Lyrics:
There’s nothing rich folks love more Than going downtown and slummin’ it with the poor They pull up in their carriages and gawk at the students in the common Just to watch them talk take Philip Schuyler the man is loaded Uh oh, but little does he know that His daughters, Peggy, Angelica, Eliza Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at work, work Angelica Work, work Eliza and Peggy (work, work) the Schuyler sisters Angelica, Peggy, Eliza (work) Daddy said to be home by sundown Daddy doesn’t need to know Daddy said not to go downtown Like I said, you’re free to go But look around, look around, the revolution’s happening in New York New York Angelica work It’s bad enough daddy wants to go to war People shouting in the square It’s bad enough there’ll be violence on our shore New ideas in the air Look around, look around Angelica, remind me what we’re looking for She’s lookin' for me Eliza, I’m lookin’ for a mind at work, work, work I’m lookin’ for a mind at work, work, work I’m lookin’ for a mind at work, work, work Whoa, whoa work Wooh there’s nothin’ like summer in the city Someone in a rush next to someone lookin’ pretty Excuse me, miss, I know it’s not funny But your perfume smells like your daddy’s got money Why you slummin’ in the city in your fancy heels You searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals? Burr, you disgust me Ah, so you’ve discussed me I’m a trust fund, baby, you can trust me I’ve been reading common sense by Thomas Paine So men say that I’m intense or I’m insane You want a revolution? I want a revelation So listen to my declaration We hold these truths to be self-evident That all men are created equal And when I meet Thomas Jefferson (unh) I’m ‘a compel him to include women in the sequel (work) Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world In the greatest city in the world 'Cause I’ve been reading common sense by Thomas Paine So men say that I’m intense or I’m insane You want a revolution I want a revelation So listen to my declaration We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal Look around, look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now History is happening in Manhattan and we just happen to be in the greatest city in the world In the greatest city in the world Work, work Angelica (Work, work) Eliza and Peggy (work, work) the Schuyler sisters (Work, work) we’re looking for a mind at work, work Hey (work, work) hey (work, work) whoa (work, work) In the greatest, in the greatest city in the world In the greatest city in the world
