Romeo Had Juliette (LP Version)歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Lou Reed
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Lou Reed
[00:03.63]Caught between the twisted stars
[00:21.96]The plotted lines the faulty map
[00:24.25]That brought Columbus to New York
[00:27.20]
[00:27.60]Betwixt between the East and West
[00:29.24]He calls on her wearing a leather vest
[00:31.23]The earth squeals and shudders to a halt
[00:33.77]
[00:34.61]A diamond crucifix in his ear
[00:36.81]Is used to help ward off the fear
[00:38.61]That he has left his soul in someone's rented car
[00:42.20]
[00:42.65]Inside his pants he hides a mop
[00:43.99]To clean the mess that he has dropped
[00:45.98]Into the life of lithesome Juliette Bell
[00:48.67]
[00:49.07]And Romeo wanted Juliette
[00:51.36]And Juliette wanted Romeo
[00:55.20]And Romeo wanted Juliette
[00:58.83]And Juliette wanted Romeo
[01:02.42]
[01:03.12]Romeo Rodriguez squares
[01:06.45]His shoulders and curses Jesus
[01:07.90]Runs a comb through his black pony-tail
[01:10.99]
[01:11.39]He's thinking of his lonely room
[01:12.93]The sink that by his bed gives off a stink
[01:15.48]Then smells her perfume in his eyes
[01:18.22]And her voice was like a bell
[01:20.56]
[01:21.15]Outside the streets were steaming
[01:34.85]The crack dealers were dreaming
[01:36.49]Of an Uzi someone had just scored
[01:38.68]
[01:39.13]I betcha I could hit that light
[01:42.36]With my one good arm behind my back
[01:44.45]Says little Joey Diaz
[01:46.40]
[01:46.94]Brother give me another tote
[01:49.74]Those downtown hoods are no damn good
[01:52.28]Those Italians need a lesson to be taught
[01:54.23]
[01:54.83]This cop who died in Harlem
[01:56.92]You think they'd get the warnin'
[01:58.62]I was dancing when I saw his brains run out on the street
[02:01.31]
[02:01.75]And Romeo had Juliette
[02:05.04]And Juliette had her Romeo
[02:08.13]And Romeo had Juliette
[02:11.82]And Juliette had her Romeo
[02:15.70]
[02:16.44]I'll take Manhattan in a garbage bag
[02:18.98]With Latin written on it that says
[02:20.62]"It's hard to give a **** these days"
[02:22.67]
[02:23.31]Manhattan's sinking like a rock
[02:25.85]Into the filthy Hudson what a shock
[02:28.59]They wrote a book about it
[02:29.88]They said it was like ancient Rome
[02:32.12]
[02:32.63]The perfume burned his eyes
[02:35.12]Holding tightly to her thighs
[02:37.70]And something flickered for a minute
[02:41.29]And then it vanished and was gone
