WAND BETTY America Lyrics
America
Anita:
Puerto Rico, my heart`s devotion...
Let it sink back in the ocean!
Always the hurricanes blowing,
Always the population growing..
And the money owing,
And sunlight streaming,
And the natives steaming.
I like the island Manhattan--
Smoke on your pipe and put that in!

Sharks` Girls:
I like to be in America!
Okay by me in America!
Everything free in America!

Bernardo:
For a small fee in America.

Anita:
Buying on credit is so nice.

Bernardo:
One look at us and they charge twice!

A Shark Girl:
I have my own washing machine.

A Shark:
What will you have got to keep clean?

Girls:
Skyscrapers bloom in America,
Cadillac zoom in America,
Industry boom in America!

Boys:
Twelve in a room in America.

Anita:
Lots of new housing with more space.

Bernardo:
Lots of doors slamming in our face.

Anita:
I`ll get a terrace apartment!

Bernardo:
Better get rid of your accent!

Anita:
Life can be bright in America.

Boys:
If you can fight in America.

Girls:
Life is all right in America.

Boys:
If you are white in America!

Girls:
Here you are free and you have pride!

Boys:
Long as you stay on your own side.

Girls:
Free to be anything you choose.

Boys:
Free to wait tables and shine shoes.

Bernardo:
Everywhere crime in America,
Organized crime in America,
Terrible time in America..

Anita:
You forget I`m in America.

Bernardo:
I think I go back to San Juan.

Anita:
I know a boat you can get on!

Bernardo:
Everyone there will give big cheer!

Anita:
Everyone there will have moved here
