  • Working With Lemons presents “Wait For It” from Lin-Manuel Miranda’s HAMILTON! We loved watching the Broadway cast on Disney+! Have you seen it?
    Starring Conlon Bonner of the Bonner Family Singers
    We're a huge fan of Leslie Odom Jr. and what he gave to creating the character of Aaron Burr. Do you think there should be a Hamilton movie? Let us know!
    Huge thanks to “This Is The Place” for our location!

    Wait for It Lyrics:
    Theodosia writes me a letter ev'ry day.
    I'm keeping her bed warm while her husband is away.
    He's on the British side in Georgia.
    He's tryin' to keep the colonies in line.
    But he can keep all of Georgia.
    Theodosia, she's mine.
    Love doesn't discriminate
    Between the sinners
    And the saints
    It takes and it takes and it takes
    And we keep loving anyway.
    We laugh and we cry and we break
    And we make our mistakes.
    And if there's a reason I'm by her side
    When so many have tried
    Then I'm willing to wait for it.
    I'm willing to wait for it.
    My grandfather
    Was a fire and brimstone
    Preacher, Preacher, preacher, preacher
    But there are things that the homilies and hymns
    Won't teach ya. Teach ya, teach ya, teach ya
    My mother was a genius, Genius
    My father commanded respect. Respect, respect
    When they died they left no instructions.
    Just a legacy to protect.
    Death doesn't discriminate
    Between the sinners and the saints
    It takes and it takes and it takes
    And we keep living anyway.
    We rise and we fall and we break
    And we make our mistakes.
    And if there's a reason I'm still alive
    When everyone who loves me has died
    I'm willing to wait for it.
    I'm willing to wait for it.
    Wait for it Wait for it
    Wait for it Wait for it
    I am the one thing in life I can control
    Wait for it Wait for it
    Wait for it Wait for it
    I am inimitable I am an original
    Wait for it Wait for it
    Wait for it Wait for it
    I'm not falling behind or running late
    Wait for it Wait for it
    Wait for it Wait for it
    I'm not standing still
    I am lying in wait Wait
    Wait Wait
    Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb Climb Climb Climb
    He has something to prove he has nothing to lose
    Lose Lose Lose Lose
    Hamilton's pace is relentless
    He wastes no time Time Time Time
    What is it like in his shoes?
    Hamilton doesn't hesitate.
    He exhibits no restraint.
    He takes and he takes and he takes
    And he keeps winning anyway.
    He changes the game.
    He plays and he raises the stakes.
    And if there's a reason
    He seems to thrive when so few survive
    Then Goddamnit I'm willing to wait for it.
    I'm willing to wait for it...
    I'm willing to wait for it...
    Life doesn't discriminate
    Between the sinners and the saints
    It takes and it takes and it takes.
    And we keep living anyway
    We rise and we fall and we break
    We fall and we make our mistakes.
    And if there's a reason I'm still alive
    When so many have died
    Then I'm willin' to- then I'm willin' to-
    Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it...
    Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it...
    Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it...
    Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait...
