Romeo And Juliet

The Killers The Killers

A love struck Romeo sings the streets a serenade,
Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made
Finds a street light, steps out of the shade
Says something like "You and me, babe, how about it?"

Juliet says "Hey, it's Romeo! you nearly gave me a heartattack"
He's underneath the window, she's singing "Hey now, myboyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that"
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?

Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, then you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget, the movie song
When you're gonna realize that it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed 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, yeah, you know I used to have ascene with him"

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
I said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you until I die"
And there's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you're 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 except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat, and bad company
And all I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I'd do the stars with you, anytime

Ah Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
I said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you until I die"
And there's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you're gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

And a love struck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient street light, steps out of the shade
Says something like "you and me, babe, how about it?"
"You and me babe, how about it?"
