand new start
But we dream in the dark for the most part
Dark as a tomb where it happens
I've got to be in the room
The room where it happens
I've got to be
The room where it happens
I've got to be
The room where it happens
I've got to be in the room
The room where it happens
I gotta be
I gotta be
I've got to be in the room
I wanna be in the room
I wanna be in the room where it happens
CLICK BOOM!!!
