The Family Madrigal Songtext
von Lin‐Manuel Miranda

Drawers!
Floors!
Doors!
Let′s go!

This is our home, we've got every generation
So full of music, a rhythm of its own design
This is my family, a perfect constellation
So many stars, and everybody gets to shine

Whoa, but let′s be clear, Abuela runs this show
Whoa, she led us here so many years ago
Whoa, and every year, our family blessings grow
There's just a lot you simply got to know, so

Welcome to the family Madrigal
The home of the family Madrigal (we're on our way)
Where all the people are fantastical and magical
I′m part of the family Madrigal


Oh my gosh, it′s them!
What are the gifts? I can't remember all the gifts
But I don′t know who's who
All right, all right, relax
It is physically impossible to relax!
Tell us everything! What are your powers?
Just tell us what everyone can do!
And that′s why coffee's for grown-ups

My tía Pepa, her mood affects the weather
When she′s unhappy, well, the temperature gets weird
My tío Bruno (we don't talk about Bruno)
They say he saw the future, one day, he disappeared

Oh, and that's my mom, Julieta, here′s her deal
Whoa, the truth is she can heal you with a meal
Whoa, her recipes are remedies for real
If you′re impressed, imagine how I feel, mom!

Welcome to the family Madrigal
The home of the family Madrigal (hey, coming through!)
I know it sounds a bit fantastical and magical
But I'm part of the family Madrigal

Two guys fell in love with family Madrigal
And now, they′re part of the family Madrigal
So, yeah, Tío Félix married Pepa
And my dad married Julieta
That's how Abuela became an abuela Madrigal
Let′s go, let's go


We swear to always help those around us
And earn the miracle that somehow found us
The town keeps growing, the world keeps turning
But work and dedication will keep the miracle burning
And each new generation must keep the miracle burning

Wait, who′s the sister and who's the cousin?
There's so many people!
How do you keep them all straight?
Okay, okay, okay, okay

So many kids in our house, so, let′s turn the sound up
You know why? I think it′s time for a grandkid round-up
Grandkid round-up

Cousin Dolores can hear a pin drop
Camilo shape-shifts, Antonio gets his gift today
My older sisters, Isabela and Luisa
One strong, one graceful, perfect in every way

(Isabela) grows a flower and the town goes wild
(Isabela) she's a perfect golden child
(Luisa, Luisa, Luisa) and Luisa′s super strong
The beauty and the brawn do no wrong

That's life in the family Madrigal (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Now, you know the family Madrigal (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Where all the people are fantastical and magical (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
That′s who we are in the family Madrigal
Adiós! Ooh!

But what's your gift?

Huh, well, I gotta go, the life of a Madrigal (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
But now, you all know the family Madrigal (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
I never meant this to get autobiographical (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
So just to review the family Madrigal, let′s go

(But what about Mirabel?)
It starts with Abuela, and then Tía Pepa, she handles the weather
(But what about Mirabel?)
My mom, Julieta, can make you feel better with just one arepa
(But what about Mirabel?)
My dad Agustín, well, he's accident-prone, but he means well
(But what about Mirabel?)
Hey, you said you want to know what everyone does
I got sisters and cousins and (Mirabel)

My primo Camilo won't stop until he makes you smile today (Mirabel)
My cousin Dolores can hear this whole chorus a mile away (Mirabel)
Look, it′s Mr. Mariano, hey, you can marry my sister if you wanna (Mirabel)
Between you and me, she′s kind of a prima donna
Yo, I've said too much and thank you

But I really gotta go (Mirabel)
My family′s amazing (Mirabel)
And I'm in my family, so (Mirabel)
Well... (Mirabel!)
