ELIZA AND WOMEN
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 to 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 went “Boom!”
Tryin’ to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom,
everybody’s dancin’ and the band’s top volume.

ELIZA AND WOMEN
Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine.

ELIZA
Grab my sister, and
whisper, “Yo, this
one’s mine.”

My sister made her way across the room to you
and I got nervous, thinking “What’s she gonna do?”
She grabbed you by the arm, I’m thinkin’ “I’m through”
Then you look back at me and suddenly I’m
Helpless!

Oh, look at those eyes,

Oh!
Yeah, I’m
helpless, I know

I’m so into you,
I am so into you.

I know I’m down for the count
And I’m drownin’ in ‘em.

ALL WOMEN
Oooh

Oooh

Oooh

Oooh

Helpless!

Look into your eyes,
And the sky’s the limit
I’m
Helpless!
Down for the count,
And I’m drownin’ in ‘em.

I’m helpless!

Look into your eyes,
And the sky’s the limit I’m helpless!

Down for 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 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.

ELIZA AND WOMEN
One week later

ELIZA
I’m writin’ a letter nightly.
Now my life gets better, every letter that you write me.
Laughin’ at my sister, cuz she wants to form a harem.

ANGELICA
I’m just sayin’, if you really loved me, you would share him.

ELIZA
Ha!
Two weeks later,
In the living room stressin’
My father’s 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.
My father makes his way across the room
to you.
I panic for a second, thinking,
“we’re through”
But then he shakes your hand and says,
“Be true”
And you turn back to me, smiling, and I’m
Helpless!

Helpless!
Hoo!

That boy is mine,
that boy is mine!

Helpless! Helpless!
Down for the count,
And I’m drownin’ in em

ALL WOMEN
stressin’

blessin’.

Oooh

Oooh

Oooh

Oooh

Helpless!
Look into your eyes,
and the sky’s the
limit I’m
Helpless!
Down for the count,
and I’m drownin’ in
‘em I’m
helpless!

Look into your eyes,
And the sky’s the
limit I’m
helpless!
Down for the count,
And I’m drownin’ in em
HAMILTON
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, a 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, swear to God,
you’ll never feel so…

HAMILTON
Eliza…

I’ve never felt so—

My life is gon’ be fine cuz Eliza’s in it.

ELIZA
I do I do I do I do!

I do I do I do I do!

Hey, yeah, yeah!

I’m down for the count,
I’m—

I look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit
I’m

…drownin’ in ‘em.
ALL WOMEN
Helpless!

Helpless!

Helpless!

Down for the count
and I’m drownin’ in ‘em

Helpless!

Helpless!

Helpless!

Down for the count,
and I’m drownin’ in ‘em.

ALL WOMEN
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.
