Tonight (Reprise) lyrics
The Neighborhood - 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.
(Riff and the Jets, Bernardo and the Sharks, Anita
Maria and Tony all wait expectantly for the coming
of night.)
ENSEMBLE
RIFF:
The Jets 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
SHARKS:
We're gonna hand 'em a surprise
Tonight
JETS:
We're gonna cut 'em down to size
Tonight
SHARKS:
We said "O. K. no rumpus,
No tricks."
But just in case they jump us.
We're ready to mix.
Tonight!
BOTH:
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 fall!
JETS:
Well, they began it!
SHARKS:
Well, they began it -
BOTH:
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
Won't be just any night, etc.
RIFF (firmly):
So I can count on you, boy!
TONY (abstractedly):
All right
RIFF:
We're gonna have us a ball
TONY (a bit impatiently):
All right
All right
RIFF (gently): Womb to tomb!
TONY (regretting his impatience): Sperm to worm!
RIFF:
I'll see you there about eight...
TONY:
Tonight...
BERNARDO and SHARKS:
We're gonna rock it tonight!!
ANITA:
Tonight...
BERNARDO and SHARKS:
We're gonna jazz it up and have us a ball!
They're gonna get it tonight, tonight!
They began it, they began it
And we're the ones to stop 'em once and for all,
Tonight!
The Sharks are gonna have their way,
The Sharks are gonna have their day,
We're gonna rock it tonight,
Tonight!
ANITA:
Tonight,
Late tonight
We're gonna mix it tonight
Anita's gonna have her day,
Bernardo's gonna have his way
Tonight, tonight
Tonight this very night,
We're gonna rock it tonight!
RIFF and JETS:
They began it, they began it
We'll 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!
MARIA:
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!
Tonight!
TONY:
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!
Tonight!
