[Company:]
Seventeen. Se- se- seventeen...
Se- se- seventeen...

[Burr:]
1789}

"That's when I came home.." Thomas said

{How does the bastard orphan
Immigrant decorated war vet
Unite the colonies through more debt?
Fight the other founding fathers 'til he has to forfeit?
Have it all, lose it all
You ready for more yet?
Treasury Secretary. Washington's the President
Ev'ry American experiment sets a precedent
Not so fast. Someone came along to resist him
Pissed him off until we had a two-party system}

Thomas grinned widely

{You haven't met him yet, you haven't had the chance
'Cause he's been kickin' ass as the ambassador to France
But someone's gotta keep the American promise
You simply must meet Thomas. Thomas!

[Company:]
Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
Thomas Jefferson's coming home Lord he's
Been off in Paris for so long!
Aaa-ooo!
Aaa-ooo!}

"This Musical suddenly got a thousand times better" Thomas grinned ignore the scoff Alex gave him

[Jefferson:]
France is following us to revolution
There is no more status quo
But the sun comes up
And the world still spins

[Ensemble:]
Aaa-ooo!

[Jefferson:]
I helped Lafayette draft a declaration
Then I said, "I gotta go
I gotta be in Monticello."
Now the work at home begins...}

Thomas gave Lafayette a high five

[Ensemble:]
Aaa-ooo!

[Jefferson:]
So what'd I miss?
What'd I miss?
Virginia, my home sweet home, I wanna give you a kiss}

"Weird"

{I've been in Paris meeting lots of different ladies...
I guess I basic'lly missed the late eighties...
I traveled the wide, wide world and came back to this...}

"You sound disappointed Thomas" Washington mused

[Ensemble:]
Aaa-ooo!

[Jefferson:]
There's a letter on my desk from the President
Haven't even put my bag down yet
Sally be a lamb, darlin', won'tcha open it?}

"Bet that's not the only thing you ever asked Sally to open for you" Hercules said, Thomas flushed and sunk into his seat

{It says the President's assembling a cabinet
And that I am to be the Secretary of State, great!
And that I'm already Senate-approved...
I just got home and now I'm headed up to New York

[Ensemble:]
Headin' to New York!
Headin' to New York!

[Jefferson (Ensemble):]
Lookin' at the rolling fields
I can't believe that we are free (Believe that we are free)
Ready to face whatever's awaiting
Me in N.Y.C. (Me in N.Y.C.)
But who's waitin' for me when I step in the place?
My friend James Madison, red in the face}

"He saw me and instinctively went red" Thomas grinned cheekily

{He grabs my arm and I respond,
"What's goin' on?" (Aaa-ooo!)

[Madison:]
Thomas, we are engaged in a battle for our nation's very soul
Can you get us out of the mess we're in?}

"Wow." Alex pokerfaced

[Ensemble:]
Aaa-ooo!

[Madison:]
Hamilton's new financial plan is nothing less
Than government control
I've been fighting for the South alone
Where have you been?}

Alex groaned "my plan was fine!"

[Jefferson:]
Uh... France}

"10/10 friendship goals"

[Ensemble:]
Aaa-ooo!

[Madison:]
We have to win

[Jefferson (Ensemble):]
What'd I miss?
(Wha? Wha? What'd I miss?)
What'd I miss?
(I've come home to this?)
Headfirst into a political abyss!
(Headfirst, into the abyss!)
I have my first cabinet meeting today
(Chik-a-pow!)
I guess I better think of something to say
I'm already on my way (On my way)
To get to the bottom of this...
(What did I miss? Ahhh ah!)

[Washington:]
Mr. Jefferson, welcome home

[Hamilton:]
Mr. Jefferson? Alexander Hamilton}

"It was at that time I new I had to crush you like a bug" Thomas said

[Washington and Ensemble:]
Mr. Jefferson, welcome home

[Company:]
Mr. Jefferson, welcome home
Sir, you've been off in Paris for so long!

[Jefferson:]
So what did I miss?}

"The total death and destruction of our cabinet" James sighed earning a slap on the shoulder from Y/n, Phillip giggled, Yes giggled, at everyone's glares at each other
