There were demonstrations on election night in several college towns in California. I pray we won't be getting to:
"With all the anger in the land, how long before the judgment day, till we cut the fat ones down to size, till the barricades arise?"
Audrey, the Phantom Phanatic, who nonetheless would rather be Jean Valjean, who knew how to make lemonade out of lemons.

To be quite frank, certain lines from "Everybody's Got The Right" seem less crazy than they did before.

"There are moments that the words don't reach
There is suffering too terrible to name
You hold your child as close as you can
And push away the unimaginable"

I 'gin to be aweary of the sun,
And wish th' estate o' th' world were now undone.—
Ring the alarum-bell!—Blow, wind! Come, wrack!
At least we’ll die with harness on our back.

There are a LOT of Hamilton lines that could probably apply, but the ones I've thought of most today are from cut songs:
- Pretty much the entirety of of the cut rap in The Adams Administration, but especially "an open letter to the fat, arrogant, anti-charismatic national embarrassment known as President [Donald Trump]"... yep 
- "Congratulations. You have invented a new kind of stupid. A damage you can never undo kind of stupid. An 'open all the cages in the zoo' kind of stupid. A 'clearly you didn't think this through' kind of stupid." Yeeeeep. *sigh*
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

King George in Hamilton stopped the show today when sang " What Comes Next" and the audience went crazy.
[KING GEORGE]
What comes next?
You've been freed
Do you know how hard it is to lead?
You're on your own
Awesome. Wow
Do you have a clue what happens now?
Oceans rise
Empires fall
It's much harder when it's all your call
All alone, across the sea
When your people say they hate you, don't
Come crawling back to me.

Germany was having trouble
What a sad, sad story
Needed a new leader to restore
Its former glory
Where, oh, where was he?
Where could that man be?
We looked around and then we found
The man for you and me!

Two shows to re-visit these days, both by the great Alan Jay Lerner: "Camelot" and "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue: A Musical About the Problems of Housekeeping." From the latter, listen to "Take Care of this House" and the Robber Baron minstrel show sequence.
