In The Heights “In The Heights” Lyrics: [USNAVI] Lights up on Washington Heights, up at the break of day I wake up and I got this little punk I gotta chase away Pop the grate at the crack of dawn Sing while I wipe down the awning Hey y'all, good morning [PIRAGUA GUY, spoken] Ice cold piragua! Parcha. China. Cherry. Strawberry. And just for today, I got mamey! [USNAVI, spoken] Oye, piragüero, como estas? [PIRAGUA GUY, spoken] Como siempre, Señor Usnavi. Ice cold piragua! Parcha... [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 'Cause I immigrated 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 God damn, 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 'Cause I'm not makin' any profit if the coffee isn't light and sweet! [ABUELA CLAUDIA, spoken] Ooo-oo! [USNAVI, spoken] Abuela, my fridge broke. I got café but no "con leche." [ABUELA CLAUDIA, spoken] Ay Dios, try my mother's old recipe: one can of condensed milk [USNAVI, spoken] Nice. Oh wait, your lottery ticket— [ABUELA CLAUDIA, spoken] Paciencia y fe… [USNAVI] 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 shit's creek!" [WOMAN] I've never been north of Ninety-Sixth Street! [USNAVI] Well, you must take the A Train Even farther than Harlem, to northern Manhattan, and maintain Get off at 181st, 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 [ENSEMBLE] In the heights I flip the lights and start my day There are fights [WOMEN] And endless debts [MEN] And bills to pay [ENSEMBLE] In the Heights I can't survive without café [USNAVI] I serve café [ENSEMBLE] 'Cause tonight seems like a million years away! En Washington— [USNAVI] Next up, ding! Kevin Rosario He runs the cab company, he struggles in the barrio See, his daughter Nina's off at college, tuition is mad steep So he can't sleep; everything he gets is mad cheap! [KEVIN] Good morning, Usnavi! [USNAVI] Pan caliente, café con leche! [KEVIN] Put twenty dollars on today's lottery [USNAVI] Okay, must be a lucky day [KEVIN] Gotta be! [USNAVI] Oh my God, you're so excited [KEVIN] My Nina flew in at 3 A.M. last night! [USNAVI] Sweet, Abuela's been cooking all week! [KEVIN] Compay, when I see you this weekend [KEVIN & USNAVI] Oh, we gonna eat! [DANIELA] So then Yesenia walks in the room— [CARLA, spoken] Aha… [DANIELA] She smells sex and cheap perfume! [CARLA, spoken] Ooh! Ooh! [DANIELA] It smells like one of those trees That you hang from the rearview! [CARLA, spoken] Ai, no! [DANIELA] It's true! She screams, “Who's in there with you, Julio?” [USNAVI, spoken] Daniela [DANIELA] Grabs a bat and kicks in the door [USNAVI, spoken] Carla [DANIELA] He's in bed with José from the liquor store! [CARLA/USNAVI/CUCA] No me diga! [USNAVI, spoken] And that's Cuca, the salon ladies. [DANIELA/CARLA/CUCA] Thanks, Usnavi! [USNAVI, spoken] Sonny, you're late. [SONNY, spoken] Chillax, you know you love me. [USNAVI] 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?
