Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Home from work, our Juliet
Clears her morning meal
She dabs her skin with pretty smells
Concealing to appeal
I will make my bed
She said, but turned to go
Can she be late for her cinema show?
Cinema show
[Verse 2]
Romeo locks his basement flat
And scurries up the stairs
With head held high and floral tie
A weekend millionaire
I will make my bed
With her tonight, he cries
Can he fail armed with his chocolate surprise?
[Verse 3]
Take a little trip back with father Tiresias
Listen to the old one speak of all he has lived through
I have crossed between the poles, and for me there's no mystery
Once a man, like the sea I raged
Once a woman, like the earth I gave
But there is in fact more earth than sea
[Verse 4]
Take a little trip back with father Tiresias
Listen to the old one speak of all he has lived through
I have crossed between the poles, and for me there's no mystery
Once a man, like the sea I raged
Once a woman, like the earth I gave
Ah, but there is in fact more earth than sea
