#Ham4Ham: Right Hand Man
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
Alright y'all show me some love, okay
[Phillipa Soo]
Give it up for Renee Elise Goldsberry!
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
And Pippa Soo!
*Phillipa Soo begins beatboxing*
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
Yeah girl!
Can I be real a second?
For just a millisecond?
Let down my guard and tell you people how I feel a second?
Now I’m the model of a modern major general
The venerated Virginian veteran. You men are all
Lining up, to put me up on a pedestal
Writin’ letters to relatives
Embellishin’ my elegance and eloquence
But the elephant is in the room
The truth is in ya face when ya hear the British cannons go…
[Renee Elise Goldsberry, Phillipa Soo, & Lin Manuel Miranda]
Boom!
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
Any hope of success is fleeting
How can I keep leading when the people I’m
Leading keep retreating?
We put a stop to the bleeding as the British take Brooklyn
Knight takes rook, but look
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
We are outgunned
[Lin Manuel Miranda]
What?
Outmanned
[Lin Manuel Miranda]
What?
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
Outnumbered
Outplanned
[Lin Manuel Miranda]
Buck Buck Buck Buck Buck!
[Renee Elise Goldsberry]
We gotta make an all out stand
And then I’m gonna need my right-hand man
