Lyrics of Your Obedient Servant by Leslie Odom, Jr.,Lin-Manuel Miranda,Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton
verse
How does Hamilton
An arrogant immigrant, orphan
Bastard, whoreson
Somehow endorse Thomas Jefferson, his enemy
A man he's despised since the beginning
Just to keep me from winning?
verse
I wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens, the room where it happens
You've kept me from the room where it happens
For the last time
verse
Dear Alexander
I am slow to anger
But I toe the line
As I reckon with the effects of your life on mine
I look back on where I failed
And in every place I checked
The only common thread has been your disrespect
verse
Now you call me amoral
A dangerous disgrace
If you've got something to say
Name a time and place, face to face
I have the honor to be your obedient servant
A dot Burr
verse
Mr. Vice President
I am not the reason no one trusts you
No one knows what you believe
I will not equivocate on my opinion
I have always worn it on my sleeve
Even if I said what you think I said
You would need to cite a more specific grievance
Here's an itemized list of thirty years of disagreements
verse
Sweet Jesus
verse
Hey, I have not been shy
I am just a guy in the public eye
Trynna do my best for our republic, I don't wanna fight
But I won't apologize for doing what's right
I have the honor to be your obedient servant
A dot Ham
verse
Careful how you proceed, good man
Intemperate indeed, good man
Answer for the accusations I lay at your feet
Or prepare to bleed, good man
verse
Burr, your grievance is legitimate
I stand by what I said, every bit of it
You stand only for yourself, it's what you do
I can't apologize because it's true
verse
Then stand, Alexander
Weehawken, dawn
Guns, drawn
verse
You're on
outro
I have the honor to be your obedient servant
A dot Ham
A dot Burr
Writer(s): Lin-manuel Miranda
