40 Dogs (Like Romeo and Juliet)

Well, if I spell it out, if I yell it out

Will you hear me when I tell you about?

What I have to say before it gets too late

It's not as easy, as I said it would be

But there's something right about you and me

Something right about you and me

Well, you're the color of a burnt rug

You're the color of a sideways look

From an undercover cop in a comic book

You're the color of a storm in June

You're the color of the moon

You're the color of the night, that's right

Color of a fight, you move me

You're the color of the colored part

Of the Wizard of Oz movie

We're like Romeo and Juliet

We're like 40 dogs, cigarettes

We're like good times that haven't happen yet, but will

I can tell you where we're gonna be

When the whole world falls into the sea

We'll be living ever after happily

All the boys taking you for granted

Tell you what they want with their eyes all slanted

I don't like the way they look at you

I don't like the way they talk too

I don't like the way they talk to you

I wouldn't let them talk to you like that

Put 'em up high, reach for the ceiling

Tell them that I'ma walk, damn it, I'm real

It ain't no crime, it's just dreams we're stealing

Anything to get more of this feeling

You take the high and I'll take the low

We'll get their before you know

We ain't got no time to waste

We got too much life to taste

We're like Romeo and Juliet

We're like 40 dogs, cigarettes

Well, good times that haven't happen yet, but will

I can tell you where we're gonna be

When the whole world falls into the sea

We'll be living ever after happily

Sometimes you remind me of a moonbeam

Or the ghost of a moonbeam out on the beach

Down by the coast, slipping through the air

Like the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

Come out tonight, come out with me, baby

We'll throw the careful into the crazy

Turn the sky black into a sky blue

Turn the color shade into a whoo-whoo!

What I say is true, make fire gotta burn a fuel

Make fire gotta burn a fuel

We can do what we want to do

We're like Romeo and Juliet, 40 dogs, cigarettes

Well, good times that haven't happened yet, but will

I can tell you where we're gonna be

When the whole world falls into the sea

We'll be living ever after happily
