Quote
John Adams:
Dear God! For one solid year, they have been sitting here! A whole year, doing nothing!
[singing]
John Adams:
I do believe you've laid a curse on North America / A curse that we here now rehearse in Philadelphia! / A second flood, a simple famine, plagues of locusts everywhere, or a cataclysmic earthquake I'd accept with some despair / But no, you sent us Congress. / Good God, sir, was that fair? / You see, we piddle, twiddle, and resolve, not one damn thing do we solve / Piddle, twiddle, and resolve / Nothing's ever solved / In foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy Philadelphia!
