Lin-Manuel Miranda - Scene 7: Inside the Bodega, the Street lyrics
MUSIC 6A: WHAT UP? (USNAVI is checking lottery numbers. BENNY is there fanning himself.) [BENNY] Does my tie look straight? [USNAVI] Benny, you look the same as every day. Quit trying to impress Nina. [SONNY] (Sniffs.) Whoo, you need to impress some Old Spice under those arms. [BENNY] Shut up. My boss put me on dispatch, I need to look professional. [SONNY] "My boss, my boss." You're paving the road to someone else's dreams. Man, strike out on your own. [BENNY] I'm learning on someone else's dime. The day I open Benny's Car Service, I'll know my trade inside and out. [USNAVI] Either one of you Rockefellers wanna take this business of my hands? [SONNY] [BENNY] Heck no. Naw, I'm cool. (GRAFFITTI PETE enters displaying a hand-airbrushed t-shirts.) [GRAFFITI PETE] What up? Buy my t-shirt. [USNAVI] That's your sale pitch? Get the hell out of here. [GRAFFITI PETE] Today's special, two for twenty. [USNAVI] How about I give you nothing and you scrub your initials off my awning? [SONNY] (Hands PETE a slushee.) Sonny's Secret Recipe. [USNAVI] That's a dollar twenty five. [GRAFFITI PETE] Let's trade. I got some roman candles, bottle rockets. Third of July, party starts tonight! [USNAVI] Contraband. Vandalism. You got three seconds before I call the cops. 9. 1. (GRAFFITI PETE exits.) [SONNY] Usnavi, double check this. [USNAVI] Take Five Lotto. Hold up, we sold a winner yesterday? [BENNY] Somebody won? [SONNY] Yo, I want a cut of your cut! [USNAVI] I don't get a cut. Yup, these numbers match. [BENNY] MUSIC 7: 96,000 [USNAVI] Ninety-six thousand! [SONNY/BENNY] Damn! [USNAVI] Ninety-six thousand! (GRAFFITI PETE pokes his head back in, still with the slushee.) [SONNY] Dollars? Holler! [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!

My money's makin' money, I'm goin' from po' to mo' dough! Keep the bling, I want the bra** 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!
