Romeo looks down and sees Juliet
Nodding off in the alley with a lit cigarette
ย
Looks like her hair caught on fire for a sec
ย
Streets full of cop cars like somebody wrecked
Juliet looks up and sees Romeo
In her camouflage pants and dirty poncho
Extending her arm, she flips him the bird
Blows him a kiss, and winks as she turns
ย
Then like the sound of thundering clouds on the mountain
Bullets and shells where Juliet fell behind the hotel in the garbage
Romeo's tears, they fell where he stood
Her body went limp, bricks mixed with her blood
The detective looked up and saw Romeo
He just nodded his head like to tell him to go
ย
Approaching her body with guns drawn, one said
"Stay alert, be sure that the suspect is dead"
ย
When they got close, she said up and said
"Fuck you", then pulled the pin on the grenades from the pin
Then like the sound of thundering clouds on the mountain side
Fire's ablaze where Juliet laid behind the hotel in the garbage pile
Since then nobody's seen Romeo
Found the diamond bags empty on a pier by the boats
Put your ear to the wind and you'll hear the sound
In Puerto Morelos where he settled down
Louder than horses stampeding down off the mountainside
Juliet's ghost roaming the course for Romeo Valentine
Romeo looks down and sees Juliet
Nodding off in the alley with a lit cigarette
ย
Looks like her hair caught on fire for a sec
Street full of cop cars like somebody wrecked
