Champagne lyrics

Champagne


VANESSA
So I got you a present
I went downtown to get it
You doing anything tonight?

USNAVI
Cleaning

VANESSA
You're done for the day

USNAVI
No way

VANESSA
Cuz we got a date

USNAVI
Okay

VANESSA
Before you board that plane
I owe you a bottle of cold champagne

USNAVI
No

VANESSA
Yeah, cold champagne

USNAVI
Damn, the bottle's all sweaty and everything
You went and got this?

VANESSA
Pop the champagne

USNAVI
I don't know if we have coffee cups
Or plastic cups
I think Sonny has the cups-

VANESSA
Tonight we're drinking straight from the bottle
Usnavi?

USNAVI
Yeah?

VANESSA
Daniela told me what you did for me
And it's honestly the sweetest thing anyone ever did for me
Now what can I say or do to possibly repay you for your kindness?

USNAVI
How do you get this gold shit off?

VANESSA
Usnavi!

USNAVI
Yeah!

VANESSA
Before we both leave town
Before the corner changes
And the signs are taken down
Let's walk around the neighborhood and say our goodbyes
Usnavi, are you alright?

USNAVI
I'm fine, I'm tryin'a open this champagne
See the twisty thing is broken
But I'm gonna open this damn champagne

VANESSA
Let me see it

USNAVI
No, I got it

VANESSA
Yo, Usnavi, drop the champagne

USNAVI
I mean you went to all this trouble to get us a little bubbly-

VANESSA
And it's gonna be okay

USNAVI
I'm sorry, it's been a long day

VANESSA
You oughta stay

USNAVI
What?

VANESSA
You can use that money to fix this place

USNAVI
Ha ha, very funny

VANESSA
And it's not like Sonny's got role models-

USNAVI
Role models?

VANESSA
Stepping up to the plate

USNAVI
Yo, what are you talking about?

VANESSA
I'm just saying, I think your vacation can wait

USNAVI
Vacation? Vanessa, you're leaving too

VANESSA
I'm going down to West 4th Street
You can take the A

USNAVI
What are you trying to say?

VANESSA
You're leaving the country and we're never gonna see you again

USNAVI
What are you trying to say?

VANESSA
You get everyone addicted to your coffee and off you go

USNAVI
Vanessa, I don't know why you're mad at me

VANESSA
I wish I was mad.
(She kisses him)
I'm just too late.
