Tekst piosenki:
BURR:
1780 - a winter's ball and
The Schuyler Sisters are the envy of all, yo!
If you could marry a sister
You're rich son!
HAMILTON:
Is it a question of if, Burr, or which one?
BURRxHAMILTON:
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
ELIZA with CHORUS:
Ohh, I do, I do, I do, I do!
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
Hey! Ohh, I do, I do, I do, I do!
(hey, hey, hey, hey)
Boy you got me Helpless!
Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit.
I'm Helpless!
Down for the count, and I'm drownin' in 'em.
ELIZA:
I have never been the type of try and grab the spotlight
We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
Laughin' at my sister as she's dazzling the room
Then you walked in and my heart wnet BOOM
Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
Everybody's dancin' and the band's top volume
Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
Grab my sister, and whisper "Yo, this one's mine"
(Uuu)
My sister made her way across the room to you
(Uuu)
And I got nervous, thinking "what's she gonna do?"
(Uuu)
She grabbed you by the arm, I'm thinkin' I'm through
(Uuu)
Then you look back at me and suddenly I'm
/ELIZA with (CHORUS)/:
/Helpless!/
Oh, look at those eyes! Ohh
(look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit)
/I'm Helpless!/
I know I'm
/Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em/
(I' m Helpless)
I'm so into you!
(Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit)
I am so into you!
/I'm Helpless!/
I know I'm
/Downfor the count and I'm drownin' in 'em/
HAMILTON:
Where are you taking me?
ANGELICA:
I'm about to change your life.
HAMILTON:
Then by all means, lead the way
ELIZA:
Elizabeth Schuyler. It's a pleasure to meet you!
HAMILTON:
Schuyler?
ANGELICA:
My sister.
ELIZA:
Thank you for all of your service!
HAMILTON:
If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it
ANGELICA:
I'll leave you to it.
/EILZA with (CHORUS)/:
/One week later/
I'm writin' a letter nightly
Now my life gets better, every letter than you write me
Laughin' at my sister, 'cause she wants to form a harem
ANGELICA:
I' m just sayin', if you really loved me, you would share him
/ELIZA with (CHORUS)/
HA!
/Two weeks later/
In the living room /stressin'/
My father stone-faced
While you're asking for his /blessin'/
I'm dying inside, as You wine and dine
And I'm tryin' not to cry
'Cause there's nothing that your mind can't do
(Uuu)
My father makes his way across the room to you
(Uuu)
I panic for a second, thinking We' re through
(Uuu)
But then he shakes your hand and says "Be true"
(Uuu)
And you turn back to me, smiling, and I'm
(Helpless! Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit)
Helpless!
(Helpless! I'm down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em.
I' m Helpless!)
That boy is mine!
That boy is mine!
(Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit!
I'm Helpless!)
Helpless!
(Down for tha count and I'm drownin' in 'em)
HAMILTON:
Yo, Eliza, I don' t have a dollar to my name
An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
All I have's my honor, tolerance for pain
A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me
No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
We'll get a little place in Harlem and we'll figure it out
I've been livin' without a family since I was a child
My father left, my mother died, I grew up buckwild
But
I'll never forget my mother's face, that was real
And long as I'm alive, Eliza, girl I swear you'll never feel so
[ELIZA]x{HAMILTON}x(CHORUS):
(Helpless!)
[I do, I do, I do, I do]
{Eliza}
(Helpless!)
[I do, I do, I do, I do]
{I've never felt so}
(Helpless)
[Yeah!]
(I'm Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em)
[I'm for the count]
(Helpless)
{My life is gon' be fine 'cause Eliza's in it}
(Helpless)
[I look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit.
I'm]
(Helpless! Down for the count and i'm drownin' in 'em)
CHORUS:
In New York, you can be a new man
In New York, you can be a new man
In New York, you can be a new man
ELIZA:
Helpless!
