I think we can all agree that Michelle Obama's quote about Hamilton: “It was simply, as I tell everybody, the best piece of art in any form that I have ever seen in my life" is absolutely true. I absolutely love this musical, even though I've only listened to the album (because I'm way too poor to fly myself to NYC to see it). I've made a list of what I think are some of the best lyrics from Hamilton.

1. Aaron Burr, Sir

"He looked at me like I was stupid, I'm not stupid."

Honestly, same, though.

2. Farmer Refuted

"Don't modulate the key then not debate with me."

Eheheh. Music theory humor.

3. You'll Be Back

"I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love."

King George III is so relatable.

4. Right Hand Man

"Burr?"

"Sir?"

"Close the door on your way out."

get FUCKED, Burr.

5. Helpless

"If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it."

Well, damn, son. If that ain't smooth as fuck.

6. The Story of Tonight Reprise

"Oh, shit..."

My entire life's monologue is just this.

7. Wait For It

"I am the one thing in life I can control. I am inimitable, I am an original"

Ugh, yes. Yes yes yes. I absolutely love this song.

8. Yorktown

"Immigrants: we get the job done."

Roll credits.

9. What Comes Next?

"Awesome. Wow."

Once again, King George III is all of us.

10. Cabinet Battle #1

"'We plant seeds in the South, we create.'
Yeah, keep ranting, we know who’s really doing the planting."

get FUCKED, Jefferson.

11. Blow Us All Away

"Everything is legal in New Jersey...."

New Jersey jokes will never not be funny.

12. The Election of 1800

"I have never agreed with Jefferson once

We have fought on like seventy-five different fronts

But when all is said and all is done—

Jefferson has beliefs. Burr has none."

get FUCKED, Burr pt 2.

13. Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story

"The Lord, in his kindness,

He gives me what you always wanted

He gives me more time"

*starts sobbing*

Originally I had a ton of lyrics, but since it amounted to basically the entire musical, I had to cut some out. Let records show, though, that this musical is incredibly beautiful and kills me every time I listen to it.

Hope everyone has a happy holidays, and if you haven't listened to Hamilton yet, what are you waiting for?
