There's excitement on the streets tonight
As the Jets take on the Sharks
For the showdown of the
Fighters on your marks
There's fighting on the streets tonight
As the clash of man on man
Finds the blood-covered victorious
With a red knife in his hand
There’s panic on the streets tonight
As no one dares believe
How little this ‘fair rumble’
Has managed to achieve
There’s running on the streets tonight
By children fuelled by fear
No one wants to go back home
But they can’t stay out here
For there's sirens on the streets tonight
The blue flash lights up a face
Streaked with tears and blood and dirt
But not looking out of place
Because there was murder on the streets tonight
And death hovers above them all
Waiting for its next victim
Who everyone will see fall
