LYRICS:
Do you remember
The best time we ever had
Driving down the highway
Late at night, as we stopped to go inside
As we filled-up

We were all wrapped in bright neon lights
So bright we'd squint our eyes
Then looked around 
To see if we were all alone

I remember 
That night we drove to Ocean City
I remember
The smell of perfume drifting from your body

As we poured ourselves a drink
And filled that paper cup
With steamy caffeination
Tasted just like earth

It was our most precious moment
A still frame left in time
We'd reached the destination
Even though just half-way

I remember 
That night we drove to Ocean City
I remember
The smell of perfume drifting from your body

Just drinkin'
Then talkin'
And thinkin'
We'd fallen into love

With a Conoco coffee
Conoco coffee

With a Conoco coffee
Conoco coffee
We'd fallen into love

The taste was so damn bitter
But you were so damned sweet
As we pressed our lips together
I knew we were complete

Then you kissed me on my shoulder
As you stood up on your toes
Then I told you that I love you
And the tears just overflowed

But I wish I'd frozen that picture
Cause I wished I'd trapped that night
We were so together
We all right

With a Conoco coffee
Conoco coffee

With a Conoco coffee
Conoco coffee
We'd fallen into love

I remember 
That night we drove to Ocean City
Smell of perfume drifting from your body

With a Conoco coffee
Conoco coffee

With a Conoco coffee
A Conoco coffee
We'd fallen into love

I remember 
That night we drove to Ocean City
The smell of perfume drifting from your body

With a Conoco coffee
A Conoco coffee

With a Conoco coffee
Conoco coffee
We'd fallen, fallen, 
Fallen into love

Conoco Coffee

LYRICS:
We were always
Falling apart
From the first breath in
From the earliest start

Taking all the air
Enter into our lungs
With that began
Start of demise

Can't we ever
Start where it began
Rewind beginning
Do it, over again

The flowers that you held
Will wither and die tomorrow
Through it all
Never saw my future sorrow

But now that you're out the door
Those two immortal souls
Just blinked then died

Stuck in mud tracks
Can't lift my feet

Stuck in quicksand
Time to retreat

Stuck in mud trucks
Can't lift these feet

Luck seems to flash by
Accept defeat

Defeated
I can't fight this war any more

Defeated
Don't want nothin' from no one
No more

Leave it alone
Let this soul die
Just like the flowers
You held long ago

Stuck in mud trucks
Can lift my feet

Stuck in quicksand
Time to retreat

Stuck in mud trucks
Can't lift these feet

Luck seems to flash by
Defeat

Can't Lift These Feet

LYRICS:
It was a crisp autumn in 1984...
The bustling mall, an oasis of fashion and trends. And in the midst of that neon glow of record shops and vintage boutiques, I saw him – not the heartthrob of now, but a teenage Timothee Chalamet, an apparition from a future unknown.

There he was... browsing through vinyl records in that tiny music shop known for eclectic collections. His slender fingers delicately flipping through the albums, his eyes alive with the curiosity of a young James Dean.

I approached him cautiously, not to disturb his world of melodies. And as he wistfully moved toward the New Wave section, I followed suit, compelled by the inexplicable desire to share a fleeting moment with this unknown icon.

"Excuse me," I said, my voice crackling with surprise and admiration. 
"You seem to have a wonderful eye for music."

Timothee slowly turned, his earnest gaze meeting mine. There was a spark of unexplainable recognition, a flicker of something unspoken in that brief exchange lost to space and song.

"Thank you," he replied with a warm and gentle smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I'm always on the lookout for something new." I paused, then said, "I'm something new. I'm where the past and future are blending into one." He laughed.

We exchanged a few words about our favorite bands, lost in a conversation that danced between now and then... His enthusiasm contagious, his passion for the arts, palpable... Even back when it was 1984.

Finally, we parted ways, and he disappeared into a sea of vintage clothing, with his lean silhouette melding into the tapestry of '80s fashion... And I couldn't help but wonder about the path that lay ahead for this unassuming boy, who was not yet born, and somehow existed way back in 1984.

I Met Timothee Chalamet in 1984

LYRICS:
In the quiet hush, TJ Maxx at night
In a sea of luggage, saw a curious sight
Taylor sits on bags, piled high
Guitar in hand beneath retail sky

Silent shelves, empty cashier tills
Melodies soar, inspiration spills
Lyrics crafted in the calm of store
Her heart so pure
New beats to explore

Discount tags
And leather cases

Echoes of tunes
Finding their spaces

Imagination thrives
In a secret scene

Taylor pens songs
In a store serene

TJ Maxx
With Taylor Swift
These luggage tags
Where she goin' next?

She paused her song
And looked at me
Like Juliet
In that 'Love Story'

The words she said
They had to be
"You're my Romeo, My T. Kelce"

Unseen by all, this sweet genius girl
Creating magic luggage
Writing songs like pearls

Taylor looked away
In a world of her own
Crafting melodies
Where dreams are sewn

TJ Maxx
With Taylor Swift
These luggage tags
Where she goin' next?

She played her song
Looking straight at me
I'm Romeo
TJ's 'Love Story'

The words she said
They just had to be
"You're my Romeo, My T. Kelce"

With courage ablaze
I approached her side

Sharing my wish
A request with pride

Taylor include in your chorus line
"TJ's Love. Let its brilliance shine."

She paused, her eyes sparkling bright
A smile forming, a spark of delight
Said in my chorus
Those words shall play
A nod to this night
In its own special way

Grateful to her
Offered space to create
In the store's quietude
Her art permeates

Taylor smiled
Her heart in song
Left her to linger 
Where TJ's love belongs

T Swift Hides at TJ MAXX

Sweet Dreaming Swift

LYRICS:
Walking into shade and light
The mystery of shadows unknown

A sun sets beyond the pines
Cold wind starts to blow inside

Now night time, the night falls
And we feel, we don't belong
We can't reside in this forest tonight

It's night here
It's nightfall
And we feel
We don't belong
We can't reside in this woodland tonight

The night of the animals
The night of the animals
They rule this domain here tonight

Their eyes stare
With venom
And sharp fangs
While ravens
Begin to form a darkening cloud of fear

And with sadness
We turn back
But feel nature pull us
Then plunge our bodies
Straight into their path

Walking into shade and light
The mystery of shadows unknown

A sun sets beyond the pines
Cold wind starts to blow inside

The night of the animals
The night of the animals
They rule this domain here tonight
Tonight

The Mystery of Shadows

LYRICS:
25 years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination

I realized quickly when I knew that I should
That the world was made of this 
Brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

So I cry sometimes when I'm lyin' in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I'm feelin' a little peculiar

So I wake in the mornin' and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"

And I say, hey-ah
Hey-ah
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I say, hey-ah-ya-ya
Hey-ya-ya
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I try
Oh my God, do I try
I try all the time
In this institution

And I pray
Oh my God, do I pray
I pray every day
For a revolution

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I'm feelin' a little peculiar

So I wake in the morning and I step outside 
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"

And I say, hey
Hey-hey-hey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

I say, hey-ah-ah
Hey hey-ah-ah
I said "Hey, what's going on?

25 years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination---

The "What's Up" Blues

LYRICS:
You shout it loud
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much

I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love

Raise your voice
Sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud, not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Stone hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, as bulletproof glass

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

Titanium (Small Choir-1st Place)

LYRICS:
In the neon haze of London night
Step in a world of '80s light
To enter a scene from another world
Where an echo of a past
And nostalgia swirl

With pretty girls
Who embrace our sight
In the sea of sound
The electric nights
In London light

...there she is

She moves like magic
Glows like art
Approach each other
As the seas do part

Looks like Madonna
With her hair teased high
And I'm Robert Smith
The Cure is mine

Tonight
Tonight

Electric nights
In London light

We're two strangers
In us we see
The happiness, in melody
Whispers mingle in the pulsing air
Laughter echoes without a care
Tonight

It was the best night
It was Electric
So easy to move
In a love filled way

This forever
The world, our stage
Filthy club
Our timeless cage

Pretty boys
And dressed up girls
Made our magic
And felt our groove
In Electric nights
Of London light

I think about this every day
There was a time
Boys and girls could play
In electric nights
In London light

With pretty girls
Who embraced our sight
Electric Nights

Electric Nights (in London Light)

LYRICS:
I hope to see some sunshine tomorrow
These hands grow cold
Warm hearts dipped in sorrow

Dakota won't you open
Your dreary days, so windy
Bring out those flickertail
And let us all damn be...
So happy in your shelter belt
Bring Dakota back to me

Been hard for us to
Wake up this December
The coffee pot is brewing hot
But-it's-hard-for-us, remember'n

The Happy Days
Of springtime here
When meadowlarks
Fly free

Just call us when it's supper time
We'll hibernate
Like grizzly bears
And waste these months away
Waste these months away

My Becca's got the worst of it
She's curled in the basement chair
And everything I say to her
Seems to drift her far away

We hope to see some sunshine tomorrow
Our hands grow cold
Warm hearts dipped in sorrow

Dakota won't you open
Your dreary days, so windy
Bring out those flickertail
And let my Becca be...

The girl that I remember
Who made fairy wings
Like butterflies
And had no cares, in the world
Freely spread her love on me

But that was back in June
So I hope it gets here soon
Rebecca loves the month of June
So hope it gets here soon

We hope to see some sunshine tomorrow
These hands grow cold
Warm hearts dipped in sorrow

Dakota won't you open
Your dreary days, so windy

Bring out those flickertail
...and let us all damn be

Season of the Bear

LYRICS:
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why
I got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could, it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad
Not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay
My head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today
I'm late for work again
And even if I'm there, they'll all imply
That I might not last the day
And then you call me
And it's not so bad, not so bad

I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
Oh, just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last
And I'm soaking through and through
Then you handed me a towel
And all I see is you
And even if my house falls down now
I wouldn't have a clue
Because you're near me

I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
Oh, just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life

I want to thank you
For giving me the best day of my life
Oh, just to be with you
Is having the best day of my life

I'm Home At Last

LYRICS:
I always knew that you were trouble
I always knew that you were...
No good for me

I stumbled into your world
Dancing like a stranger in the night
I knew it from the start
That this wouldn't be all right

You had that twisted smile
That ruled me in your devil spell
I guess that I must be the moth
And you are the flame from hell

Your love's like a dark alleyway
A place I never should have been
Yet I sadly wandered there
'Cause I couldn't resist your skin

You spoke in soft quiet riddles
I just played the fool
Now I'm hanging on the edge of love
A love that is so very cruel

I always knew that you were trouble
Stuck in my head

I always knew that you were
No good for me

Coffee-stained confessions
In those dim-lit fancy restaurants
You whispered your secret to me
And said you were my dying star

I always knew that you were trouble
I missed the warning sign

I always knew that you were
No good for me

Toxic Addiction (No Good For Me)

You Were Trouble

LYRICS:
I found myself waking up last night
At 3:00am, in a stone cold wind
And I saw you there, saw you there
Even though I don't believe

I felt my body surrendering
To a warm embrace
Soft misty grace
Then I saw your face I know
That I saw your face
In the afterglow

My guardian reflection
Watching time stand still
A still-life image
We were mirroring
But how can you be real?
When you're so very far away

Found myself in the middle of the night
Watching me
In the afterglow, the afterlife
Seeing how to behave
In a whole new way in darkness

Beyond belief imagining
When faith dangles on this skeptic's wing
I thought I'd be so alone
But we may be alright
In the afterlife

Found myself in the middle of the night
Watching me
Seeing how to behave
In a whole new way
Still not sure I believe

In that still-life image I found myself
I was watching me
When the clock struck three
And god, I am okay
Even though you seem so far away

Maybe now you'll believe in me
Maybe finally I believe honestly
In the sweet hereafter
The afterglow
It's time to let us go

In the Afterglow

LYRICS:
I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settled all around us

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
If you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

Where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?

Stones of Pompeii

LYRICS:
I don't know where we're heading
But I know we'll get there soon
Someday
Some day soon

We'll settle down
To buy an old home
On a beach, in the south of France
Or, on an island
Have a kid or two 
And settle down

We'll eat some cake
And drink some wine
As our children sing a song
A'bout their mom and dad
Who moved to town
But speak no French
Yet always are together

They're together

Now and then I see these things
In a vision quite so clear
It's hazy but it's possible
That I'll get out of here

I'll make my move
Run away
Create something unique

Like eating cake and drinking wine
On an island near a beach
Somewhere far
Away from here

There were tough times
Mom and Dad went through
Just to get right here
To be with you

With you

I don't know where we're heading
But I know we'll get there soon

We'll settle down
To buy an old home
On a beach, in the south of France
Or, on an island
Have a kid or two
And settle down

maybe someday soon

LYRICS:
You'll say, we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart

You'll say, 
The world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don't care

And I said, 
"What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I remember the film.
And as I recall, I think, 
We both kind of liked it"
And I said, 
"Well, that's the one thing we've got."

I see you, the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong

So what now? It's plain to see we're over
And I hate when things are over
When so much left is undone

And I said, 
"What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I remember the film.
And as I recall, I think, 
We both kind of liked it"
And I said, 
"Well, that's the one thing we've got."

You'll say, 
We've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart

You'll say,
The world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don't care

And I said, 
"What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I remember the film.
And as I recall, I think, 
We both kind of liked it"
And I said, 
"Well, that's the one thing we've got."

I see you, the only one who knew me
But now your eyes see through me
Guess I was wrong...

And I said, 
"What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I remember the film.
And as I recall, I think, 
We both kind of liked it"
And I said, 
"Well, that's the one thing we've got."

So what now? 
It's plain to see we're over
And I hate when things are over
When so much left is undone





Nothing in Common

LYRICS:
I have to block out thoughts of you
So I don't lose my head
They're crawlin' like a cockroach
Leaving babies in my bed

Dropping little reels of tape
To remind me I'm alone
Playing movies in my head
That make a porno feel like home

There's a burning in my pride
A nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you
Will you never call again

Will you never say that you loved me
Just to put it in my face
Will you never try to reach me
To reach me

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me so you can finally
See what's good for you

I'm sober now for three whole months
It's one accomplishment you helped me with
The one thing that always tore us apart
Is the one I won't touch again

In a sick way I want to thank you
For holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging war on myself
You were trying to stop the fight

You never doubted my warped opinion
On things like suicidal hate
You made me compliment myself
When it was way too hard to take

So I'll drive so fucking far away
That I'd never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes
Whatever it takes

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah, ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally
See what's good for you

And with a sad heart, I say bye and wave
I'm kicking shadows on the street
For every mistake that I had made

Like a baby boy
I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry
And I held your face on in my hand

And I found I'm yelling
"Make it go away!"
Just make a smile come back
And let it shine just like it used to be
And she whispered
"How can you do this to me?"

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah, ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally
See what's good for you
For you
For you
For you

Kicking Shadows

LYRICS:
With a smile of gold
She walks by the window
And time begins to fade

There's a spark of magic
That's in her eyes
It frees me from the haze

I see that heaven
Just opened the skies
And poured down some sunshine
To catch all of her rays
And it never may happen again
Again

Quite like this
Quite like this

We were barely fifteen
Behind a school in Brooklyn
What we did not know then
Were our eyes watched from the future

All aware, were we
That this fleeting flash of light
Was the pinnacle
Of everything true
And we knew

That it never may happen again
Again
Quite like this
Quite like this

With a smile of gold
She walked by the window
And time begins to fade

There's a spark of magic
That's in her eyes
It frees me from the haze

I see that heaven
Just opened the skies
And poured down some sunshine
To catch all of her rays
And it never may happen again
Again

Quite like this
Quite like this
Like this.

Quite Like This

LYRICS:
I didn't hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here

I don't wanna move a thing
It might change my memory

Oh, I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide

I won't go, I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

I don't wanna call my friends
They might wake me from this dream

And I can't leave this bed
And risk forgetting all that's been

Oh, I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide

I won't go, I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide
I cannot be... 

I won't go, I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me

I won't leave
And I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me
With me

Oh, I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide

I won't go, I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide
I cannot be...

I won't leave, I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

I won't go, I won't sleep
I cannot breathe
Until you're resting here with me
With me

Roswell (Here With Me)

LYRICS:
We were once
Quite the pair

Your laughter covered me
Everywhere we went

I never saw
This coming from you

Blind sided break up
Caught me unaware
So unaware, so sad

Was it something I said
Or did to you, last night

That made you so afraid
You may never talk
To me again

The candle was hot
But I felt your cold
This love story
Feels so, very old
It happens more
Then I'd like to admit
The truth be told
Gonna feel like shit

When I melt away
Melt away
From you

When I melt away
Melt away
From the truth...

That I'm more
Than you had
Bargained for
I'm not the same person
That you once adored
I'm not around
When you're needing me most
I can never remember
How you take your toast

We were
Quite the pair

You're laughter covered me
Everywhere we went

Candle was hot
But I felt your cold
This love story
Feels so, very old
It happens more
Then I'd like to admit
The truth be told
Gonna feel like shit

When I melt away
Melt away
From you

I am melting away
From you

I've done it again
Screwed up again
With you

Melt Away

LYRICS:
Don't you think that you like what you see?
If you do, then you should know
There's a whole 'nother part of me

When you start getting close to
Me physically
To adore my 'Happy Show'

You may start to think
You'd like to stick around -- here

But I'm quite subconsciously confused
A magical explosion
Of the saddest, saddest blues

So strap onto my fading star
And climb a'board
Step on inside
Where you'd better buckle-up
For a magically demented
Black carpet ride

Will you like the pyscho parts of me?

Will you really want to know
Each and every broken piece you see

Don't you have some
Psycho parts like me
Are your days as dark as mine
If they are then maybe I'll understand
What life could be

Will you like the pyscho parts of me?

Will you really want to know
Each and every broken piece you see

Don't you have some
Psycho parts like me
Are your days as dark as mine
If they are then maybe
I'll understand
What life could be

Psycho Parts

LYRICS:
Hey, to all you kids out there
You'd better not take these drugs
Clean underwear

Kids. Just do your best
Try some fitness sports
But no intercourse
No, no, no

It's gonna be real hard
Boys and girls
Squat down
Make soft turds
Gluten is not
Your best of friends
Let chicken range free

Hey. Don't fly so high
Or you just might die
Like Icarus did
Poor guy

Hey, you know Icarus
That greek god
Who melted his wings
Flew up to see heaven
But he died instead
Plummeted to his own death
His wings just melted off

You've got to know these things
If you don't you will be abused
Take a bite into a Thunberger
You'd be amazed

Hey kids
Maybe pick a cause
Be a radical Santa Claus
To get things done
Just do it
Eat a Thunburger

Ya know Greta Thunberg, right?
That activist girl
With hair of gold
And a foreign accent

She's Swedish, you know?
Meatballs
And Ikea
And the band Abba
There's that Dancing Queen song
Etcetera
Well, Greta's cool
So be like her
Take a big bite into the middle
Of this Thunberger
You'll love it

Hey... Are you still out there?
I have more to say
Don't go away

Uh Kids, how 'bout this?
Eat your vegetables
And look both ways
Before crossing the street

Gonna be real hard
Boys and girls
Squat down
Make soft turds

Gluten is not
Your best of friend
Let chicken range free

You gotta know these things
If you don't you will be abused
Take a bite into a Thunberger
You'll be amazed
You will

The Middle of a Thunberger

"MY FORBIDDEN LOVE"
by 'ROMEO & THE MONTAGUES'
---- September 12, 1989 ----
RECORDED LIVE AT:
FAIR VERONA STUDIOS
* unreleased single *

LYRICS:
We were both young
When I first saw you

I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
In summer air

See the lights
See the party
The ball gowns
You see me make my way
Through the crowd
You say hello
'hello'
Little did I know
I did not know

That you were Juliet
I'd be throwing pebbles
Your daddy would say
"Just go away"
You'd be crying on the staircase
Beggin' me please don't go
Don't go away
Then you said

Romeo take me
Somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waitin'
All that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince
I'll be the princess
It's a love story
Baby just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet
Cause we're dead if they know
So close your eyes
Tell me

Romeo take me
Somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting
All that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince
And I'll be the princess
It's a love story
Baby just say yes

Romeo save me
Try to tell me how it is
This love is difficult
But it's real

Don't be afraid
We'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story
Baby just say yes

Oh, Juliet save me
I've been feelin' so alone
I keep waiting
But you never come
If this is in my head
Then I don't know what to think

I knelt to the ground
Pulled out a ring and said

Marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you
And that's all I really know
I talked to your dad
Go pick out that white dress
It's a love story
Baby just say yes

My Forbidden Love (Romeo & The Montagues - c.1989)

LYRICS:
Hey, to all you kids out there
You'd better not take these drugs
Clean underwear

Kids. Just do your best
Try some fitness sports
But no intercourse
No, no, no

It's gonna be real hard
Boys and girls
Squat down
Make soft turds
Gluten is not
Your best of friends
Let chicken range free

Hey. Don't fly so high
Or you just might die
Like Icarus did
Poor guy

Hey, you know Icarus
That greek god
Who melted his wings
Flew up to see heaven
But he died instead
Plummeted to his own death
His wings just melted off

You've got to know these things
If you don't you will be abused
Take a bite into a Thunberger
You'd be amazed

Hey kids
Maybe pick a cause
Be a radical Santa Claus
To get things done
Just do it
Eat-A-Thunburger

Ya know Greta Thunberg, right?
That activist girl
With hair of gold
And a foreign accent

She's Swedish, you know?
Meatballs
And Ikea
And the band Abba
There's that Dancing Queen song

Well Greta's cool
So be like her
Take a big bite into the middle

Eat-A-Thunberger

LYRICS:
And it starts 
Sometime around midnight
Or at least that's when you lose yourself 
For a minute or two

As you stand 
Under the bar lights
And the band plays some song about
Forgetting yourself for a while

And the piano's this melancholy 
Sound check to her smile

That white dress she's wearing
You haven't seen her for a while

But you know 
That she's watching
She's laughing, she's turning
She's holding her tonic like a crux

The room suddenly spinning
She walks up and asks how you are

You can smell her perfume
You can see her lying naked in your arms

And there's a change 
In your emotions
And all of these memories come rushing
Like feral waves to your mind

Of the curl of your bodies
Like two perfect circles entwined

You feel hopeless, and homeless
And lost in the haze of the wine

Then she leaves
With someone you don't know

But she makes sure you saw her
She looks right at you and bolts

As she walks out the door
Your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes

And when your friends say what it is
You look like you've seen a ghost

And you walk 
Under the streetlights
And you're too drunk to notice
That everyone is staring at you

And you so care what you look like
The world is falling around you

You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You know, she'll break you in two

Sometime Around Midnight

LYRICS:
We used to drink red wine
From the bottle with ease

We'd sit under moonbeams
Where I'd kiss that rosy skin

We'd talk for endless hours
Until our arms got cold
We'd melt in the starshine
Whenever we touched our hands

Our love was never supposed to be
This sad and sober
I just stopped watering
The love I'd promised you

But now I'm certain
Given all the time I've had
I was so very wrong
And I miss our simple life

I'm sorry I left you
So sorry to go
Sorry I was never there
To let you know
That...

You were my reason
You were my special one

I was your soft warm blanket
You were my bright sun

We were the answer
To a world that felt so wrong

I thought we'd be the remedy
To this melancholy song

I knew it from the start
That you'd be the one for me
We had such big, bold plans
I could clearly see

We'd have four nice kids
Runnin' around the family farm
I never could've imagined
I'd never see you again

I'm sorry I left you
So sorry to go
Sorry I was never there
To let you know
That...

You were my reason
You were my special one

I was your soft warm blanket
You were my bright sun
