Now you all better dig this and dig it good. No matter who or what is eatin' you, man, you show it and you are dead. You are cuttin' a hole in yourselves for them to stick in a red hot umbrella and open it. Wide. Man, you wanna get past the cops when they start askin' you about tonight? You wanna live in this lousy world? You play it cool.

Anita A boy like that who'd kill your brother;
Forget that boy and find another.
One of your own kind, stick to your own kind.
A boy like that will give you sorrow;
You'll meet another boy tomorrow. Maria When I look at Chino, nothing happens. Anita Well, what do you expect to happen? Maria I don't know. Something. What happens when you look at Bernardo? Anita It's when I don't look that it happens. Maria My brother is a silly watchdog. Bernardo Ah, my sister is a precious jewel. Anita What am I, cut glass?
