letra de time to step down - the churchill theater

Loading...

[theodosia]
i’ve read your letters
and i’ve received your cautionary words
what i’ve heard has not been sound

[burr]
you’ve been keeping up to date with your studies?

[theodosia]
i’ve read my greek and latin
and rehe-rs-d my triplets and my fifths
kept in good health, as you’ve found

[burr]
then why don’t we take a look at what you’ve got?

[theodosia]
dad! can we stay on topic?

[burr]
okay, okay!

[theodosia]
dad! can we be myopic?

[burr]
what’s there to say?
[theodosia]
i’m not one to doubt your word
but have you stopped
to think about the consequences?
think of the mess you’ve stirred
remove your pride, and let’s try coming to our senses

[burr]
where are you going with this?

[theodosia]
maybe it’s time to step down
retreat to the west in a quiet little lakeside town
maybe it’s time to step down
admit you screwed up and leave before you’re prison-bound
maybe it’s time to step down
it may have been justified
but, you’re the reason why a founding father just died!
so how does that sound?
maybe it’s time to step down

[burr]
i sent you letters
and i dispelled the rumors and the lies
so you’d know that all is well
[theodosia]
you can try, but you know i’ll always worry!

[burr]
i’ve never felt so lively
i feel spry to move on with my life
i’ve got all the time to dwell

[theodosia]
then why are you in such a hurry?
dad! can you please sit still?

[burr]
have you a paper and a quill?

[theodosia]
you’re not listening!
i will never question you
but, i don’t think it’s the end of your plotting days

[theodosia & burr]
see this from my point of view!

[theodosia]
how would you react
if i k!lled a guy and asked for praise?
[burr]
if it was justified…

[theodosia]
dad!
maybe it’s time to step down
you still have your friends, and you still have your great renown
maybe it’s time to step down
and settle for leisure when you can’t have a crown
maybe it’s time to step down
(step down!)
you always said to wait
(step down!)
so a knife or gun wouldn’t seal your fate
(ahh-ahh-ahh)

[theodosia & ensemble]
how’s that going now?
maybe it’s time to step down

[burr]
theodosia, i have to do this!
this is my breaking point

[theodosia]
please!
i never say die, it’s much too final
no one’s ever really gone
in a life that’s ever-changing, i’ve always had you
and i’m not ready to hear that you’ve moved on

[ensemble]
maybe it’s time to step down
retreat to the west in a quiet little lakeside town
maybe it’s time to step down
admit you screwed up and leave before you’re prison-bound
maybe it’s time to step-

[theodosia & ensemble]
was alexander’s life worth to take
if you’re just gonna make all the same of his mistakes?
lay down your crown
maybe it’s time to step
down
