dyniellebasco for Angelica Schuyler (Understudy)/Female Ensemble #1
Angelica Schuyler, the oldest of the Schuyler sisters, is a young woman living in America during the Revolutionary War. She is very outspoken for a woman at the time, expressing her ideals without fear. During a ball held in the winter of 1780, she meets, and gets romantic feelings for, a young revolutionary named Alexander Hamilton.
I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine
Some men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
You want a revolution? I want a revelation
So listen to my declaration
"We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal"
And when I meet Thomas Jefferson
I'ma compel him to include women in the sequel!
Work!My dearest Alexander, you must get through to Jefferson
Sit down with him and compromise
Don't stop 'til you agree
Your favourite older sister Angelica reminds you
There's someone in your corner all the way across the seaIn a letter I received from you two weeks ago
I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase
It changed the meaning, did you intend this?
One stroke and you've consumed my waking days
It says"My dearest, Angelica"
With a comma after dearest
You've written
"My dearest, Angelica"(sing it like the final chorus in Satisfied)
To the groom
To the bride
From your sister
Who is always by your side
To your union
And the hope that you provide
May you always
Be satisfiedAnd I know
She'll be happy as his bride
And I know
He will never be satisfied
I will never be satisfied
