[00:01.673]h, Mr. Secretary
[00:03.430]Mr. Burr, sir
[00:04.685]Did you hear the news about good old General Mercer?
[00:07.938]No
[00:08.690]You know Clermont Street?
[00:09.443]Yeah
[00:10.447]They renamed it after him
[00:11.703]The Mercer legacy is secure
[00:13.459]Sure
[00:14.714]And all he had to do is die
[00:15.970]Yeah, that's a lot less work
[00:17.225]We ought to give it a try
[00:18.479]Ha
[00:19.232]Now, how you gonna get your debt plan through?
[00:20.988]I guess I'm gonna finally have to listen to you
[00:24.000]Really?
[00:24.752]Talk less, smile more
[00:29.520]Haha!
[00:30.524]Do whatever it takes to get my plan on the Congress floor
[00:35.039]Now, Madison and Jefferson are merciless
[00:38.552]Well, hate the sin, love the sinner
[00:41.312]Hamilton!
[00:42.316]I'm sorry Burr, I've gotta go
[00:43.571]But!
[00:44.827]Decisions are happening over dinner
[00:49.501]Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
[00:52.513]Diametrically opposed,foes
[00:54.521]They emerge with a compromise
[00:57.029]Having opened doors that were previously closed, bros
[01:00.292]The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
[01:03.304]A system he can shape however he wants
[01:05.813]The Virginians emerge with the nation's capital
[01:09.076]And here's the pièce de résistance
[01:11.335]No one else was in the room where it happened
[01:13.963]The room where it happened
[01:15.219]The room where it happened
[01:16.975]No one else was in the room where it happened
[01:19.235]The room where it happened
[01:20.739]The room where it happened
[01:22.495]No one really knows how the game is played
[01:24.754]The art of the trade, how the sausage gets made
[01:28.016]We just assume that it happens
[01:31.174]But no one else is in the room where it happens
[01:36.316]Thomas claims—
[01:37.320]Alexander was on Washington's doorstep
[01:40.080]One day in distress and disarray
[01:41.837]Thomas claims—
[01:42.841]Alexander said, "I've nowhere else to turn"
[01:44.854]And basically begged me to join the fray
[01:47.614]Thomas claims—
[01:48.619]I approached Madison and said, "I know you hate him
[01:51.127]But let's hear what he has to say"
[01:52.984]Thomas claims—
[01:53.987]Well,I arranged the meeting
[01:55.495]I arranged the menu, the venue, the seating
[01:58.258]But!
[01:59.010]No one else was in the room where it happened
[02:00.767]The room where it happened
[02:02.271]The room where it happened
[02:03.776]No one else was in the room where it happened
[02:06.293]The room where it happened
[02:07.548]The room where it happened
[02:09.305]No one really knows how the parties get to "yes"
[02:11.815]The pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess
[02:14.577]We just assume that it happens
[02:18.037]But no one else is in the room where it happens
[02:22.720]Meanwhile—
[02:24.225]Madison is grappling with the fact
[02:25.731]That not every issue can be settled by committee
[02:28.492]Meanwhile—
[02:29.752]Congress is fighting over where to put the capital
[02:33.360]It isn't pretty
[02:34.114]Then Jefferson approaches with a dinner and invite
[02:36.875]And Madison responds with Virginian insight
[02:39.636]Maybe we can solve one problem with another
[02:42.397]And win a victory for the southerners, in other words
[02:45.157]Oh-ho!
[02:45.909]A quid pro quo
[02:47.164]I suppose
[02:48.167]Wouldn't you like to work a little closer to home?
[02:50.427]Actually, I would
[02:51.681]Well, I propose the Potomac
[02:53.188]And you'll provide him his votes?
[02:54.693]Well, we'll see how it goes
[02:55.948]Let's go
[02:56.701]No one else was in the room where it happened
[02:58.960]The room where it happened
[03:00.215]The room where it happened
[03:02.262]No one else was in the room where it happened
[03:04.521]The room where it happened
[03:05.777]The room where it happened
[03:07.287]My God! In God we trust
[03:09.797]But we'll never really know what got discussed
[03:13.281]Click-boom then it happened
[03:16.100]And no one else was in the room where it happened
[03:18.359]Alexander Hamilton!
[03:19.614]What did they say to you to get you to sell New York City down the river?
[03:23.945]Alexander Hamilton!
[03:25.450]Did Washington know about the dinner?
[03:26.957]Was there presidential pressure to deliver?
[03:29.750]Alexander Hamilton!
[03:30.480]Or did you know, even then, it doesn't matter where you put the U.S. capital
[03:34.747]Cuz we'll have the banks, we're in the same spot
[03:37.508]You got more than you gave
[03:38.763]And I wanted what I got
[03:40.272]When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
[03:43.296]But you don't get a win unless you play in the game
[03:46.224]You get love for it
[03:47.479]You get hate for it
[03:48.734]You get nothing if you
[03:50.240]Wait for it, wait for it, wait
[03:52.498]God help and forgive me
[03:54.253]I wanna build something that's gonna outlive me
[03:57.014]What do you want Burr?(What do you want Burr?)
[03:59.021]What do you want Burr?(What do you want Burr?)
[04:00.530]If you stand for nothing, Burr, what do you fall for?(What do you want Burr, what do you want?)
[04:03.040]I— wanna be in the room where it happens
[04:06.802]The room where it happens
[04:09.414]I— wanna be in the room where it happens
[04:12.927]The room where it happens
[04:16.190]I
[04:17.194]I wanna be in
[04:18.950]The room where it happens
[04:20.707]I
[04:21.962]I wanna be in the room
[04:23.719]Oh
[04:25.062]Oh, oh
[04:28.893]I wanna be
[04:29.646]I wanna be in
[04:31.654]I've got to be
[04:32.407]I've got to be
[04:34.666]In the room
[04:35.670]In that big ol' room
[04:37.929]The art of the compromise
[04:39.435]Hold your nose and close your eyes
[04:42.699]We want our leaders to save the day
[04:45.208]But we don't get a say in what they trade away
[04:47.969]We dream of a brand new star
[04:50.981]But we dream in the dark, for the most part
[04:53.743]Dark as a tomb where it happens
[04:57.649]I've got to be in the room(The room where it happens)
[04:59.406]I've got to be
[05:00.661]The room where it happens
[05:02.167]I've got to be
[05:03.422]The room where it happens
[05:04.676]Oh, I've got to be in the room where it happens(The room where it happens)
[05:07.688]I've got to be, I've gotta be, I've gotta be—(The room where it happens)
[05:10.448]in the room(I wanna be in the room where it happens)
[05:14.464]Click-boom!
