[JUSTIN]
I called a cousin who called a cousin who called a friend, who called a couple dozen cousins, cause it doesn't end

[COUSIN]
My cousin Justin's looking for a little something-something for a certain someone, some girl he wants to be touching

[STUDENTS]
Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something
Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something

[COUSIN 1]
We were just discussing our cousin Justin. Wasn't Justin the cousin who just made the honor roll, got the colleges buzzin'?

[COUSIN 2]
Are we close to our cousin Justin? Are we supposed to trust him?

[COUSIN 1]
Are we thugs to our cousin Justin? We don't sell drugs, man

[STUDENTS]
Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something

[NAOMI]
Did you get it yet?

[JUSTIN]
No, I'm about to get it

[NAOMI]
Is your dealer a student?

[JUSTIN]
I got you, girl. Don't sweat it

[NAOMI]
Let me know when you got it

[JUSTIN]
As soon as I can

[NAOMI]
I'll find a way to repay you, Justin

[JUSTIN]
Oh, man!

[COUSIN 1]
Yo, what is up with this fussin'? This isn't up for discussion. This is our cousin coming to us. He's our blood, and we love him

[COUSIN 2]
Ah, look at Justin. He blushing

[COUSIN 1]
Our little Justin is crushing

[COUSIN 2]
Sorry for rushing to judgement

[COUSINS]
Why should we get you these drugs?

[JUSTIN]
Love!

[COUSINS]
What?

[JUSTIN]
Only if you believe in love. Love!

[COUSINS]
Love! Love! Only if you believe in love

[COUSIN 1]
Get him the stuff

[JUSTIN]
I hand my cousin twenty-five ducats, I'm sweating buckets. He hands me a sandwich bag with some little green nuggets. I got it for you

[NAOMI]
X-O. Cool

[JUSTIN]
You want it now?

[NAOMI]
See you at school

[STUDENTS]
Everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something
