96,000
USNAVI：Ninety six thousand!
SONNY/BENNY：Damn!
USNAVI：Ninety six thousand!
SONNY：Dollars? Holla!
USNAVI：Ninety six thousand!
BENNY: 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!
Then maybe if you're lucky
You'll stay friends with me!
I'll be a businessman, richer than Nina's daddy!
Donald Trump and I on the links and he's my caddy!
My money's makin' money, I'm goin' from po' to mo' dough!
Keep the bling, I want the brass ring, like Frodo!
USNAVI: Oh no, here goes Mr. Braggadocio
Next thing you know, you're lying like Pinocchio—
BENNY: If you're scared of the bull, stay out the rodeo!
GRAFFITI PETE: Yo, I got more holes than a phone book in Tokyo!
USNAVI: Ooh, you better stop rappin'
You're not ready
It's gonna get hot and heavy
And you already sweaty—
GRAFFITI PETE: Yo-yo-yo-yo—
USNAVI: Yo Yo, I'm sorry is that an answer?
Shut up, go home and pull ya damn pants up!
As for you, Mr. Frodo of the Shire—
96 G's ain't enough to retire
BENNY: Come on, I'll have enough to knock your ass off its axis!
USNAVI: You'll have a knapsack full of jack after taxes!
SONNY: Ninety six thousand!
ABUELA CLAUDIA: Ay, alabanza!
SONNY: Ninety six thousand!
DANIELA/CARLA: No me diga!
SONNY: Ninety six thousand!
VANESSA: I never win shit!
SONNY: Ninety six thousand!
BENNY: For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow
Down the highway of life with no regrets
And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck
For real though, I'll take a break from the wheel and we'll throw
The biggest block party, everybody here
It's a weekend when we can breathe, take it easy…
NEIGHBORS: Yo! Ma it's me, check my tickets!
CARLA: Check one two three
What would you do with ninety-six G's—
DANIELA: Who me?
CARLA: I mean if it's just between you and me—
DANIELA: Esa pregunta es tricky!
CARLA: I know
DANIELA: Ninety-six G's
I'd start my life with a brand new lease
Atlantic City with a Malibu Breeze
CARLA: And a brand new weave—
DANIELA: Or maybe just bleach
VANESSA: Y'all are freaks
USNAVI: Yo, I'm just sayin'
It's silly when we get into these crazy hypotheticals
You really want some bread then go ahead create a set of goals
And cross them off the list as you pursue 'em
And with those ninety-six I know precisely what I'm doin'
VANESSA: What you doin'?
USNAVI: What'm I doin? What'm I doin?
It takes most of that cash just to save my ass from financial ruin
Sonny can keep the coffee brewin', I'll spend a few on you
'Cuz the only room with a view's a room with you in it
And I could give Abuela Claudia the rest of it
Just fly me down to Puerto Plata, I'll make the best of it
You really love this business?
SONNY: No
USNAVI: Tough, Merry Christmas
You're now the youngest tycoon in Washington Hiznits
SONNY: Yo!
With ninety six thousand, I'd finally fix housin'
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Give the barrio computers with wireless web browsin'
Your kids are livin' without a good edjumication
Change the station, teach em about gentrification
The rent is escalatin'
GRAFFITI PETE: What?!
SONNY: The rich are penetratin'
GRAFFITI PETE: What?
SONNY: We pay our corporations when we should be demonstratin'
GRAFFITI PETE: What?!
SONNY: What about immigration?
GRAFFITI PETE: What?
SONNY: Politicians be hatin'
GRAFFITI PETE: What?
SONNY: Racism in this nation's gone from latent to blatant
I'll cash my ticket and picket
Invest in protest
Never lose my focus till the city takes notice
And you know this man! I'm never sleepin'
Because the ghetto has a million promises for me to keep!
VANESSA: You are so cute!
SONNY: I was just thinking off the top of my head
USNAVI: 96k. Go
VANESSA: If I win the lottery, you'll never see me again
USNAVI: Damn, we only jokin', stay broke then
VANESSA: I'll be downtown
Get a nice studio, I'll get out of the barrio
If I win the lottery (For real, though, imagine how it would feel goin' real slow)
You'll wonder where I've been (Down the highway of life with no regrets; And no breakin' your neck for respect or a paycheck—)
I'll Be Downtown (For real Though I'll take a break from the wheel...) ((It's crazy when we get into these crazy hypotheticals...))
See you around
If I win the lottery
You won't see a lot of me
I'll be downtown
See you around!
Woah-oh
Woah-oh
Woah-oh (I'll be downtown
Woah-oh
Woah-oh
USNAVI/BENNY/SONNY: We could pay off the debts We owe!
VANESSA/CARLA/DANIELA: We could tell everyone We know!
USNAVI: I could get on a plane and Go!
BENNY/SONNY: We be swimmin' in dough Yo!
COMMUNITY: No tip-toein'
We'll get the dough 'n'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna
Stop tip-toein'
We'll get the dough an'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna—
Ninety six thousand (we're never gonna)
Ninety six thousand (once we get goin')
Ninety six thousand
We'll get the
Dough 'n'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna stop!
