RIFF The Jets are gonna have their day Tonight BERNARDO The Sharks are gonna have their way Tonight RIFF The Puerto Ricans grumble Fair fight But if they start a rumble We'll rumble 'em right BERNARDO We're gonna hand 'em a surprise Tonight RIFF We're gonna cut 'em down to size Tonight BERNARDO We said OK, no rumpus No tricks But just in case they jump us We're ready to mix Tonight RIFF and BERNARDO 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 fall RIFF Well they began it! BERNARDO Well they began it! RIFF and BERNARDO And we're the ones to stop 'em once and for all Tonight! ANITA 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 TONY 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 RIFF 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 MARIA Tonight, tonight Won't be just any night... (she reprises the same chorus that TONY has just sung) RIFF So can I count on you boy? TONY All right RIFF We're gonna have us a ball TONY All right RIFF Womb to tomb! TONY Sperm to worm! RIFF I'll see you there abought eight TONY Tonight... BERNARDO We're gonna rock it tonight ANITA Tonight (all have begun singing at once, reprising what they've sung before) BERNARDO We're gonna jazz it tonight They're gonna get it tonight - tonight They began it They began it And we're the ones To stop 'em once and for all The Sharks are gonna have their way The Sharks are gonna have their day We're gonna rock it tonight Tonight! ANITA Tonight Late tonight We're gonna mix it tonight Anita's gonna have her day Anita's gonna have her day Bernardo's gonna have his way Tonight - tonight Tonight - this very night We're gonna rock it tonight Tonight! RIFF They began it They began it We'll stop 'em once and for all The Jets are gonna have their day The Jets are gonna have their way We're gonna rock it tonight Tonight! MARIA Tonight there will be no morning star Tonight, tonight I'll see my love tonight When we kiss, stars will stop where they are TONY and MARIA 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 Tonight!
