The issue on the table
Secretary Hamilton's plan to assume
State debt and establish a national bank
Secretary Jefferson you have the floor sir

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
We fought for these ideals we shouldn't settle for less
These are wise words enterprising men quote 'em
Don't act surprised you guys 'cause I wrote 'em
Ow, but Hamilton forgets
His plan would have the government assume state's debts
Now place your bets as to who that benefits
The very seat of government where Hamilton sits
Not true
Ooh, if the shoe fits wear it
If New York's in debt why should Virginia bear it
Uh, our debts are paid I'm afraid
Don't tax the south 'cause we got it made in the shade
In Virginia we plant seeds in the ground we create
You just wanna move our money around
This financial plan is an outrageous demand
And it's too many damn pages for any man to understand
Stand with me in the land of the free
And pray to God we never see Hamilton's candidacy
Look, when Britain taxed our tea, we got frisky
Imagine what gon happen when you try to tax our whiskey

Thank you secretary Jefferson
Secretary Hamilton, your response

Thomas, that was a real nice declaration
Welcome to the present we're running a real nation
Would you like to join us or stay mellow
Doing whatever the hell it is you do in Monticello
If we assume the debts the Union gets a new line of credit
A financial diuretic how do you not get it
If we're aggressive and competitive the Union gets a boost
You'd rather give it a sedative
A civics lesson from a slaver
