Romeos? I Hear They Died In The 50's
Romeo, Romeo, where for art thee Romeos?
I hear they all died after 1950
Oh yes Romance is very much so dead
Died along with Romeo in fact
A lovely run it did have, shame to see it go
Emptiness is victorious when we fail to act
But then what about the Juliette’s
Where’d the pretty dresses and smiles go?
Exchanged for an attitude and a punch
Wrapped, alas, without even a bow
So let us all watch the television shows
And see all the emotions we cannot show
Reminisce about a time
We f*cked up so very long ago
