Tonight

Lyrics

[RIFF] The Jet 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 & SHARKS] We're gonna hand 'em a surprise Tonight [RIFF & JETS] We're gonna cut 'em down to size Tonight [BERNARDO] We said, "Okay, no rumpus, no tricks" But just in case they jump us We're ready to mix [JETS & SHARKS] 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 thе harder they'll fall [JETS] Well, thеy began it! [SHARKS] Well, they began it! [JETS & 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 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, to TONY] 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 [RIFF] So I can count on you, boy? [TONY] All right [MARIA] Won't be just any night [RIFF] We're gonna have us a ball [TONY] All right [MARIA] Tonight there will be no morning star [RIFF, spoken] Womb to tomb.  [TONY, spoken] Sperm to worm.  [RIFF] I'll see you there about eight [TONY] All right [MARIA, SHARKS, JETS, ANITA] 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) [MARIA & TONY, SHARKS, JETS, ANITA] 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...)
