Tonight, tonight, it all began tonight.

Puerto Rico, you lovely island... Island of tropical breezes.

I like the island Manhattan.

Hundreds of flowers in full bloom...

Now it begins, now we start. One hand, one heart.

Our mothers all are junkies, our fathers all are drunks.

Gee, Officer Krupke, we're very upset.

We ain't no delinquents, we're misunderstood.

My father is a bastard. My ma's an S.O.B. My grandpa's always plastered.

I feel pretty, oh, so pretty. I feel pretty and witty and bright!

See the pretty girl in that mirror there -

Have you met my good friend Maria, the craziest girl on the block? You'll know her the minute you see her.

Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress, such a pretty smile,

Time together with time spare.

We'll find a new way of living.

There's a place for us - a time and place for us.

When you're a Jet, you're a Jet all the way.

You're never alone, you're never disconnected! You're home with your own.

When you're a Jet, you're the swingin'est thing:

All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word...

I've just met a girl named Maria.

Maria! Say it loud and there's music playing.

Boy, boy, crazy boy. Get cool, boy!

Take it slow and, Daddy-O,

A boy like that who'd kill your brother.

A boy like that will give you sorrow.

I love him; I'm his.

I have a love, and it's all that I need.

Could it be? Yes, it could.

It may come cannonballing down through the sky.
