satisfied lyrics
All right, all right, that's what I'm talking about!Now, everyone give it upFor the maid of honor, Angelica Schuyler!
A toast to the groom!(To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)To the bride (to the bride!)(To the bride, to the bride)From your sister(Angelica, Angelica, Angelica)
Who is always by your side(By your side, by your side)To your union (to the union, to the revolution!)And the hope that you provide(You provide, you provide)May you always (always)
Be satisfied (rewind)Rewind, rewind, rewindRewind, rewind, rewindHelpless, skies... skiesHelpless, drowning... drowningRewind (Rewind)
I remember that night, I just might (rewind)I remember that night, I just might (rewind)I remember that nightI remember that-
I remember that night, I just mightRegret that night for the rest of my daysI remember those soldier boysTripping over themselves to win our praiseI remember that dreamlike candlelight
Like a dream that you can't quite placeBut Alexander, I'll never forget the first time I saw your faceI have never been the sameIntelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
And when you said "Hi, " I forgot my dang nameSet my heart aflame, ev'ry part aflameThis is not a gameYou strike me as a woman who has never been satisfiedI'm sure I don't know what you meanYou forget yourself
You're like me, I'm never satisfiedIs that right?I have never been satisfiedMy name is Angelica SchuylerAlexander Hamilton
Where's your family from?Unimportant, there's a million things I haven't doneJust you wait, just you waitSo so so
So this is what it feels like to match witsWith someone at your level! what the hell is the catch?It's the feeling of freedom, of seeing the lightIt's Ben Franklin with a key and a kiteYou see it right?
The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutesEverything we said in total agreementIt's a dream and it's a bit of a danceA bit of a posture, it's a bit of a stance
He's a bit of a flirt, but I'mma give it a chanceI asked about his fam'ly, did you see his answer?His hands started fidgeting, he looked askanceHe's penniless, he's flying by the seat of his pants
Handsome, boy does he know itPeach fuzz and he can't even grow itI wanna take him far away from this placeThen I turn and see my sister's face and she is
HelplessAnd I know she isHelplessAnd her eyes are justHelplessAnd I realize
Where are you taking me?I'm about to change your lifeThen by all means, lead the way(Number one!)
I'm a girl in a world in whichMy only job is to marry richMy father has no sons so I'm the one who has to social climb for oneSo I'm the oldest and the wittiest and the gossip in New York City is insidious
And Alexander is pennilessHa, that doesn't mean I want him any lessElizabeth Schuyler, it's a pleasure to meet youSchuyler? My sister
He's after me because I'm a Schuyler sisterThat elevates his statusI'd have to be naive to set that aside
Maybe that is why I introduce him to ElizaNow that's his brideNice going Angelica, he was right, you will never be satisfiedThank you for all your serviceIf it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth itI'll leave you to it
I know my sister like I know my own mindYou will never find anyone as trusting or as kindIf I tell her that I love him she'd be silently resignedHe'd be mineShe would say "I'm fine", she'd be lying
But when I fantasize at night, it's Alexander's eyesAs I romanticize what might have been if I hadn't sizedHim up so quicklyAt least my dear Eliza's his wifeAt least I keep his eyes in my life
To the groom!(To the groom, to the groom, to the groom)To the bride!(To the bride, to the bride, to the bride)
From your sister(Angelica, Angelica)Who is always by your side(By your side, by your side)
To your union! (To the union, to the revolution)And the hope that you provide(You provide, you provide)May you always (always)
Be satisfied (satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)And I know (be satisfied, be satisfied, be satisfied)She'll be happy as his bride (satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)And I know (be satisfied, satisfied, satisfied, satisfied)
He will never be satisfiedI will never be satisfied
