The Jets are gonna have their day |
|
Tonight. |
|
The Sharks are gonna have their way |
|
Tonight. |
|
The Puerto Ricans grumble: "Fair fight." |
|
But if they start a rumble, |
|
We'll rumble 'em right. |
|
We're gonna hand 'em a surprise |
|
Tonight. |
|
We're gonna cut 'em down to size |
|
Tonight. |
|
We said, "O.K., no rumpus, |
|
No tricks." |
|
But just in case they jump us, |
|
We're ready to mix |
|
Tonight. |
|
We're gonna rock it tonight, |
|
We're gonna jazz it up and have us a ball! |
|
They're gonna get it tonight; |
|
The more they turn it on the harder they'll fall! |
|
Well, they began it! |
|
Well, they began it! |
|
And we're the ones to stop 'em once and for all, |
|
Tonight! |
|
Anita's gonna get her kicks |
|
Tonight. |
|
We'll have our private little mix |
|
Tonight. |
|
He'll walk in hot and tired, |
|
So what? |
|
Don't matter if he's tired, |
|
As long as he's hot |
|
Tonight! |
|
Tonight, tonight, |
|
Won't be just any night, |
|
Tonight there will be no morning star. |
|
Tonight, tonight, I'll see my love tonight. |
|
And for us, stars will stop where they are. |
|
Today |
|
The minutes seem like hours, |
|
The hours go so slowly, |
|
And still the sky is light . . . |
|
Oh moon, grow bright, |
|
And make this endless day endless night! |
|
I'm counting on you to be there |
|
Tonight. |
|
When Diesel wins it fair and square |
|
Tonight. |
|
That Puerto Rican punk'll |
|
Go down. |
|
And when he's hollered "Uncle" |
|
We'll tear up the town! |
|
So I can count on you, boy? |
|
All right. |
|
We're gonna have us a ball. |
|
All right. |
|
Womb to tomb! |
|
Sperm to worm! |
|
I'll see you there about eight. |
|
Tonight . . . |
|
Tonight, tonight |
|
Won't be just any night, |
|
Tonight there will be no morning star, |
|
We're gonna rock it tonight! |
|
They're gonna get it tonight, |
|
They began it, |
|
They began it, |
|
The began it. |
|
We'll stop 'em once and for all. |
|
The Sharks are gonna have their way, |
