West Side Story

    [Riff]
    When you're a jet, you're a jet all the way
    From your first cigarette to your last dyin' day
    When you're a jet, let 'em do what they can
    You got brothers around, you're a family man
    You're never alone
    You're never disconnected
    You're home with your own
    When company's expected
    You're well-protected
    Then you are set with a capital j
    Which you'll never forget till they cart you away
    When you're a jet
    You stay a jet!

    Now I know tony like I know me
    And I guarantee you can count him in

    In, out
    Let's get crackin'!

    Where you gonna find Bernardo?

    [A-rab]
    Yeah, but the gym's neutral territory!

    [Riff]
    A-rab, I'm gonna make nice with him. I'm only gonna challenge him

    [Ice]
    Great, daddy-o!

    [Riff]
    So listen, everybody dress up sweet and sharp
    Meet tony and me at the dance at the ten
    And walk tall!

    [A-rab]
    We always walk tall!

    [Baby John]
    We're jets!

    [Big Deal]
    The greatest!

    [Snowboy]
    When you're a jet, you're the top cat in town
    You're the gold-medal kid with the heavyweight crown

    [Ice]
    When you're a jet, you’re the swingin’ thing
    Little boy, you're a man, little man, you're a king!

    [The Jets]
    The jets are in gear
    Our cylinders are clickin'
    The sharks’ll steer clear
    'Cause every Puerto Rican's
    A lousy chicken!
    Here come the jets like a bat outta hell
    Someone gets in our way, someone don’t feel so well
    Here come the jets, little world, step aside
    Better go underground, better run, better hide

    We’re drawin' the line
    So keep your noses hidden
    We’re hangin' a sign
    Says: Visitors forbidden
    And we ain't kiddin'
    Here come the jets, yeah! And we're gonna beat
    Every last buggin' gang on the whole buggin' street
    On the whole buggin'-ever-lovin' street!
    Yeah!
