In The Heights - Lin-Manuel Miranda
Lights up on Washington heights
At the break of the day
I wake up and got this little
Punk I gotta chase away
Pop the gate at the crack of dawn
Sing while I wipe down the awning
Hey ya'll good morning

Ice cold piragua parcha China cherry strawberry
And just for today I got mamey
Yo piragü ero como estas
Como siempre señ or usnavi

I am usnavi and you prob'ly
Never heard my name
Reports of my fame are
Greatly exaggerated
Exacerbated by the fact
That my syntax
Is highly complicated 'cuz I
Emigrated from the single
Greatest little place in
The caribbean
Dominican republic
I love it
Jesus I'm jealous of it
And beyond that
Ever since my folks passed on
I haven't gone back

Godd**n I gotta get on that

Fo
The milk has gone bad
Hold up just a second
Why is everything in this
Fridge warm and tepid
I better step it up and
Fight the heat
'Cuz I'm not making any
Profit if the coffee isn't
Light and sweet
Ooo oo
Abuela my fridge broke I got café but no con leche
Try my mother's old recipe one can of condensed milk
Nice
Ay paciencia fe

That was abuela
She's not really my abuela
But she practically raised me
This corner is her escuela
Now you're probably thinkin'
I'm up sh*t's creek
I never been north of 96'th street

Well you must take the a train

Even farther than Harlem
To northern Manhattan and maintain
Get off at 181'st
And take the escalator
I hope you're writing this down
I'm gonna test ya later
I'm getting tested
Times are tough on this bodega
Two months ago somebody
Bought ortega's
Our neighbors started packin' up
And pickin' up and ever since
The rents went up
It's gotten mad expensive
But we live with just enough
In the heights
I flip the lights
And start my day

There are fights

And endless debts
And bill to pay

In the heights
I can't survive without café
I serve café
'Cuz tonight seems like
A million years away
En Washington
Next up to bat the rosarios
They run the cab company
They struggle in the barrio
See their daughter nina's
Off at college
Tuition is mad steep
So they can't sleep
Everything they get is mad cheap
Good morning usnavi

Pan caliente café con leche
Put twenty dollars
On today's lottery
One ticket that's it
Hey a man's gotta dream
Don't mind him
He's all excited
'Cuz nina flew in at
3 a.m last night
Don't look at me
This one's been
Cooking all week
Usnavi come over for dinner
There's plenty to eat

So then Yesenia walks in the room

Aha
She smells sex and cheap perfume
Uh oh
It smells like one of those
Trees that you hang from
Your rear view
Ah no
It's true she screams
Who's in there with you Julio
Grabs a bat and kicks in the door
He's in bed with Jose
From the liquor store

No me diga

Daniela and Carla from the salon

Thanks usnavi

Sonny you're late
Chillax you know you love me

Me and my cousin
Runnin' just another
Dime a dozen
Mom and pop
Stop and shop
And oh my god
It's gotten too darn hot
Like my man cole porter said
People come through
For a few cold waters
And a lottery ticket
Just a part of the routine
Everybody's got a job
Everybody's got a dream
They gossip as I sip my coffee
And smirk the first stop
As people hop to work
Bust it
I'm like
One dollar two dollars
One fifty one sixty nine
I got it
You want a box of
Condoms what kind
That's two quarters
Two quarter waters
The new york times
You need a bag for that
The tax is added
Once you get some practice at it
You do rapid mathematics
Automatically sellin' maxipads
And fuzzy dice for taxicabs
And practically
Everybody's stressed yes
But they press through the mess
Bounce checks
And wonder what's next
In the heights
I buy my coffee and I go

Set my sights
On only what I need to know

In the heights
Money is tight
But even so

When the lights go down
I blast my radio
You ain't got no skills
Benny
Lemme get a
Milky way
Yeah lemme also get a
Daily news
And a
Post
And most important my
Boss' second coffee
One cream
Five sugars
I'm the number one earnery
What
The fastest learner
What
My boss can't keep
On the d**n back burner
Yes he can
I'm makin' moves
I'm makin' deals
But guess what

What
You still ain't got no skills
Hardee har
Vanessa show up yet
Shut up
Hey little homie
Don't get so upset
Tell vanessa how you feel
Buy the girl a meal
On the real
Or you ain't got no skills
Nooo

No no nooo
No no nooo no no no
Nooo no no no
No no no no no no no no no
No no no no
Mr johnson I got
The security deposit
It's locked in a box
In the bottom of my closet
It's not reflected in
My bank statement
But I've been savin'
To make a down payment
And pay rent
No no I won't let you down

Yo here's your chance
Ask her out right now

I'll see you later
We can look at the lease
Do somethin'
Make your move
Don't freeze
Hey

You owe me a bottle
Of cold champagne

Are you moving
Just a little credit check
And I'm on that downtown train
Well your coffee's on the house
Okay
Usnavi ask her out
No way

I'll see you later so

Ooh smooth operator
Aw d**n there she go
Yo bro take five
Take a walk outside
You look exhausted lost
Don't let life slide
The whole hood is struggling
Times are tight
And you're stuck to this
Corner light a streetlight

Yeah I'm a streetlight
Choking on the heat
The world spins around
While I'm frozen to my seat
The people that I know
All keep on rolling down the street
But every day is different
So I'm switchin' up the beat
'Cuz my parents came with nothing
They got a little more
And sure we're poor
But yo at least we got the store
And it's all about the legacy
They left with me
It's destiny
And one day I'll be
On a beach with sonny
Writing checks to me
In the heights I hang
My flag up on display
We came to work and to live
And we got a lot in common
It reminds me that
I came from miles away
D R P R
We are not stoppin'
In the heights
Every day paciencia fe oooh
Usnavi oooh
Until the day we go from oooh
Poverty to stock options in the heights
And today's all we got I've got today
So we cannot stop
This is our block
In the heights I hang
My flag up on display
Lo le lo le lo lai lai lo le
It reminds me that
I came form miles away
My family came from miles away
In the heights
It gets more expensive
Every day every day

And tonight
Is so far away
But as for mañana mi pana
Ya gotta just keep watchin'
You'll see in the heights the late nights
You'll taste beans and rice
The syrups in the heights and shaved ice
I ain't gonna say it twice in the heights
So turn up the stage lights
We're takin' a flight to a couple of days
In the life of what it's like all
En Washington heights
