Romeo & Juliet
This song contains depictions and allegories
To binary relationships between men and women which
Albeit presented in a reasonably satirical way
Can be perceived by members of some oppressed
And highly sensitive groups as outrageously offensive
Members of these oppressed communities might find it
Particularly disturbing that the song draws on the age-old
Relationship between Romeo and Juliet, instead of
Reimagining this rather traditional man-and-woman
Romantic dynamic in a modern quasi-progressive
Man-hating and woman-degrading fashion
You will not hear about a non-binary Romiette
And a tri-gender Julio who identifies as an asexual
Mario look-alike in this musical performance
Listener discretion is advised
You like to dream of something ideal
Sometimes believe it might come true
All lovers want a perfect bridal
Like Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe
You want to be as passionate as
Rhett and Scarlett
You spoony kids, romantic youths
That float in the clouds
She wants him to fight for her like
El Mariachi
(If she's straight enough)
He wants her sexy like Catherine Tramell
And both want to kiss like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
And make love like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
You like to fake a strong emotion
That you saw somewhere, but never had
You dramatize out of proportion
Until it drives your partner mad
You want to be as passionate as
Ralph and Maggie
Romantic whores and drama queens
Who float in the clouds
She wants him to be cool like
Gary Cooper
(Or maybe Tony Montana)
He wants her smart like Alice Abernathy
And both want to kiss like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
And make love like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
The truth is, your love is but a trivial affair
A pure reflection of what you dare
To be or not to be. The hardest part
Is knowing you can never love someone because of your empty heart
And day after day, and year after year
You wait for your perfect dream to appear
But it never comes true if you idealize
And keep on waiting for someone to come and open your eyes
Like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
And make love like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
And kiss like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
And die like
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
Lady Juliet
And Romeo
What are you dreaming of?
Jack Sparrow
Who are you dreaming of?
Casey Cantrell
What are you dreaming of?
Frank Martin
Who are you dreaming of?
Donna Quintano
What are you dreaming of?
John Constantine
Who are you dreaming of?
Angel-A
What are you dreaming of?
William Somerset
Who are you dreaming of?
