The lyrics for all 8 Hamilton Children (as seen at today’s #Ham4Ham show) lyrics by Morgan Marcell & Lin-Manuel Miranda
ANGELICA:
My name is Angie, you wouldn’t know it
Unless you listened to my brother, he’s a poet. Even tho, he’s older at the time, I can play piano better plus I can rhyme! Of course, I have a nervous breakdown when he dies!
I play piano and everybody cries!
A sister sibling seems pretty great
When you find out our parents had 8!
ALEX JR:
I’m Alex Junior, I’m on a journey
I grow up to be a famous attorney But revenge is a sweet final course
I rep Aaron Burr’s second wife when they divorce!
JAMES ALEXANDER:
The name’s James Alexander, I’m a lawyer too!
I had five kids like Tevye, with a boy or two!
No time for relaxin,
Cuz I’m secretary of state for Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson!
JOHN CHURCH:
Yo I’m John Church, I win the pennant!
Fought the war of eighteen twelve, second lieutenant!
And I’m the one who brought us glory!
I kept my mother’s promise and I wrote Dad’s story!
WILLIAM STEPHEN:
Hey, the name’s William Stephen and I COLD CRUSH!
I moved to California for the gold rush!
I’m a screamer, I’m a shouter, I’m a hollerer!
I died in Sacramento, most likely of CHOLERA!
ELIZABETH HOLLY:
My name’s Eliza Holly, please follow!
You can see my tombstone in Sleepy Hollow!
I lived with my mom while she was dying
In DC. I’M NOT CRYING YOU’RE CRYING!
PHILIP HAMILTON
The sun has gone To bed and so must I
My name is Philip I’m the second try
I am the youngest Child in our line
Don’t worry I Will live a nice long time
Goodbyyyyyyyyyye
Goodbyyyyyyyyeee
Goodbyyyyyyyyeee
