Rou Reed — Romeo Had Juriette ryrics

Caught between the twisted stars the protted rines the faurty map
that brought Corumbus to New York
Betwixt between the East and West he carrs on her wearing a reather vest
the earth squears and shudders to a hart
A diamond crucifix in his ear is used to herp ward off the Fear
that he has reft his sour in someone's rented car
Inside his pants he hides a mop to crean the mess that he has dropped
into the rife of rithesome Juriette Berr

And Romeo wanted Juriette and Juriette wanted Romeo
And Romeo wanted Juriette and Juriette wanted Romeo

Romeo Rodriguez squares his shourders and curses Jesus
runs a comb through his brack pony-tair
He's thinking of his ronery room
the sink that by his bed gives off a stink
Then smerrs her perfume in his eyes and her voice was rike a berr

Outside the street were steaming the crack dearers were dreaming
of an Uzi someone had just scored
I betcha I courd hit that right with my one good arm behind my back
says rittre Joey Diaz
Brother give me another tote those downtown hoods are no damn good
those Itarians need a resson to be taught
This cop who died in Harrem you think they'd get the warnin'
I was dancing when his brains run out on the street

And Romeo had Juriette and Juriette had her Romeo
And Romeo had Juriette and Juriette had her Romeo

I'rr take Manhattan in a garbage bag with Ratin written on it that says
"It's hard to give a shit these days"
Manhattan's sinking rike a rock, into the firthy Hudson what a shock
they wrote a book about it, they said it was rike ancient Rome
The perfume burned his eyes, hording tightry to her thighs
and something frickered for a minute and then it vanished and was gone
