Tonight (Quintet and Chorus)

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 them right

We're gonna hand 'em a surprise

Tonight

We're gonna cut 'em down to size

Tonight

We said, "Okay, 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

We're 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

Tonight, tonight (So I can count on you, boy? All right)

Won't be just any night (We're gonna have us a ball! All right)

Tonight there will be no morning star (Womb to tomb.) (Sperm to worm)

I'll see you there about eight

Tonight

Tonight, tonight (We're gonna rock it tonight) (Tonight)

I'll see my love tonight (We're gonna jazz it tonight) (Tonight)

And for us stars will stop where they are (They're gonna get it tonight)

(Late tonight, we're gonna mix it tonight) (Tonight)

Today the minutes seem like hours (They began it ) (They began it)

(Anita's gonna have her day)

The hours go so slowly (They began it) (They began it)

(Anita's gonna have her day)

And still the sky is light ( They began it) (And we're the ones...)

(Bernardo's gonna have his way)

(...To stop 'em once and for all) (Tonight)

(We'll stop 'em once and for all) (Tonight)

Oh, moon (The Jets are) (The Sharks are) (Tonight)

Grow bright (Gonna have their way) (Gonna have their way)

And make this (The Jets are) (The Sharks are) (This very night)

Endless day (Gonna have their day) (Gonna have their day)

Endless night (We're gonna rock it tonight)

(We're gonna rock it tonight) (We're gonna rock it tonight)

Tonight!
