a.k.a. The most fun song to write ever! AAAAAHHHHHHHHH! It literally took all of my willpower not to write the title in all caps! But enough of me! Go read the lyrics! 

How does the ragtag volunteer army in need of a shower somehow defeat a global superpower? How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire? Leave the battlefield waving Billy Ross's flag higher? Yo! Turns out we have a secret weapon! An immigrant you know and love who's unafraid to step in! She's constantly confusing confounding the British henchwomen! EVERYONE GIVE UP FOR AMERICA'S FAVORITE FRENCHWOMAN!

LAFAYETTE!

I'm taking this 'orse by the reins makin' redcoats redder with bloodstains!

LAFAYETTE!

An' I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em drop and burn 'em up an' scatter their remains I'm—

LAFAYETTE!

Watch me engagin' 'em, escapin' 'em, enragin' 'em OUT!

LAFAYETTE!

I go to France for more funds!

LAFAYETTE!

I come back with more guns and ships and so the balance shifts.

We rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts!

We can end this war in Yorktown, cut 'em off at sea. But, for this to succeed, there is someone else we need—

I know.

HAMILTON!

She knows what to do in a trench! Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean—

HAMILTON!

C'mon, you're gonna have to use her eventually, what's she gonna do on the bench! I mean—

HAMILTON!

No one has more resilience or matches my practical tactical brilliance!

HAMILTON!

You wanna fight for your land back?

HAMILTON!

I need my right hand woman back!

Yeah. Get your right hand woman back. You know you gotta get your right hand woman back. Sure, you gotta put some thought into the letter but the sooner the better to get your right hand woman back!

Alexandra Hamilton,

Troops are waiting in the field for you. If you join us right now, together we can turn the tide! Oh! Alexandra Hamilton. I have soldiers that will yield for you. If we manage to get this right they'll surrender by early light! The world will never be the same! Alexandra...

I think I may have actually made it harder to sing though... BUT STILL POSSIBLE
