Lin-Manuel Miranda
Button!
[JOHN ADAMS]
Barmaid, one ale if it's not too much bother
Pay attention! Did I mention I'm a Founding Father?
Don't try to front me, I won't play that, madam
I'm a founder of this country and my name's John Adams

[BUTTON GWINNETT]
I knew it was you, my boy Johnny Ace
Has it really been since Philly since I've seen your face?

[ADAMS]
Thank you very much, always nice to meet a fan

[GWINNETT]
Hold on a second, Adams, you know who I am
It's me Button Gwinnett, I don't need a citation
Cause we met tête-à-tête when we signed the Declaration
Big-wig style, how could you forget?
I'm your brother founding father, Big B Gwinnett!

[ADAMS]
Sorry, didn't hear, can you repeat that name?
Was it Bilbo Gimlet, what's your claim to fame?
I don't remember any hobbits on the signature roster
You say you're a Founder but you look like a Loster
[GWINNETT]
What?! What!
You can call me Gwinnett, you can call me Button
All the shorties call me over when they see me struttin'
I'm a patriotic player, I don't need to cajole
I got the lady-folks unbuttoning their button hole
Yeah, ask Abigail, she knows

[ADAMS]
I'm John frickin' Adams, come on, show respect
I ain't never heard of no buster named Button Gwinnett!
I'm the O.G.V.P. and I know every signer
From Hancock in Boston to Lynch in Carolina

[GWINNETT]
It's a mystery why you're pissed at me
But Button Gwinnett will make history
I'm a glutton for attention so don't you forget
Tell him my name:

[AUDIENCE]

[MIRANDA]
Yeah, I'm Button Gwinnett
Don't you ever forget
And when we tête-à-tête
I'm Button, I'm frontin'
I don't use my name
I'll just keep free-stylin'
'til we're don' with it!
