| Doppelganger User Info... | TOM WAITS "Romeo Is Bleeding" romeo is bleeding but not so as you'd notice he's over on 18hh street as usual lookin' so hard against the hood of his car and puttin' out a cigarette in his hand and for all the pachucos at the pumps at romeros paint and body they all seein' how far they can spit well it was just another night but how they're huddled in the brake lights of a 58 belair and listenin' to how romeo killed a sherrif his knife and they all jump when they hear the sirens but romeo just laughs and says all the racket in the world ain't never gonna save that coppers ass he'll never see another summertime for gunnin' down my brother and leavin' him like a dog beneath a car without his knife and romeo says hey man gimme a cigarette and they all reach for their pack and frankie lights it for him and pats him on the back and throws bottle at a milk truck and as it breaks he grabs his nuts and they all know they could be just like romeo if they only had the guts but romeo is bleeding but nobody can tell and he sings along with the radio with a bullet in his chest and he combs back his fenders and they all agree its clear that every thing is cool now that romeos here but romeo is bleeding and he winces now and then and he leans against the car doors and feels the blood in his shoes and someones crying in the phone booth at the 5 points by thestore romeo starts his engine and wipes the blood off the door and he brodys through the signal with the radio full blast leavin' the boys there hikin' up there chinos and they all try to stand like romeo beneath the moon cut like a sickle and they're talkin' now in spanish about there hero but romeo is bleeding as he gives the man his ticket and he climbs to the balcony at the movies and he'll die without a wimper like every heros dream just an angel with a bullet and cagney on the screen - Sat, 13 Mar 2004 4:26pm | ||
| fangu User Info... | Thin Lizzy Romeo and the lonely girl They seemed to hit it off Till romeo told the lonely girl I must take my leave, my love It was these few words I overheard And thought, I should move in But before I could The lonely girl had fallen in love again Oh poor romeo Sitting out on his own-ee-o Oh poor romeo Romeo he had it rough The guy you�d like to burn But everything that romeo had You can bet it was well earned For all his good looks there were scars that he took And a lesson to be learned Never judge lovers by a good looking covers The story might be spurned Oh poor romeo Sitting out on his own-ee-o Oh poor romeo Romeo he like to put it around He was everybody�s friend But in the end even romeo found On no one could he depend For all his charms in someone else�s arms Lonely girl safely lay When the train pulled in it had to leave again And romeo pulled away Oh poor romeo Sitting all on his own-ee-o Oh poor romeo - Sun, 14 Mar 2004 8:06pm | ||
