Usnavi learns that his bodega sold a winning lottery ticket—someone in the barrio has won $96,000! This sets the neighborhood to dreaming about what they would do with the money.
Lin-Manuel Miranda often refers to all musicals having an “I want” song, in which the characters tell the audience their...
[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand
[SONNY/BENNY]
Damn!
[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand
[SONNY]
Dollas? Holla!
[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand
[BENNY, spoken]
Yo, somebody won!
[USNAVI]
Ninety-six thousand!
[BENNY]
Yo, if I won the lotto tomorrow, well, I know
I wouldn't bother goin' on no spendin' spree
I pick a business school and pay the entrance fee
Then maybe if you're lucky, you'll stay friends with me
I'll be a businessman, richer than Nina's daddy
Donald Trump and I on the links, and he's my caddy
My money's makin' money, I'm goin' from po' to mo' dough
Keep the bling, I want the brass ring, like Frodo
[USNAVI]
Oh no, here goes Mr. Braggadocio
Next thing you know, you're lying like Pinocchio
[BENNY]
Yo, if you're scared of the bull, stay out the rodeo
[GRAFFITI PETE]
Yo, I got more hoes than a phone book in Tokyo
[USNAVI]
Ooh, you better stop rappin', you not ready
It's gonna get hot and heavy
And you already sweaty
[GRAFFITI PETE]
Yo-yo-yo! Yo!
[USNAVI]
Yo! I'm sorry, is that an answer?
Shut up, go home and pull ya damn pants up!
As for you, Mr. Frodo of the Shire
Ninety-six Gs ain't enough to retire
[BENNY]
C'mon, I'll have enough to knock your ass off its axis
[USNAVI]
You'll have a knapsack full of jack after taxes
[SONNY]
Ninety-six thousand!
[ABUELA CLAUDIA, spoken]
¡Ay, alabanza!
[SONNY]
Ninety-six thousand!
[DANIELA/CARLA, spoken]
¡No me diga!
[SONNY]
Ninety-six thousand!
[VANESSA, spoken]
I never win shit
[SONNY]
Ninety-six thousand!
[BENNY]
For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow
Down the highway of life with no regrets
And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck
For real, though, I'll take a break from the wheel and we'll throw
The biggest block party, everybody here
It's a weekend when we can breathe, take it easy
[NEIGHBORS]
Yo, Ma, it's me, check my tickets
[CARLA]
Check one, two, three
What would you do with ninety-six Gs?
[DANIELA]
Who me?
[CARLA]
I mean if it's just between you and me
[DANIELA]
Esa pregunta es tricky
[CARLA]
I know
[DANIELA]
With ninety-six Gs
I'd start my life with a brand new lease
Atlantic City with a Malibu Breeze
[CARLA]
And a brand new weave!
[DANIELA]
Or maybe just bleach...
[VANESSA]
Y'all are freaks
[USNAVI, spoken]
Yo, I'm just sayin'...
(sung)
It's silly when we get into these crazy hypotheticals
You really want some bread? Then go ahead create a set of goals
And cross 'em off the list as you pursue ‘em
And with those ninety-six, I know precisely what I'm doin'
[VANESSA]
What you doin'?
[USNAVI]
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?
It takes most of that cash just to save my ass from financial ruin
Sonny can keep the coffee brewin'
I'll spend a few on you
‘Cause the only room with a view is a room with you in it
And I could give Abuela Claudia the rest of it
Just fly me down to Puerto Plata, I'll make the best of it
You really love this business?
[SONNY]
No
[USNAVI]
Tough, Merry Christmas
You're now the youngest tycoon in Washington Hiznits!
[SONNY]
Yo, with ninety-six thousand, I'd finally fix housin'
Give the barrio computers with wireless web browsin'
Your kids are livin' without a good edjumication
Change the station, teach 'em about gentrification
The rent is escalatin'
[GRAFFITI PETE]
What?!
[SONNY]
The rich are penetratin'
[GRAFFITI PETE]
What?!
[SONNY]
We pay our corporations when we should be demonstratin'
[GRAFFITI PETE]
What?!
[SONNY]
What about immigration?
[GRAFFITI PETE]
What?!
[SONNY]
Politicians be hatin'
[GRAFFITI PETE]
What?!
[SONNY]
Racism in this nation's gone from latent to blatant
[COMMUNITY]
Ooh!
[SONNY]
I'll cash my ticket and picket, invest in protest
Never lose my focus 'til the city takes notice
And you know this man! I'll never sleep
Because the ghetto has a million promises for me to keep
[VANESSA, spoken]
You are so cute!
[SONNY, spoken]
I was just thinkin' off the top of my head
[USNAVI, spoken]
Ninety-six K, go
[VANESSA]
If I win the lottery, you'll never see me again
[USNAVI]
Damn, we only jokin', stay broke then
[VANESSA]
I'll be downtown
Get a nice studio, I'll get out of the barrio
[VANESSA]
If I win the lottery
You'll wonder where I've been
[BENNY]
For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow
Down the highway of life with no regrets
And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck
[VANESSA]
I'll be downtown
See you around
If I win the lottery
You won't see a lot of me
I'll be downtown
See you around
[WOMEN]
Why-oh!
[VANESSA]
Around
[WOMEN]
Why-oh!
[BENNY]
For real though, I'll take a break from the wheel and we'll throw
The biggest block party, everybody here
A weekend when we can breathe, take it easy

Poppin' lockin' up the block
Drop it like it's hot!
[VANESSA]
I'll be downtown
[USNAVI/BENNY/SONNY]
We could pay off the debts we owe
[VANESSA/CARLA/DANIELA]
We could tell everyone we know
