Lyrics

Romeo looks down and sees Juliet
 ♪
 Nodding off in the alley with a lit cigarette
 
 Looks like her hair caught on fire for a sec
 ♪
 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
 ♪
 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
 
 Approaching her body with guns drawn, one said
 "Stay alert, be sure that the suspect is dead"
 
 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
 
 Looks like her hair caught on fire for a sec
 
 Street full of cop cars like somebody wrecked
