There’s nothing rich folks love more
Than going downtown and slumming it with the poor
They pull up in their carriages and gawk at the students in the common
Just to watch ‘em talk
Take Philip Schuyler, the man is loaded
Uh oh, but little does he know that
His daughters, Peggy, Angelica, Eliza
Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at
[COMPANY] Work, work
[ANGELICA] Angelica!
[COMPANY] Work, work
[ELIZA] Eliza!
[PEGGY] And Peggy!
[COMPANY] Work, work
The Schuyler sisters
[ANGELICA] Angelica!
[PEGGY] Peggy!
[ELIZA] Eliza!
[COMPANY] Work!
[PEGGY] Daddy said to be home by sundown
[ANGELICA] Daddy doesn’t need to know
[PEGGY] Daddy said not to go sundown
[ELIZA] Like I said, you’re free to go
But—look around, look around
The revolution’s happening in New York
[ELIZA & PEGGY] New York
[COMPANY] Angelica
[SISTERS & COMPANY] Work!
[PEGGY] It’s bad enough Daddy wants to go to war
[ELIZA] People shouting in the square
[PEGGY] It’s bad enough there’ll be violence on our shore
[ANGELICA] New ideas in the air
[ANGELICA & MALE ENSEMBLE] Look around, look around—
[ELIZA] Angelica, remind me what we’re looking for
[ALL MEN] She’s looking for me!
[ANGELICA]
Eliza, I’m looking for a mind at work
I’m looking for a mind at work
Woa-oah
[SISTERS] Woa-oah
[SISTERS & COMPANY] Work!
[BURR]
Ooh, there’s nothing like summer in the city
Someone in a rush next to someone lookin’ pretty
Excuse me, miss, I know it’s not funny
But your perfume smells like your daddy’s got money
Why you slummin’ in the city in your fancy heels?
You searchin’ for an urchin who can give you ideals?
[ANGELICA] Burr, you disgust me
[BURR]
Ahh, so you’ve discussed me
I’m a trust fund, baby, you can trust me

I’ve been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine
So men say that I’m intense or I’m insane
You want a revolution? I want a revelation
So listen to my declaration:
[ALL SISTERS]
“We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal“
[ANGELICA]
And when I meet Thomas Jefferson
I’mma compel him to include women in the sequel
[WOMEN] Work!
[ALL SISTERS]
Look around, look around at how
Lucky we are to be alive right now
History is happening in Manhattan and we
Just happen to be in the greatest city in the world
[SISTERS & COMPANY] In the greatest city in the world!
