West Side Story
Music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Arranged by: Teresa Tan
When you're a Jet, You're a Jet all the way
From your first cigarette To your last dying day.
When you're a Jet,
If the spit hits the fan (=the shit hits the fan 惹
禍上身),
You got brothers around, You're a family man!
You're never alone,
You're never disconnected (detached 疏離的)!
You're home with your own: When company's expected (anticipated 期待), You're well protected (guarded 保護)!
Then you are set
With a capital (大寫) J,
Which you'll never forget
Till they cart you away (take away 丟棄).
When you're a Jet, You stay (remain 留在) a Jet!
The most beautiful sound I ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . . All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word . .
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
Maria!
I've just met a girl named Maria,
And suddenly that name Will never be the same To me.
Maria!
I've just kissed a girl named Maria,
And suddenly I've found How wonderful a sound Can be!
Maria!
Say it loud and there's music playing,
Say it soft and it's almost like praying.
Maria,
I'll never stop saying Maria!
The most beautiful sound I ever heard. Maria.
ANITA
Puerto Rico
My heart’s devotion (奉獻)
Let it sink back (下沉) in the ocean
Always the hurricanes (暴風雨) blowing
Always the population growing
And the money owing (unpaid 未償付),
And the sunlight streaming
And the natives steaming I like the island Manhattan Smoke on your pipe And put that in!
GIRLS
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America

ACTION
Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke,
You gotta understand,
It's just our bringin' up-ke
That gets us out of hand (失控).
Our mothers all are junkies(藥物中毒者; 沉醉
Our fathers all are drunks(=drunkards 酗酒者).
Golly Moses (驚訝感嘆詞, 我的天呀), naturally (自然地) we're punks (年輕無知的人)!
ACTION AND JETS
Gee, Officer Krupke, we're very upset (不安的); We never had the love that ev'ry (every) child oughta (ought to) get.
We ain't (are not) no delinquents (違法者), We're misunderstood (被誤解).
Deep down inside us there is good!
ACTION
There is good!
ALL
There is good, there is good, There is untapped (未教化的) good!
Like inside, the worst of us is good!
SNOWBOY: (Spoken) That's a touchin' (touching 感人的) good story.
ACTION: (Spoken) Lemme (Let me) tell it to the world!
SNOWBOY: Just tell it to the judge (法官).
ACTION
Dear kindly Judge, your Honor,
My parents treat me rough (粗魯地).
With all their marijuana (大麻),
They won't give me a puff (吸一口). They didn't wanna (want to) have me, But somehow I was had.
Leapin' (leaping 跳躍的) lizards (蜥蜴)! That's why I'm so bad!
DIESEL: (As Judge) Right!
Officer Krupke, you're really a square (老古董；
This boy don't need a judge, he needs an analyst's (分析師的) care! It's just his neurosis (精神官能症) that oughta (ought to) be curbed (抑制).
He's psychologically (精神上) disturbed (受困擾; 混亂)!
ACTION
I'm disturbed!
JETS
We're disturbed, we're disturbed,
We're the most disturbed,
Like we're psychologically disturbed.
DIESEL: (Spoken, as Judge) In the opinion on this court, this child is depraved (剝奪) on account (因為) he ain't had a normal home.
ACTION: (Spoken) Hey, I'm depraved on account I'm deprived.
DIESEL: So take him to a headshrinker (精神病醫師).
ACTION (Sings)
My father is a bastard (私生子; 混蛋),
My ma's an S.O.B (罵人的話 son of bitch). My grandpa's always plastered (醉醺醺的), My grandma pushes tea (兜售大麻). My sister wears a mustache, My brother wears a dress. Goodness gracious, that's why I'm a mess (一團糟)!
A-RAB: (As Psychiatrist 精神分析師) Yes!
Officer Krupke, you're really a slob (勢利鬼). This boy don't need a doctor, just a good honest job.
Society's played him a terrible trick,
And sociologically (社會地) he's sick!
ACTION
I am sick!
ALL
We are sick, we are sick,
We are sick, sick, sick,
Like we're sociologically sick!
A-RAB: In my opinion, this child don't need to
have his head shrunk (shrink pp當形容詞用, 縮起來) at all. Juvenile (少年的) delinquency (違法行為) is purely a social disease!
ACTION: Hey, I got a social disease!
A-RAB: So take him to a social worker!
ACTION
Dear kindly social worker,
They say go earn a buck (元).
Like be a soda jerker (冷飲櫃台服務人員),
Which means like be a schumck (【俚】蠢人). It's not I'm anti-social (反社會), I'm only anti-work (反工作).
Gloryosky! That's why I'm a jerk (【俚】蠢人)!
BABY JOHN: (As Female Social Worker) Eek (呀)!
Officer Krupke, you've done it again. This boy don't need a job, he needs a year in the pen (囚禁).
It ain't (is not) just a question of misunderstood; Deep down inside him, he's no good!
ACTION
I'm no good!
ALL
We're no good, we're no good! We're no earthly good (完全不好的), Like the best of us is no damn good!
DIESEL (As Judge)
The trouble is he's crazy.
A-RAB (As Psychiatrist)
The trouble is he drinks.
BABY JOHN (As Female Social Worker) The trouble is he's lazy.
DIESEL
The trouble is he stinks.
A-RAB
The trouble is he's growing.
BABY JOHN
The trouble is he's grown.
ALL
Krupke, we got troubles of our own!
Gee, Officer Krupke,
We're down on our knees, 'Cause no one wants a fellow with a social disease. Gee, Officer Krupke, What are we to do? Gee, Officer Krupke, Krup you!

I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty (才智的) and bright!
And I pity
Any girl who isn't me tonight.
I feel charming,
Oh, so charming
It's alarming (警告) how charming I feel!
And so pretty

Who can that attractive (吸引人的) girl be?
Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress, Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me!
I feel stunning (震撼的)
And entrancing (使人神魂顛倒的),
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I'm loved
By a pretty wonderful boy!
GIRLS
Have you met my good friend Maria, The craziest (最瘋狂的) girl on the block(in the city 在城市中)?
You'll know her the minute you see her, She's the one who is in an advanced (高等的) state of shock.
She thinks she's in love.
She thinks she's in Spain.
She isn't in love,
She's merely insane.
It must be the heat
Or some rare disease,
Or too much to eat
Or maybe it's fleas (跳蚤).
Keep away from her, Send for Chino!
This is not the
Maria we know!
Modest (謙卑的)and pure,
Polite and refined (雅致的),
Well-bred (教養好的)and mature (成熟的) And out of her mind (發瘋)!

There's a place for us,
Somewhere a place for us.
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere.
There's a time for us,
Some day a time for us,
Time together with time spare,
Time to learn, time to care, Some day!
Somewhere.
We'll find a new way of living, We'll find a way of forgiving (原諒) Somewhere . . .
There's a place for us,
A time and place for us.
Hold my hand and we're halfway (半路上) there.
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow,
Some day, Somewhere!
Boy, boy, crazy boy, Get cool, boy! Got a rocket in your pocket, Keep coolly cool, boy!
Don't get hot, 'Cause man, you got
Some high times ahead.
Take it slow and Daddy-O,
You can live it up （狂歡一場） and die in bed!
Boy, boy, crazy boy!
Stay loose（鎮定自若）, boy!
Breeze it, buzz it, easy does it.
Turn off the juice（把電關了）, boy!
Go man, go,
But not like a yo-yo (小流氓) schoolboy.
Just play it cool (沉著冷靜), boy, Real cool!
ANITA
A boy like that who'd kill your brother,
Forget that boy and find another,
One of your own kind,
Stick to (忠於) your own kind (同類; 同族群)!
A boy like that will give you sorrow,
You'll meet another boy tomorrow,
One of your own kind,
Stick to your own kind!
A boy who kills cannot love,
A boy who kills has no heart. And he's the boy who gets your love And gets your heart.
Very smart, Maria, very smart!
A boy like that wants one thing only,
And when he's done, he'll leave you lonely.
He'll murder (謀殺) your love; He murdered mine.
Just wait and see,
Just wait, Maria,
Just wait and see!
MARIA
Oh no, Anita, no, Anita, no!
It isn't true, not for me,
It's true for you, not for me. I hear your words
And in my head
I know they're smart,
But my heart, Anita,
But my heart
Knows they're wrong
And my heart
Is too strong,
For I belong To him alone, to him alone.
One thing I know:
I am his,
I don't care what he is. I don't know why it's so, I don't want to know.
ANITA
A boy like that, etc.
Very smart Maria, very smart!
MARIA
Oh no, Anita, no,
You should know better!
You were in love - or so you said.
You should know better . . .
I have a love, and it's all that I have.
Right or wrong, what else can I do?
I love him; I'm his, And everything he is I am, too.
I have a love, and it's all that I need,
Right or wrong, and he needs me, too.
I love him, we're one;
There's nothing to be done,
Not a thing I can do
But hold him, hold him forever,
Be with him now, tomorrow And all of my life!
BOTH
When love comes so strong, There is no right or wrong, Your love is your life.
