96,000

One of the best ensemble numbers from "In the Heights", 96,000 has the same hip-hop/dance-pop combination that makes Lin-Manuel Miranda's music so unique--AND it actually works outside of the context of the show itself. There are solo opportunities for 2 rappers, one tenor, and one soprano. Also, this chart can accommodate a complete costume change, with the SA entering at 1:10 and the TB leaving for the next minute through the "lottery" solo.

Instrumentation: Piano/Bass/Drums/Percussion/Guitar/Synth/Tpts 1 & 2/Trombone 1 & 2/Alto & Tenor Sax

Ninety six thousand,
Dang,
Ninety six thousand,
Dollars? Holler.
Ninety six thousand,
Yo, somebody won?
Ninety six thousand,
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!
Then maybe if you're lucky
You'll stay friends with me!
I'd 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!
Oh no, here goes
Mr. Braggadocio,
Next thing you know,
He's lying like Pinnochio
Well, if you're scared of the bull,
Stay out the rodeo!
Yo, I got more goals than
an all-star soccer pro.
Ooh, you better stop now,
You're not ready.
It's gonna get hot and heavy,
And you're already sweaty
Y-y-yo-yo-
Yo, I'm sorry,
Is that your answer?
Shut up, go home,
And pull ya darn pants up!
As for you,
Mr. Frodo of the shire
96 g's ain't enough to retire.
I'll have enough to knock
Your ass off its axis!
You'll have a knapsack
Full of jack after taxes!

Ninety six thousand!
Ay, alabanza!
Ninety six thousand!
No me diga!
Ninety six thousand!
I never win jack!
Ninety six thousand!

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,


Yo! Ma, it's me!
Check my tickets!
One, two, three,
What would you do
With 96 g's?
I mean, it it's just
Between you and me,
Esa pregunta es tricky!
I know.
With 96 g's,
I'd start my life with
A brand new lease.
Atlantic City with
A Malibu breeze
And a brand new weave,
Or maybe just bleach.
Y'all are freaks.

96k. Go.
If I win the lottery,
You'll never see me again.
I'll be downtown,
Get a nice studio,
I'll get out of the barrio.

If I win the lottery, 
You'll wonder where I've been.
I'll be Downtown,
See you around.

Check, one, two, three.
96 g's
Between you and me
Why-oh!
96 g's
Brand new lease
A Malibu Breeze
Why-oh!

Who-oaa! Who-oaa!
We could pay off the debts
We owe-oh-oh! 
We could tell everyone
We know-oh-oh! 
I could get on a plane
And go-oh! 
We be swimmin'
In dough, yo! 
No tip-toein'
We'll get the dough ' n' 
Once we get goin'
We never gonna
Stop tip-toein'
We'll get the dough 'n'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna
96,000
96,000
96,000
We'll get the dough 'n'
Once we get goin'
We're never gonna stop!
