letra de lin-manuel miranda’s “ten duel commandments” - j. mummert
[men]
one, two, three, four
[full company]
five, six, seven, eight, nine…
[burr/hamilton/laurens/lee]
it’s the ten duel commandments
[full company]
it’s the ten duel commandments
number one!
[laurens]
the challenge: demand satisfaction
if they apologize, no need for further action
[company]
number two!
[laurens]
if they don’t, grab a friend, that’s your second
[hamilton]
your lieutenant when there’s reckoning to be reckoned
[company]
number three!
[lee]
have your seconds meet face to face
[burr]
negotiate a peace…
[hamilton]
or negotiate a time and place
[burr]
this is commonplace, ‘specially ‘tween recruits
[company]
most disputes die, and no one shoots
number four!
[laurens]
if they don’t reach a peace, that’s alright
time to get some pistols and a doctor on site
[hamilton]
you pay him in advance, you treat him with civility
[burr]
you have him turn around so he can have deniability
[company]
five!
[lee]
duel before the sun is in the sky
[company]
pick a place to die where it’s high and dry
number six!
[hamilton]
leave a note for your next of kin
tell ‘em where you been. pray that h-ll or heaven lets you in
[company]
seven!
[lee]
confess your sins. ready for the moment of adrenaline when you finally face your opponent
[company]
number eight!
[laurens/lee/hamilton/burr]
your last chance to negotiate
send in your seconds, see if they can set the record straight…
[burr]
alexander
[hamilton]
aaron burr, sir
[burr]
can we agree that duels are dumb and immature?
[hamilton]
sure
but your man has to answer for his words, burr
[burr]
with his life? we both know that’s absurd, sir
[hamilton]
hang on, how many men died because lee was inexperienced and ruinous?
[burr]
okay, so we’re doin’ this
[company]
number nine!
[hamilton]
look ‘em in the eye, aim no higher
summon all the courage you require
then count
[men]
one two three four
[full company]
five six seven eight nine
[hamilton/burr]
number
[company]
ten paces!
[hamilton/burr]
fire!
