h, Mr. Secretary
Mr. Burr, sir
Did you hear the news about good old General Mercer?
No
You know Clermont Street?
Yeah
They renamed it after him
The Mercer legacy is secure
Sure
And all he had to do is die
Yeah, that's a lot less work
We ought to give it a try
Ha
Now, how you gonna get your debt plan through?
I guess I'm gonna finally have to listen to you
Really?
Talk less, smile more
Haha!
Do whatever it takes to get my plan on the Congress floor
Now, Madison and Jefferson are merciless
Well, hate the sin, love the sinner
Hamilton!
I'm sorry Burr, I've gotta go
But!
Decisions are happening over dinner
Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
Diametrically opposed,foes
They emerge with a compromise
Having opened doors that were previously closed, bros
The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
A system he can shape however he wants
The Virginians emerge with the nation's capital
And here's the pièce de résistance
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one really knows how the game is played
The art of the trade, how the sausage gets made
We just assume that it happens
But no one else is in the room where it happens
Thomas claims—
Alexander was on Washington's doorstep
One day in distress and disarray
Thomas claims—
Alexander said, "I've nowhere else to turn"
And basically begged me to join the fray
Thomas claims—
I approached Madison and said, "I know you hate him
But let's hear what he has to say"
Thomas claims—
Well,I  arranged the meeting
I arranged the menu, the venue, the seating
But!
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one really knows how the parties get to "yes"
The pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess
We just assume that it happens
But no one else is in the room where it happens
Meanwhile—
Madison is grappling with the fact
That not every issue can be settled by committee
Meanwhile—
Congress is fighting over where to put the capital
It isn't pretty
Then Jefferson approaches with a dinner and invite
And Madison responds with Virginian insight
Maybe we can solve one problem with another
And win a victory for the southerners, in other words
Oh-ho!
A quid pro quo
I suppose
Wouldn't you like to work a little closer to home?
Actually, I would
Well, I propose the Potomac
And you'll provide him his votes?
Well, we'll see how it goes
Let's go
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
My God! In God we trust
But we'll never really know what got discussed
Click-boom then it happened
And no one else was in the room where it happened
Alexander Hamilton!
What did they say to you to get you to sell New York City down the river?
Alexander Hamilton!
Did Washington know about the dinner?
Was there presidential pressure to deliver?
Alexander Hamilton!
Or did you know, even then, it doesn't matter where you put the U.S. capital
Cuz we'll have the banks, we're in the same spot
You got more than you gave
And I wanted what I got
When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
But you don't get a win unless you play in the game
You get love for it
You get hate for it
You get nothing if you
Wait for it, wait for it, wait
God help and forgive me
I wanna build something that's gonna outlive me
What do you want Burr?(What do you want Burr?)
What do you want Burr?(What do you want Burr?)
If you stand for nothing, Burr, what do you fall for?(What do you want Burr, what do you want?)
I— wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
I— wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
I
I wanna be in
The room where it happens
I
I wanna be in the room
Oh
Oh, oh
I wanna be
I wanna be in
I've got to be
I've got to be
In the room
In that big ol' room
The art of the compromise
Hold your nose and close your eyes
We want our leaders to save the day
But we don't get a say in what they trade away
We dream of a brand new star
But we dream in the dark, for the most part
Dark as a tomb where it happens
I've got to be in the room(The room where it happens)
I've got to be
The room where it happens
I've got to be
The room where it happens
Oh, I've got to be in the room where it happens(The room where it happens)
I've got to be, I've gotta be, I've gotta be—(The room where it happens)
in the room(I wanna be in the room where it happens)
Click-boom!

🌍 纯翻译歌词

啊,财政部长先生
伯尔先生,是您
你听说老默瑟上将的事了吗
还没有
你知道克莱蒙特大街吧
当然
现在叫默瑟大街
这下他可后世留名了
是啊
如今他要做的就是等死
没错,这倒省了不少事
我们得借鉴一试
哈
那么,你打算怎么让国会批准你的州债提案?
我想我最后还是需要听你的一句劝
真的吗?
“言多必失,笑而代之”
哈哈
不惜一切代价,我都会让国会批准我的州债计划
如今麦迪逊和杰弗逊冷酷无情
这个嘛,对事不对人
汉密尔顿!
抱歉,伯尔,我得先走了
不过!
结果就在餐桌上见分晓
两个弗吉尼亚人和一个移民共同进入房间
针尖对麦芒的敌对方
他们以妥协的姿态出场
将此前紧闭的大门开放
这位移民带着前所未有的财政权出现
要求一个他能随心所欲塑造的金融体系
弗吉尼亚人则要求拍板国家定都
那么重点来了:
再无他人置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
这决策的现场
再无他人置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
这决策的现场
再无他人真正知晓游戏规则如何掌握
博弈中的回合,细节中的龌龊
我们仅能凭空想象
但再无他人置身这决策的现场
托马斯声称——
亚历山大拜访华盛顿
那天他身心疲惫,面容憔悴
托马斯声称——
亚历山大说“我已无路可退”
恨不得跪下来求我加入这场议会
托马斯声称——
我去找麦迪逊并游说,“我知道你讨厌他”
“但不妨给他一个机会”
托马斯声称——
之之后我安排了这场议会
我安排了菜单,地点,和席位
但!
再无他人置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
这决策的现场
再无他人置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
这决策的现场
再无他人真正知晓他们如何点头认可
运筹帷幄之中又将如何进行取舍
我们仅能凭空想象
但再无他人置身这决策的现场
与此同时——
麦迪逊逐渐意识到
委员会的民主投票不是解决所有问题的万能药
与此同时——
国会还在为定都何处吵得不可开交
这可不够体面
随后杰弗逊带上了邀请函前来
麦迪逊的回应独具弗吉尼亚风采
也许我们可以利用两个问题互相解脱
为南方同乡赢取胜利成果,换句话说
啊—哈
互利共赢
我觉得行
你就不想办公室离家更近一些?
我还真挺想
那么我提议波托马克河沿岸
所以你会赞成他的提案?
这个嘛,我们边走边看
我们走起
再无他人置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
这决策的现场
再无他人置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
这决策的现场
上天!我们对天起誓从未动摇信仰
但无人可将交涉内容同我们共享
眨眼间裁决结束
再无他人置身这决策的现场
亚历山大 汉密尔顿!
他们给你灌了什么迷魂汤,竟让你出卖纽约将首都选址拱手相让
亚历山大 汉密尔顿!
华盛顿是否悉知其中真相?
总统是否有暗中进行施压插手决策去向?
亚历山大 汉密尔顿!
或者说你就算知道定都哪里,对你而言也无关紧要
因为我们会建立银行,这和定都同样重要
你得到的远多于你的给予
而我想要的已经得到
若你不入虎穴,则焉得虎子
若你置身事外,则毫无胜算
你可功留美名
你可过留罪名
但你碌碌无名,因为你
“耐心恭候,等待时机”
上天!予我帮助,恕我罪过
我想建立让我得以永垂不朽的杰作
你想要什么,伯尔?(你想要什么,伯尔?)
你想要什么,伯尔?(你想要什么,伯尔?)
若你迟迟不肯表态,伯尔,你究竟想怎样(你想要什么,伯尔,你想要什么?)
我——我想置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
我——我想置身这决策的现场
这决策的现场
我
我想要置身
这决策的现场
我
我想要置身现场
哦
哦,哦
我想要
我想要跻身
我一定要
我一定要
跻身现场
那个至关重要的现场
艺术在妥协中存在
屏息凝神,合眸忍耐
我们期盼领袖可以力挽狂澜
但代价如何,我们无权对其发言
我们梦想一个新的起点
但我们只能在黑暗中张开期望的双眼
如坟墓般密不透光的决策现场
我一定要跻身这现场(这决策的现场)
我一定要跻身
这决策的现场
我一定要跻身
这决策的现场
哦,我一定要跻身这决策的现场(这决策的现场)
我一定要,我一定要,我一定要——(这决策的现场)
跻身这现场!(我想要跻身这决策的现场)
嘭!

[02:54.693]这个嘛,我们边走边看
[02:55.948]我们走起
[02:56.701]再无他人置身这决策的现场
[02:58.960]这决策的现场
[03:00.215]这决策的现场
[03:02.262]再无他人置身这决策的现场
[03:04.521]这决策的现场
[03:05.777]这决策的现场
[03:07.287]上天!我们对天起誓从未动摇信仰
[03:09.797]但无人可将交涉内容同我们共享
[03:13.281]眨眼间裁决结束
[03:16.100]再无他人置身这决策的现场
[03:18.359]亚历山大 汉密尔顿!
[03:19.614]他们给你灌了什么迷魂汤,竟让你出卖纽约将首都选址拱手相让
[03:23.945]亚历山大 汉密尔顿!
[03:25.450]华盛顿是否悉知其中真相?
[03:26.957]总统是否有暗中进行施压插手决策去向?
[03:29.750]亚历山大 汉密尔顿!
[03:30.480]或者说你就算知道定都哪里,对你而言也无关紧要
[03:34.747]因为我们会建立银行,这和定都同样重要
[03:37.508]你得到的远多于你的给予
[03:38.763]而我想要的已经得到
[03:40.272]若你不入虎穴,则焉得虎子
[03:43.296]若你置身事外,则毫无胜算
[03:46.224]你可功留美名
[03:47.479]你可过留罪名
[03:48.734]但你碌碌无名,因为你
[03:50.240]“耐心恭候,等待时机”
[03:52.498]上天!予我帮助,恕我罪过
[03:54.253]我想建立让我得以永垂不朽的杰作
[03:57.014]你想要什么,伯尔?(你想要什么,伯尔?)
[03:59.021]你想要什么,伯尔?(你想要什么,伯尔?)
[04:00.530]若你迟迟不肯表态,伯尔,你究竟想怎样(你想要什么,伯尔,你想要什么?)
[04:03.040]我——我想置身这决策的现场
[04:06.802]这决策的现场
[04:09.414]我——我想置身这决策的现场
[04:12.927]这决策的现场
[04:16.190]我
[04:17.194]我想要置身
[04:18.950]这决策的现场
[04:20.707]我
[04:21.962]我想要置身现场
[04:23.719]哦
[04:25.062]哦,哦
[04:28.893]我想要
[04:29.646]我想要跻身
[04:31.654]我一定要
[04:32.407]我一定要
[04:34.666]跻身现场
[04:35.670]那个至关重要的现场
[04:37.929]艺术在妥协中存在
[04:39.435]屏息凝神,合眸忍耐
[04:42.699]我们期盼领袖可以力挽狂澜
[04:45.208]但代价如何,我们无权对其发言
[04:47.969]我们梦想一个新的起点
[04:50.981]但我们只能在黑暗中张开期望的双眼
[04:53.743]如坟墓般密不透光的决策现场
[04:57.649]我一定要跻身这现场(这决策的现场)
[04:59.406]我一定要跻身
[05:00.661]这决策的现场
[05:02.167]我一定要跻身
[05:03.422]这决策的现场
[05:04.676]哦,我一定要跻身这决策的现场(这决策的现场)
[05:07.688]我一定要,我一定要,我一定要——(这决策的现场)
[05:10.448]跻身这现场!(我想要跻身这决策的现场)
[05:14.464]嘭!

h, Mr. Secretary
Mr. Burr, sir
Did you hear the news about good old General Mercer?
No
You know Clermont Street?
Yeah
They renamed it after him
The Mercer legacy is secure
Sure
And all he had to do is die
Yeah, that's a lot less work
We ought to give it a try
Ha
Now, how you gonna get your debt plan through?
I guess I'm gonna finally have to listen to you
Really?
Talk less, smile more
Haha!
Do whatever it takes to get my plan on the Congress floor
Now, Madison and Jefferson are merciless
Well, hate the sin, love the sinner
Hamilton!
I'm sorry Burr, I've gotta go
But!
Decisions are happening over dinner
Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
Diametrically opposed,foes
They emerge with a compromise
Having opened doors that were previously closed, bros
The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
A system he can shape however he wants
The Virginians emerge with the nation's capital
And here's the pièce de résistance
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one really knows how the game is played
The art of the trade, how the sausage gets made
We just assume that it happens
But no one else is in the room where it happens
Thomas claims—
Alexander was on Washington's doorstep
One day in distress and disarray
Thomas claims—
Alexander said, "I've nowhere else to turn"
And basically begged me to join the fray
Thomas claims—
I approached Madison and said, "I know you hate him
But let's hear what he has to say"
Thomas claims—
Well,I  arranged the meeting
I arranged the menu, the venue, the seating
But!
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one really knows how the parties get to "yes"
The pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess
We just assume that it happens
But no one else is in the room where it happens
Meanwhile—
Madison is grappling with the fact
That not every issue can be settled by committee
Meanwhile—
Congress is fighting over where to put the capital
It isn't pretty
Then Jefferson approaches with a dinner and invite
And Madison responds with Virginian insight
Maybe we can solve one problem with another
And win a victory for the southerners, in other words
Oh-ho!
A quid pro quo
I suppose
Wouldn't you like to work a little closer to home?
Actually, I would
Well, I propose the Potomac
And you'll provide him his votes?
Well, we'll see how it goes
Let's go
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
No one else was in the room where it happened
The room where it happened
The room where it happened
My God! In God we trust
But we'll never really know what got discussed
Click-boom then it happened
And no one else was in the room where it happened
Alexander Hamilton!
What did they say to you to get you to sell New York City down the river?
Alexander Hamilton!
Did Washington know about the dinner?
Was there presidential pressure to deliver?
Alexander Hamilton!
Or did you know, even then, it doesn't matter where you put the U.S. capital
Cuz we'll have the banks, we're in the same spot
You got more than you gave
And I wanted what I got
When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
But you don't get a win unless you play in the game
You get love for it
You get hate for it
You get nothing if you
Wait for it, wait for it, wait
God help and forgive me
I wanna build something that's gonna outlive me
What do you want Burr?(What do you want Burr?)
What do you want Burr?(What do you want Burr?)
If you stand for nothing, Burr, what do you fall for?(What do you want Burr, what do you want?)
I— wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
I— wanna be in the room where it happens
The room where it happens
I
I wanna be in
The room where it happens
I
I wanna be in the room
Oh
Oh, oh
I wanna be
I wanna be in
I've got to be
I've got to be
In the room
In that big ol' room
The art of the compromise
Hold your nose and close your eyes
We want our leaders to save the day
But we don't get a say in what they trade away
We dream of a brand new star
But we dream in the dark, for the most part
Dark as a tomb where it happens
I've got to be in the room(The room where it happens)
I've got to be
The room where it happens
I've got to be
The room where it happens
Oh, I've got to be in the room where it happens(The room where it happens)
I've got to be, I've gotta be, I've gotta be—(The room where it happens)
in the room(I wanna be in the room where it happens)
Click-boom!
