SCENE ELEVEN
“WATERBUG”
Members of the Tamanero gang hand off a white bag of cocaine to Waterbug and give him strict instructions on what he is to do. They are rough and seedy in appearance.
In Bmin
Enforcer Waterbug, here’s your big chance, to be worthy to join our gang
Take this bag as a runner, if you blow it, you could hang.
There’s a man who’ll be holding a white bag
By the Copacabana Beach
He will signal by match at Eleven O’clock.
And then switch the bag within his reach.
In Cmin
Gang Member 1 Waterbug, here’s a warning. Keep a look out for police.
There’s a new captain, named Busetto, and his pockets we can’t grease.
He won’t know you by name
WB Not a problem
Gang Member 2 But he’s desperate for fame
WB Not a problem
Gang Member 1 If he’s onto your game..
Gang Member 2 He will nail you so fast, the man is so filled with contempt.
In C#min
Enforcer Waterbug, I ain’t jokin. Tamanero is a fiend.
And his money is so tainted, once you touch it your hands can’t be cleaned.
WB But I tell you I’ve got to be wealthy
Gang unison Not a problem
WB And the system can get me no jobs
Gang unison Not a problem
WB And the rich piss on me so a runner I’ll be, selling drugs to these decadent slobs.
