Tonight [From West Side Story] Lyrics

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 'em right

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

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!
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!

So I can count on you, boy?

All right

We're gonna have us a ball

All right

Womb to tomb!

Sperm to worm!

I'll see you there about eight

Tonight

Tonight, tonight won't be just any night
Tonight there will be no morning star
We're gonna rock it tonight!
They're gonna get it tonight they began it
They began it the began it
We'll 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!

We're gonna jazz it tonight! Tonight!
They began it and we're the ones to stop
'em once and for all!
The Jets are gonna have their way
The Jets are gonna have their day
We're gonna rock it tonight tonight!

Tonight, 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, 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 skiy is light
Oh moon, grow bright
And make this endless day endless night

Tonight!
