It must be nice
It must be nice
To have Washington
on your side
it must be nice
it must be nice
To have Washington
on your side
ev'ry action has its equal
opposite reaction
Thanks to Hamilton
our cabinet's fractured
into factions, try not to
crack under the stress
we're breaking down
like fractions
We smack each other
in the press and we
don't print retractions
I get no satisfaction
witnessing his
fits of passion
The way he primps
and preens and dresses
like the pits of fashion
Our poorest citizens
our farmers, live ration
to ration as Wall Street
robs 'em blind in search
of chips to cash in
This p***k is asking
for someone to bring him
to task somebody gimme
some dirt on this vacuous
mass so we can
at last unmask him
I'll pull the trigger on him
someone load the gun
and cock it, while we
were all watching
he got Washington
in his pocket
It must be nice
It must be nice
To have Washington
on your side
it must be nice
it must be nice
To have Washington
on your side
look back at the
Bill of Rights
which I wrote
the ink hasn't dried
It must be nice
It must be nice
To have Washington
on your side
so he's doubled the size
of the government
Wasn't the trouble with
much of our previous
government size
look in his eyes
see how he lies, follow
the scent of his enterprise
Centralizing national credit
and making American
credit competitive
if we don't stop it
we aid and abet it
I have to resign!
Somebody has to stand up
for the South
well somebody has to
stand up to his mouth!
If there's a fire
you’re trying to douse
you can't put it out
from inside the house!
I'm in the cabinet I am
complicit in watching him
grabbin' at power and
kissing it, if Washington
isn't gon' listen to
disciplined dissidents
This is the difference
this kid is OUT!
Oh this immigrant isn't
somebody we chose!
Oh this immigrant's
keeping us all on our toes!
Oh let's show these
Federalists what
they're up against!
Oh Southern
motherf**king
Democratic-Republicans!
Oh now follow the money
and see where it goes!
Oh because every second
the treasury grows!
Oh if we follow the money
and see where it leads
get in the weeds
look for the seeds
of Hamilton's misdeeds!
It must be nice
It must be nice
Follow the money
and see where it goes
it must be nice
it must be nice
The Emperor
has no clothes
we won't be invisible
we won't be denied!
Still
it must be nice
it must be nice
to have Washington
on your side
