Lyrics - Quintet by West Side Story

JETSThe
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
SHARKSWe'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
JETSWe're gonna rock it tonight
We're gonna jazz it up
And have us a ball
SHARKSThey're gonna get it tonight
The more they turn it on
The harder they'll fall
JETSWell they began it
SHARKSWell they began it
JETS &
SHARKSAnd we're the ones to stop'em once and for all
Tonight
ANITAAnita'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 near
Tonight
TONYTonight, 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
MARIAToday 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
JETSThe
Jets are coming 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
RIFF :
We'll be backing you boy
ICE :

RIFF :
You're gonna flat him good
ICE :
Right

And for us stars will stop
Where they are

We're gonna jazz it tonight
They're gonna get it tonight
