96,000
(USNAVI)
Ninety six thousand
(GRAFFITI PETE)
Damn...
(USNAVI)
Ninety six thousand
(SONNY)
Dollars? HOLLER!
(USNAVI)
Ninety six thousand
(BENNY)
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'd pick a business school and pay the entrance fee!
And 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, he's lying like Pinocchio
(BENNY)
If you're scared of the bull, stay out of the rodeo!
(GRAFFITI PETE)
Yo, I got more hoes than a phone book in Tokyo!
(USNAVI)
Oh, you better stop rappin'
You're not ready
It's gonna get hot and heavy and you're already sweaty
(GRAFFITI PETE)
Y-y-yo-yo-
(USNAVI)
Yo, I'm sorry was 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)
C'mon, I'll have enough cash to knock your ass off it's axis
(USNAVI)
You'll have a knapsack full of jack after taxes!
(SONNY)
Ninety six thousand
(ABUELA CLAUDIA)
Ay, Alabanza!
(SONNY)
Ninety six thousand!
(CARLA AND DANIELLA)
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
A weekend when we can breathe, take it easy...
(WOMEN)
Yo! Ma it's me, check my tickets!
(CARLA)
Check one, two, three
What would you do with 96 g's?
(DANIELLA)
Who me?
(CARLA)
I mean if it's just between you and me
(DANIELLA)
Esa pregunta es tricky
(CARLA)
I know
(DANIELLA)
With 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
(DANIELLA)
Or maybe just bleach
(VANESSA)
Ya'll 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 create a set of goals
And cross them off the list and 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'
And I'll spend a few on you
'Cuz the the only room with a view is 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'
Give the barrio computers and wireless web browsin'
Your kids are livin' without a good edumacation
Change the station, teach em' about gentrification
The rent is escalatin'
(GRAFITTI PETE)
What?
(SONNY)
The rich are penetratin'
(GRAFITTI PETE)
What?
(SONNY)
We pay our corporations when we should be demonstratin'
What about immigration?
Politicians be hatin'
Racism in this nation's gone from latent to blatant!
I'll cash my ticket and pick it, invest in protest
Never lose my focus till the city takes notice
And you know this, man!
I'll never sleep
Because the ghetto has a million promises for me to keep!
(VANESSA)
You are so cute!
(SONNY)
I was just thinkin' off the top of my head
(USNAVI)
96K. Go
(VANESSA)
If I win the lottery
You'll never see me again
(USNAVI)
Damn, we're only jokin', stay broke, then!
(VANESSA)
I'll be downtown
Get a nice studio
Get out of the barrio
If I win the lottery you'll wonder where I've been
I'll be downtown
See you around
If I win the lottery
You won't see a lot of me!
I'll be down town
See you around
If I...

Whoa!
Whoa!
I'll be downtown!

We could pay off the debts we owe!
We could tell every one we know!
I could get on a plane and go
We'd be swimmin in dough, yo

No tip-toin
We'll get the dough 'n'
Once we get goin
We never gonna
Stop tip-toin' we'll get the dough n'
Once we get goin
We're never gonna

Ninety six thousand! (we'll get the dough 'n)
Ninety six thousand (once we get goin')
Ninety six thousand!
We'll get the dough 'n'
Once we get the goin'
We're never gonna stop!
