What The Heck I Gotta Do

Lin-Manuel Miranda

The plan was called "Operation D-Minus"
And one of the schools included in the plan
Was Park Vista Community High School
Where a kid named Justin Laboy

That's me

An eighteen-year-old honor roll student

I get straight A's, man

Was in the last semester of his senior year
Justin could hardly believe his luck
When a very pretty girl showed up (Naomi)

In not one but two of his classes (Naomi)

She sat in front of him
He switched seats (Naomi)

The last name she used was (Rodriguez)

Justin, what drew you to Naomi initially?

Man, she used to fall asleep in class
She was a light-skinneded Puerto Rican-Dominican
Long hair, mature in the body like whoa (like, whoa)
That's not the only reason I liked her, though
She said she moved with her mother to Florida from New York
(Where dreams are made)
Well, so did I
So I said, hi
She seemed mature, and I talked more
(More, more, more)

And I was like, what the heck I gotta do to be with you?
(What the heck I gotta do?)
What the heck I gotta do to be with you?
(What the heck I gotta do?)
Who do I have to be for you to be with me?

You told her all this in class?

Yeah, well, I texted her

Y'know, I was like, "what the heck I gotta do to be with you?"
(L-O-L-O-L-O-L)
What the heck I gotta do to be with you?
(R-O-F-L-O-L)
Who do I have to be for you to be with me?

Smiley face

Yes! Next thing you know, we're texting day and night
I trust her right away (like, whoa!)

Hey, yo, I never met anyone like her, bro
Yo, she listens to all my problems
I let her copy all my homework
And then I lay it all on the line
And she was like
(No, no)
No! She didn't say no exactly
I don't know
(No, no, no, no)
Yeah, I was surprised
I'm a pretty great guy
(So? So?)
So, I decided I needed to step my game up
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
It's too late to be shy
And so I got in front of the whole class one day
And serenaded her

I was like, what the heck I gotta do to be with you?
(What the heck I gotta do?)
What the heck I gotta do to be with you?
(What the heck I gotta do?)
Who do I have to be for you to go to prom with me?

You asked her to the prom?

Yeah! I danced and everything (Naomi)
Naomi! I know there's a reason you were transferred here to me (Naomi)
Naomi! I know there's a reason this isn't luck, it's destiny (Naomi)
Naomi! You know me! Will you go to prom with me?

I'll think about it

(She'll think about it)
(She'll think about it)
(She'll think about it)
(She'll think about it)
She said she'd think about it
(She'll think about it)
She'll think about it
(Think about it)
She'll think about it
(She'll think about it)
(She'll think about it)

Yes!
