ANITA 
boy like that who'd kill your brother, 
Forget that boy and find another, 
One of your own kind, 
Stick to your own kind! 

boy like that will give you sorrow, 
You'll meet another boy tomorrow, 
One of your own kind, 
Stick to your own kind! 

boy who kills cannot love, 
boy who kills has no heart. 
And he's the boy who gets your love 
And gets your heart. 
Very smart, Maria, very smart! 

boy like that wants one thing only, 
And when he's done, he'll leave you lonely. 
He'll murder 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 [bad word]  not for me, 
It's [bad word] 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 
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 [bad word] so strong, 
There is no right or wrong, 
Your love is your life.
