Stephen Sondheim
Quintet

[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, "Okay, no rumpus, no tricks"
But just in case they jump us, we're ready to mix
Tonight

[JETS]
We're gonna rock it tonight
We're gonna jazz it up and have us a ball

[SHARKS]
They're gonna get it tonight;
The more they turn it on the harder they'll fall

[JETS]
Well, they 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
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, RIFF, ICE]
Tonight, tonight (We'll be in back of you, boy! Right)
Won't be just any night (We're gonna flatten him good! Right)
Tonight there will be no morning star (One, two, three!) (One, two, three!)
(And then we'll have us a ball tonight)

[MARIA, SHARKS, 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)
[TONY & MARIA, SHARKS, JETS, ANITA]
Today the minutes seem like hours (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 (And we're the ones...) (They began it)
(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, grow bright (The Sharks are gonna have their way) (The Jets are gonna have their way) (Tonight)
And make this endless day (The Sharks are gonna have their day) (The Jets are gonna have their day) (This very night)
Endless night (We're gonna rock it tonight) (We're gonna rock it tonight) (We're gonna rock it tonight)

[ALL]
Tonight!
