During a break from all the fighting the boys take an opportunity to relax at a formal event as they attempt to impress some ladies. This is a very short song, but much like "Farmer Refuted" it is a short comedic song that acts as an (re)introduction to the Schuyler Sisters. Even though the audience met them, Alexander Hamilton has not. The lyrics are mostly between Burr and Hamilton calling and commenting the many lovely ladies witnessed at this event. It may be a short simple song, but after the intense battle during "Right Hand Man" it is easy to follow and laugh along with as many can relate to either being flirted with or flirting with someone pretty.
