Carnaval Del Barrio

Hey... Hey...
 What's this tonteria that I'm seeing on the street?
 I never thought I'd see the day...
 Since when are Latin people scared of heat?
 When i was a little girl
 Growing up in the hills of Vega Alta
 My favorite time of year was Chrstmas time!
 Ask me why!
 Why?
 There wasn't an ounce of snow
 But, oh, the coquito would flow
 As we sang the aguinaldo
 The carnaval would begin to grow!
 Business is closed, and we're about to go...
 Let's have a carnaval del barrio!
 Wepa!
 Carnaval del barrio!
 Carnaval del barrio!
 Carnaval...
 Carnaval!
 Del barrio...
 Barrio!
 Carnaval...
 Carnaval!
 Del barrio...
 Barrio!
 We don't need electricidad
 Get off your butt, avanza
 Saca la maraca, bring your tambourine
 Come and join the parranda
 Wepa!
 Carnaval
 Del barrio
 Ohh, me me me, Dani I have a question
 I don't know what you're cantando
 Just make it up as you go
 We are improvisando:
 Lai le lo lai lo le lo lai
 You can sing anything
 Wha?
 Carla, whatever pops into your head
 Just so long as you sing
 Ummm...
 My mom is Dominican-Cuban
 My dad is from Chile and P.R.,
 Which means:
 I'm Chile-...Dominica-Rican!
 But I always say I'm from Queens!
 Wepaaa!
 Carnaval
 Del barrio
 Yo!
 Why is everyone so happy?
 We are sweating and we have no power
 I've gotta get out of here soon
 This block's getting worse by the hour!
 You can't even go to the club with a friend
 Without having somebody shove you!
 Ay, por favor
 Vanessa don't pretend that Usnavi's your friend
 We all know that he love you!
 Ohhhh!!!
 Wow, now that you mention that sexual tension, it's easy to see!
 Yo this is bogus...
 Haven't you noticed you get all your coffee for free?
 Carnaval
 Del Barrio
 Here comes Usnavi!
 Yo, yo, yo y-y-yo-yo
 Now, now, everyone gather 'round, sit down, listen,
 I got an announcement
 Wow, it involves large amounts, it's
 Somewhere in the range of 96, 000
 Atencion, I'm closing shop
 Sonny, grab everybody a soda pop!
 Yo, grab a bottle, kiss it up to God,
 Cuz Abuela Claudia just won the lotto!
 Abuela Claudia won the lotto
 We're bookin a flight for D.R. tomorrow
 Oh my gah!
 Alza la bandera

 Alzala donde quiera
 Recuerdo de mi tierra
 Hey!
 Hey!
 Me acuerdo de mi tierra...
 Esa bonita bandera!
 Contiene mi alma entera!
 Y cuando yo me muera,
 Entierrame en mi tierra!
 Hey!
 Hey!
 Everything changes today
 Hey!
 Usnavi's on his way
 Hey!
 Off to a better place
 Hey!
 Look at Vanessa's face!
 Everything changes today...
 Hey!
 Goodbye, Mr. Rosario...
 Okay!
 I'm taking over the barrio!
 We're getting out of the barrio!
 Hey, Mr. Benny, have you seen any horses today?
 Hey!
 What do you mean?
 I heard you and Nina went for a roll in the-
 Hay! Hey! Ohhhhh!
 Benny and Nina
 Sitting in a tree
 K-I-S-S-I-N-G
 Que bochinche
 Nina and Benny
 K-I-S-S-I-N-G
 Hold up, wait a minute
 Wait a minute!
 Usnavi's leavin' us for the Dominican Republic?
 And Benny went and stole the girl that I'm in love with?
 She was my babysitter first!
 Whoo!
 Listen up, this is what ya'll want?
 We close this bodega,
 The neighborhood is gone!
 They selling the dispatch,
 They closing the salon
 And they'll never turn the lights back on cuz-
 We are powerless,
 We are powerless!
 But ya'll keep dancin' and singin' and celebratin'
 But it's gettin' late and this place is disintegratin' and-
 We are powerless,
 We are powerless!
 Alright we are powerless, so light up a candle!
 There's nothing going on here that we can't handle!
 You don't understand, I'm not trying to be funny!
 We're gonna give a third of the money to you, Sonny!
 What?
 Yeah, yeah...
 For real?
 Yes!
 Maybe you're right, Sonny.
 Call in the coroners
 Maybe we're powerless, a corner full of foreigners.
 Maybe this neighborhood's changing forever
 Maybe tonight is our last night together, however!
 How do you wanna face it?
 Do you wanna waste it, when the end is so close you can taste it?
 Y'all could cry with your head in the sand
 I'm a fly this flag that I got in my hand!
 Parriba esa bandera
 Hey!
 Alzala donde quiera
 Hey!
 Can we raise our voice tonight?
 Can we make a little noise tonight?
 Hey!
 Esa bonita bandera
 Contiene mi alma entera
 Hey!
 Hey!
 USNAVI
 In fact, can we sing so loud and raucous
 They can hear us across the bridge in East Seacaucus?
 Parriba esa bandera!
 Alzala donde quiera!
 Carnaval Del Barrio...
 From Puerto Rico to Santo Domingo
 Wherever we go
 We rep our people and the beat go...
 Esa bonita bandera!
 Contiene mi alma entera!
 Carnaval Del Barrio...
 Vanessa, forget about what coulda been
 Dance with me, one last night, in the hood again.
 Wepa!
