As far as you can see from the top of the Wonder Wheel...

[CLEON]
From Coney Island Creek to the Stillwell subway station...
[CLEON & COCHISE]
The Warriors are here

[COWGIRL & FOX]
Come out, come out, come out, come out and play...

[CLEON & SWAN, COWGIRL & FOX]
We keep it safe, we keep it clean (Hey)
When shit goes down, we intervene (Hey)
Every summer, we go to war
With every fly-by-night gang who wants to see the shore and (Hey)
We hold this boardwalk down

[AJAX]
So why are we leavin'?

[REMBRANDT, spoken]
Yeah

[AJAX & REMBRANDT]
Why the fuck we gotta go uptown?

[CLEON & COCHISE]
'Cause Cyrus holds the crown

[SWAN]
Think we need a better reason
[SWAN & AJAX]
We've never gone that far uptown...

[CLEON]
But the truce is on and Cyrus made that happen

[FOX, spoken]
Word

[CLEON & COCHISE]
And the truth is we all wanna know what happens now...

[SWAN]
If the night goes sideways...

[REMBRANDT, spoken]
What?

[AJAX]
We really should be packin'

[CLEON, spoken]
No!

[SWAN]
And we're stuck uptown...

[COWGIRL]
Uh-huh, uh-huh

[SWAN]
It's a long way down

[FOX]
It's a long way

[CLEON, FOX]
Cyrus is magic (Down, down, down)
Whole lotta magic

[SWAN & FOX]
We're going in all by ourselves

[FOX & COWGIRL]
It's a long way

[CLEON, FOX & COWGIRL]
Hey! You better have my back (Down, down, down)
'Cause this is happenin'

[CLEON & COCHISE]
We're going in like everybody else...

[AJAX, FOX & COWGIRL]
Yes, we wreak havoc and beat traffic
(Come out, come out, come out, come out)
Rembrandt, you bring the cans and keep taggin' our sweet graphic
(Come out, come out, come out, come out)

[AJAX & REMBRANDT (FOX & COWGIRL)]
And see where all of NYC stands when we keep at it
(Come out, come out, come out, come out)
'Cause anybody testin' these hands will see static, capiche? (Hey)

[ALL FIVE BOROUGHS]
Survive the night

[TRAIN CONDUCTOR, ALL FIVE BOROUGHS]
Last stop, Van Cortlandt Park (Survive the night)

[ALL FIVE BOROUGHS]

Bring your swagger and your spark
To Van Cortlandt park

[DJ & CLEON]
Hey boppers
Cyrus wants seven delegates from each crew
This means you

[DJ, CLEON & SWAN]
Hey boppers
The truce is on
Leave your weapons back at home, don't pack no chrome

Hey boppers
Rep your set with your head high

[DJ]
Can we unify all of NY?
We run the night...

Annotations

The first thing you hear is pure electricity — names crackling off the boardwalk like neon:

  • Kenita Miller steps in as Cochise, fresh from for colored girls…
  • Sasha Hutchings saddles up as the fearless Cowgirl, Oklahoma! boots and all.
  • Phillipa Soo slips into Fox, quiet steel behind Hamilton eyes.
  • Amber Gray storms forward as Ajax, Hadestown ferocity in every syllable.
  • Gizel Jiménez tags the beat as Rembrandt, spray-can swagger straight from tick, tick…Boom!
  • Jasmine Cephas-Jones lands the final blow—Swan—delivered with the same sly shrug she once gave “…and Peggy.”
From Coney Island Creek to the Stillwell subway station… the Warriors are here
They stake turf like poets, mapping the borough in three breaths—Wonder Wheel to boardwalk to the rumble of the D-train. It’s geography as heartbeat.

Listen for the callbacks:

  • Cleon’s “Cyrus is magic, whole lotta magic” lifts straight from the 1979 film’s montage, a love-letter in neon.
  • Rembrandt’s cans aren’t props—they’re weapons of legacy. Every hiss of paint leaves the red W bleeding across Woodlawn, subway windows, Union Square. Tag the city or lose it.
  • When Ajax growls “we really should be packin’”, Cleon’s sharp No! isn’t just diplomacy—it’s survival. Seven delegates, no chrome, one truce. The math is brutal.

And yes, that final call for “unify” echoes Queen Latifah’s U-N-I-T-Y—a Bronx-born prayer disguised as a battle-cry. The night belongs to whoever shows up with nothing but a name and nerve.
