Meet the latest graduate of King's College
I prob'ly shouldn't brag but dag I amaze and astonish

The scholars say I got the same virtuosity and brains as my pops.
The ladies say my brains not where the resemblance stops.

I’m only nineteen but my mind is older
Gotta be my own man, like my father, but bolder

I shoulder his legacy with pride.
I used to hear him say that some day I would
Blow us all away

Ladies, I'm looking for a Mr. George Eacker,
Made a speech last week, our Fourth of July speaker.

He disparaged my father's legacy in front of a crowd.
I can't have that I'm makin' my father proud.

I saw him just up Broadway a couple of blocks.
He was goin' to see a play.

Well I'll go visit his box.
God, You're a fox!

And y'all look pretty good in your frocks.
How 'bout when I get back, we all strip down to our socks?

Okay!

Blow us all away!

Instrumental stylized 10 Duel Commandments

George!
Shh! I'm tryin' to watch the show!
You should've watched you mouth before you talked about my father though.
I didn't say anything that wasn't true. Your father's a scoundrel and so it seems are you.

It's like that?
Yeah, I don't fool around.
I'm not your little schoolboy friends.

See you on the dueling ground! That is unless you wanna step outside and go now.
I know where to find you piss off I'm watching the show now.

Pops, if you had only heard the sh** he said about you
I doubt you would have let it slide and I was not about to–
Slow down.

I came to ask you for advice.
This is my very first duel.
They don't exactly cover this subject in boarding school.

Did your friend attempt to negotiate a peace?
He refused to apologize, we had to let the peace talks cease.
Where is this happening?
Across the river in Jersey

Everything is legal in New Jersey.

Alright. So this is what you’re gonna do.
Stand there like a man until Eacker is in front of you
When the time comes, fire your weapon in the air
This will put an end to the whole affair

But if he decides to shoot then I'm a gonner.
No, He'll follow suit if he's truly a man of honor.
To take someone's life, that is something you can't shake.
Phillip, your mother can't take another heartbreak.
