ROMEO AND JULIET
A love struck Romeo sang the streets a serenade
Layin' everybody low with a love song that he made
Flying to a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
He says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"
Juliet says, "Hey it's Romeo - you nearly gave me a heart attack!"
He's underneath the window, she's singin', "Hey la, my boyfriend's back!"
"You shouldn't come around here, singin' up to people like that"
"Anyway, whatcha gonna do about it?"
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet and you exploded in my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong -
Juliet
Come up on different streets and both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same
And I'll dream your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals
When you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say, "Oh Romeo, man, you know I used to have a scene with
him!"
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you ‘til I
die"
And there's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong -
Juliet
I can't do the talks like they talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'll do anything for you
I can't do anything ‘cept be in love with you
All I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and bad company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion
Juliet I know the stars are with you, anytime
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you ‘til I
die"
And there's a place, there's a place, an all the movie songs
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong -
Juliet
And a love struck Romeo singin'' the streets a serenade
Layin' everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
He says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"
"How about it?"
