West Side Story - Tonight (ensemble) (movie) lyrics

Your rating:

JETS

The Jets are gonna have their day

Tonight

The Jets are gonna have their way

Tonight



The Puerto Ricans grumble

Fair fight

But if they start a rumble

We'll rumble 'em right



SHARKS

We're gonna hand 'em a surprise

Tonight

We're gonna cut 'em down to size

Tonight



We said OK, no rumpus

No tricks

But just in case they jump us

We're ready to mix

Tonight



JETS and SHARKS

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



SHARKS

Well they began it!



JETS

Well they began it!



JETS and SHARKS

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

Poor dear

Don't matter if he's tired

As long as he's here

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



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



JETS

The Jets are comin' out on top

Tonight

We're gonna watch Bernardo drop

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 she has just sung)



RIFF

We'll be in back of you boy



ICE

Right



RIFF

You're gonna flatten him good



ICE

Right



RIFF

One two three!



ICE

One two three!



RIFF

And then we'll have us a ball

Tonight...



SHARKS

We're gonna rock it tonight



ANITA

Tonight



(all have begun singing at once, reprising what they've sung before)



SHARKS

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!



JETS

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!
