Hey... Hey...
What's this tonteria that I'm seeing on the street?
I never thought I'd see the day...
Since when are Latin people scared of heat?
When i was a little girl
growing up in the hills of Vega Alta
my favorite time of year was Chrstmas time!
Ask me why!
DANIELA
There wasn't an ounce of snow
But, oh, the coquito would flow
As we sang the aguinaldo
The carnaval would begin to grow!
Business is closed, and we're about to go...
Let's have a carnaval del barrio!

Ohh, me me me, Dani I have a question
I don't know what you're cantando

Just make it up as you go
We are improvisando:
Lai le lo lai lo le lo lai
You can sing anything
Carla, whatever pops into your head
Just so long as you sing
Ummm...
My mom is Dominican-Cuban
My dad is from Chile and P.R.,
which means:
I'm Chile-...Dominica-Rican!
But I always say I'm from Queens!

Why is everyone so happy?
We are sweating and we have no power
I've gotta get out of here soon
This block's getting worse by the hour!
You can't even go to the club with a friend
Without having somebody shove you!
DANIELA
Ay, por favor
Vanessa don't pretend that Usnavi's your friend
We all know that he love you!

Yo, grab a bottle, kiss it up to God,

Usnavi's leavin' us for the Dominican Republic?
And Benny went and stole the girl that I'm in love with?
She was my babysitter first!
Listen up, this is what ya'll want?
We close this bodega,
The neighborhood is gone!
They selling the dispatch,
They closing the salon
And they'll never turn the lights back on cuz-
WITH VANESSA
We are powerless,

But ya'll keep dancin' and singin' and celebratin'
But it's gettin' late and this place is disintegratin' and-
WITH VANESSA
We are powerless,
We are powerless!
USNAVI
Alright we are powerless, so light up a candle!
There's nothing going on here that we can't handle!
You don't understand, I'm not trying to be funny!
USNAVI
We're gonna give a third of the money to you, Sonny!
USNAVI
Yeah, yeah...
For real?
USNAVI
Maybe you're right, Sonny.
Call in the coroners
Maybe we're powerless, a corner full of foreigners.
Maybe this neighborhood's changing forever
Maybe tonight is our last night together, however!
How do you wanna face it?
Do you wanna waste it, when the end is so close you can taste it?
Y'all could cry with your head in the sand
I'm a fly this flag that I got in my hand!
