Say no to this
[BURR:]
There's nothing like summer in the city
"Oh no." Alexander groaned and held his head in his hands when he saw you walk in. He remembered that you had gotten the part as Maria and wasn't looking forward to the others finding out about his affair. The others looked at him, wondering what was happening.
Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty
The boys looked up surprised. What had Hamilton done?
There's trouble in the air, you can smell it
And Alexander's by himself. I'll let him tell it
John looked at Alex with a puzzled look.
[HAMILTON:]
I hadn't slept in a week
"And you are continuing to overwork yourself, son. It's not healthy."
I was weak, I was awake
You never seen a bastard orphan
"Are you admitting it?" Jefferson asked with a smirk.
More in need of a break
"Then 'take a break'." Lafayette laughed.
Longing for Angelica
Missing my wife
"What!?"
That's when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life, she said:
Alexander sighed and the others raised their eyebrows.
[MARIA:]
I know you are a man of honor
I'm so sorry to bother you at home
"Wow, Y/N can sing really well."
But I don't know where to go, and I came here all alone...
[HAMILTON:]
She said:
[MARIA:]
My husband's doin' me wrong
Hamilton groaned at the set-up story.
Beatin' me, cheatin' me,
"No woman should go through that." Hercules muttered, which gave Hamilton an even more guilty look
mistreatin' me...
Suddenly he's up and gone
I don't have the means to go on
"So offer her a loan or something." John said supportingly.
[HAMILTON:]
So I offered her a loan,
"Hey!"
I offered to walk her home, she said
"That was very kind of you." Burr marked.
[MARIA:]
You're too kind, sir
"Ok, why do we think like Lin?"
[HAMILTON:]
I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away
She lived a block away, she said:
"So she lived close..." Jefferson muttered silently.
[MARIA:]
This one's mine, sir
[HAMILTON:]
Then I said, "well, I should head back home,"
"Yep, that's probably smart." Washington nodded.
She turned red, she led me to her bed
Let her legs spread and said:
"No, no, no , nooooo. What did you do?" Hamilton looked in his lap with tears in his eyes.
[MARIA:]
Stay?
[HAMILTON:]
Hey...
They could hear some of the audience laugh. Why was that? Probably because of te way lain said it.. they thought.
[MARIA:]
Hey...
[HAMILTON:]
That's when I began to pray:
"You never used to pray, Alex." John said, looking at his friend. He only nodded, he wasn't able to form words properly.
Lord, show me how to
Say no to this
I don't know how to
Say no to this
"You say NO. It's that easy." Jefferson said sniggering.
But my God, she looks so helpless
"Helpless? Come on, that's you betraying Eliza even more." Burr commented.
And her body's saying, "hell, yes"
[MARIA:]
Whoa...
[HAMILTON:]
Nooo, show me how to
[HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE:]
Say no to this
[HAMILTON:]
I don't know how to
[HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE:]
Say no to this
[HAMILTON:]
In my mind, I'm tryin' to go
"Then go." Washington groaned. He couldn't believe what was happening.
[ENSEMBLE:]
Go! Go! Go!
[HAMILTON:]
Then her mouth is on mine, and I don't say...
"NOOOOO!" They all screamed at the same time, expect for Jefferson who smiled a bit.
[ENSEMBLE:]
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
No! No!
Say no to this!
[HAMILTON:]
I wish I could say that was the last time
"You wish?" He didn't answer. His head hang low and he could feel hot warm streaks down his face.
I said that last time. It became a pastime
He took at shaky breath and clenched his fists.
A month into this endeavor I received a letter
"Oh no." Washington understood what had happened.
From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better, it said:
"Oh shit."
[JAMES:]
Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
"Is he blackmailing you?" He nodded, unable to form a response.
In the pockets of people like me: down on their luck
You see, that was my wife who you decided to
"Have sexual activity with." Hercules said. The others looked at him surprised at his choice of words.
[HAMILTON:]
Fuuuu...
"Or you can say that."
[JAMES:]
Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold
So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled
And hey, you can keep seein' my whore wife
"It's not nice to call your wife that." "Really Jefferson?" He nodded.
If the price is right: if not I'm telling your wife
"Shit."
[HAMILTON:]
I hid the letter and I raced to her place
Screamed "How could you?!" in her face
"Y/N is back." John said, trying to make Alexander smile a little. He didn't succeed.
She said:
[MARIA:]
No, sir!
[HAMILTON:]
Half dressed, apologetic
"Ok?"
A mess, she looked pathetic, she cried:
[MARIA:]
Please don't go, sir!
[HAMILTON:]
So was your whole story a setup?
"Oh, that makes so much sense."
[MARIA:]
I don't know about any letter!
"Don't lie!"
[HAMILTON:]
Stop crying
Goddamnit, get up!
"At least you are trying to fix things, son." Hamilton looked down in shame.
[MARIA:]
I didn't know any better
[HAMILTON:]
I am ruined...
[MARIA (HAMILTON):]
Please don't leave me with him helpless
"So is he hunting her, or not?" Lafayette asked a little bit confused.
(I am helpless — how could I do this?)
"That is a very good question, mon amie."
Just give him what he wants and you can have me
(I don't want you)
"Why are you lying?" Jefferson asked with a smirk.
Whatever you want (I don't want you)
If you pay (I don't)
You can stay
"How is that even possible?" Burr said, his mouth hanging open at the note. The others had similar expressions. None of them understood how that was humanly possible.
[MARIA (HAMILTON) {ENSMEBLE}:]
(Lord, show me how to say no to this) {Say no to this}
Tonight (I don't know how to say no to this) {Say no to this}
"Please tell me you didn't?" Hercules said quietly. Alexander looked down in his lap again. Hercules sighed.
(Cuz the situation's helpless)
Helpless
"Again, with the 'helpless' thing." Jefferson said a bit smugly.
(And her body's screaming, "Hell, yes")
Whoa!
(No, show me how to say no to this) {Say no to this}
How can you say no to this? (How can I say no to this?) {Say no to this}
(There is nowhere I can go)
"Yes it is. You can go home!" John said taking alexanders hand and shaking his head with tears.
{Go! Go! Go!}
(When her body's on mine I do not say...) {No!}
"No!"
(Yes) Yes {Say no to this! No!}
(Yes) Yes {Say no to this! No!}
"I don't know how it feel about this. Cause this is a play about Alexander and Eliza, but at the same time that is Lin and Y/N, who are a courting in real life." Hercules said thoughtfully.
(Yes) Ye-ye-yes {Say no to this! No!}
(Yes) Yes {Say no to this!}
"Oh god no." George muttered.
(Say no to this...)
(I don't say no to this) Don't say no to this
(There is nowhere I can go)
{Go! Go! Go!}
[JAMES:]
So?
[HAMILTON:]
Nobody needs to know
"What the hell did we just watch?" Washington cursed. The others looked at him surprised at his outburst while Alexander made himself as small as possible. "Son, how could you?" Alexander could feel the tears streaming down his face. He shook his head and could feel. Two hands take his. He looked up and saw John with a sad smile on his face, and Washington squeezing his hand in a comforting way. He squeezed their hands back as the next song started.
