Hamilton - The Drarry Musical

Say No To This

(By Lin-Manuel Miranda, master of intrigue)

[POTTER]

There's nothing like summer in the city

Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty

There's trouble in the air, you can smell it

And Draco's by himself. I'll let him tell it

[MALFOY]

I hadn't slept in a week

I was weak, I was awake

You've never seen a Slytherin orphan

More in need of a break

Longing for Harry

Missing my wife

That's when Blaise Zabini

walked back into my life,

he said:

[BLAISE]

I know it's been awhile Draco

I'm so sorry to bother you at home

But I don't know where to go,

and my wife has thrown me out...

[MALFOY]

He said:

[BLAISE]

My wife's doin' me wrong

Cursin' me, cheatin' me, mistreatin' me...

Suddenly she's up and threw me out

I don't have the means to go on

[MALFOY]

So I offered him a loan,

I offered him a room, and he said

[BLAISE]

You're too kind, sir

[MALFOY]

I showed him to the shower and had a meal

And walked him to his room, he said:

[BLAISE]

I guess this one's mine,

[MALFOY]

Then I said, "Well, I should head back to my bed,"

He turned, he led me to his bed

Let his legs spread and said:

[BLAISE]

Stay?

[MALFOY]

Hey...

[BLAISE] 

Hey...

[MALFOY]

That's when I began to pray:

Merlin, show me how to

Say no to this

I don't know how to

Say no to this

But Salazar, he looks so delicious

And his body's saying, "hell, yes"

[BLAISE]

Whoa...

[MALFOY]

Nooo, show me how to

Say no to this

I don't know how to

[MALFOY/ENSEMBLE]

Say no to this

[MALFOY]

In my mind, 

I'm tryin' to go

[ENSEMBLE]

Go! Go! Go!

[MALFOY]

Then his mouth is on mine, 

and I don't say...

[ENSEMBLE]

No! No!

Say no to this!

No! No!

Say no to this!

No! No!

Say no to this!

No! No!

Say no to this!

[MALFOY]

I wish I could say that was the last time

I said that last time. It became a pastime

A month into this endeavor I received a letter

From a Mrs. Pansy Zabini, even better, it said:

[PANSY]

Dear Draco, I hope this letter finds you in good health

And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth

In the pockets of people like me: taxed all to hell

You see, that was my husband who you decided to

[MALFOY]

Fuuuu-

[PANSY]

Uh-oh! You made the wrong person a cuckquean

So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled

And hey, you can keep seein' my whore husband

If the price is right: if not I'm telling your wife

[MALFOY]

I hid the letter and I raced to his room

Screamed "How could you?!" in his face

He said:

[BLAISE]

No, Draco!

[MALFOY]

Half dressed, apologetic. 

A mess, he looked pathetic, 

he cried:

[BLAISE]

Please don't go, Draco!

[MALFOY]

So was this whole thing a setup?

[BLAISE]

I don't know about any letter!

[MALFOY]

Stop crying Goddamnit, get up!

[BLAISE]

I didn't know any better

[MALFOY]

I am ruined...

[BLAISE]

Please don't leave me! 

I'm helpless

[MALFOY]

I am helpless-how could I do this?

[BLAISE]

Just give her what she wants 

and you can have me

[MALFOY]

I don't want you

[BLAISE]

Whatever you want,

[MALFOY]

I don't want you

[BLAISE]

If you pay I can stay

[MALFOY]

Merlin, show me how to

Say no to this

I don't know how to

Say no to this

Cuz the situation's helpless

[BLAISE]

Helpless

[MALFOY]

And his body's screaming, "Hell, yes"

No, show me how to

Say no to this

How can I

Say no to this?

There is nowhere I can go

[ENSEMBLE]

Go! Go! Go!

[MALFOY]

When his body's under mine I do not say...

[ENSEMBLE]

No!

[MALFOY]

Yes

[ENSEMBLE]

Say no to this! No!

[MALFOY]

Yes

[ENSEMBLE]

Say no to this! No!

[MALFOY]

Yes

[ENSEMBLE]

Say no to this! No!

[MALFOY]

Yes

[ENSEMBLE]

Say no to this!

[BLAISE] 

Yes

[MALFOY]

Say no to this?

I don't say no to this

There is nowhere I can go

[ENSEMBLE]

Go! Go! Go!

[PANSY]

So?

[MALFOY]

Nobody needs to know
