Check one, two, three
Check one, two, three
This is Benny on the dispatch, yo
Atención, yo, attention
It’s Benny and I’d like to mention
I’m on the microphone this mornin’
Honk ya horn if you want it

[Car horns honk.]

[BENNY]
Okay, we got traffic on the west side
Get off at Seventy-Ninth and take the left side
Of Riverside Drive and you might slide
West End’s ya best friend if you catch the lights
And don’t take the Deegan
Manny Ramirez is in town this weekend
Sorry, Dominicans, take Route Eighty-Seven
You ain’t gettin' back in again

(spoken)
Hold up a minute!

[NINA]
Benny, hey
[BENNY]
Nina, you’re home today!

[NINA]
Any sign—

[BENNY]
Of your folks? They’re on their way

[NINA]
Anyway—

[BENNY]
It’s good to see your face

[NINA]
Anytime—

[BENNY]
Hold up a minute, wait!
You used to run this dispatch, right?

[NINA]
Once or twice

[BENNY]
Well check the technique, yo!
There’s a traffic accident I have to mention at the intersection
Of Tenth Ave and the Jacob Javits Convention Center
And check it, don’t get stuck in the rubber-neckin’
On a Hundred Ninety-Second
There’s a double-decker bus wreck
[BENNY (NINA)]
Now listen up, we got a special guest! (Benny)
Live and direct from a year out west (Benny)
Welcome her back, 'cause she looks mad stressed
Nina Rosario, the barrio’s best!

[Car horns honk.]

[BENNY]
Woo!
Honk your horns
She’s smiling
Say hello!

[NINA (BENNY)]
Hello (Woo, woo)
Good morning!
I better find my folks
Thanks for the welcome wagon

[BENNY]
Anytime, anytime, Nina
Wait here with me
It’s gettin' hot outside, turn up the A.C.
Stay here with me
