Soundtracks - One Of A Kind lyrics - Lin-Manuel Miranda lyrics

[Andrés] Ayy, ladies and gentlemen The show is right this way, right this way Ayy, we have prepared for you a dazzling display Right this way So gather 'round, my friends, and here we go Presenting the one and only Vivo! [Vivo] Is this thing on? Gather 'round, gather 'round, let's go! Okay, attendance is low, but this is just a hiccup Once we begin our show, business is gonna pick up We're two blocks from la casa, it's not a new scene This is our spot in the plaza, check out the routine Ladies and gentlemen, I am Vivo the kinkajou What's a kinkajou? Baby, I think you're ready To learn a thing or two Watch me swing as I sing at you Every single thing I can think of To make you scream, "woo!" [Andrés] Ayy Lo le lo lai Lo le lo lai, lo le lo lei Lai le lo lei [Vivo] - That's Andrés, he sings [Andrés & Vivo] Ayy Lo le lo lai Lo le lo lai, lo le lo lei Lai le lo lei [Andrés] You and I, we are one of a kind [Andrés & Vivo] Keeping time, every time [Vivo] Oye! We are a part of a time-honored tradition Of timing and precision Your finest two musicians are top-notch As we hopscotch the competition The clock is tocking and ticking I'm rocking this clave rhythm Now watch As people drop their dollars and pesos We do this all day Every day, so dame un beso Give me a kiss, mwah! Be right back, now watch this [Andrés & Vivo] Ayy Lo le lo lai Lo le lo lai, lo le lo lei Lai le lo lei You and I, we are one of a kind Keeping time, every time [Vivo] Okay, you may be thinking "What's a kinkajou doing playing music in Cuba?" "Don't you usually live in the rain forest?" Maybe I fell in a shipping crate as a baby Next thing I knew, I was somewhere new I wasn't singing the same chorus All I remember was being hungry And running from somebody even hungrier Chasing me up this very tree But guess who came to the rescue with his tres? Andrés, yes! And he blessed me with his melody [Andrés] Where did you come from, chiquito? Ah! You really love music, don't you? Come down from the tree You can stay with me Mmm, but what will your name be? You're so full of music and life And I have the perfect name for you! Vivo! [Vivo] And if y'all like that Won't you pass the hat? Right along like that Won't you pass the hat? Yeah, if y'all like that Won't you pass the hat? It's Vivo, I'm faster than your average cat! [Andrés & Vivo] And if y'all like that Won't you pass the hat? Right along like that Won't you pass the hat? Yeah, if y'all like that Won't you pass the hat? [Vivo] Yeah, I've adapted to my habitat [Andrés & Vivo] You and I, we are one of a kind [Andrés] Keeping time [Vivo] Keeping time [Andrés] Right on time [Vivo] Right on time! Ayy [Andrés & Vivo] Lo le lo lai Lo le lo lai, lo le lo lei Lai le lo lei [Ensemble] We all like that So we pass the hat Right along like that So we pass the hat [Andrés & Vivo] You and I, we are one of a kind [Ensemble] They are one of a kind!
