Romeo And Juliet - Dire Straits

Romeo And Juliet

Dire Straits


Lyrics:
A lovestruck Romeo sang the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"


Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window, she's singing, "Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"


"Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start

And I bet, and you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"


Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

When you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold

You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say "oh, Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him"

"Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die'
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"


I can't do the talk like they talk on the TV

And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and bad company

All I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion
Julie, I'd do the stars with you any time


"Juliet, when we made love you used to cry

You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die'

There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"

 And a lovestruck Romeo, he sang the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
He says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?
You and me, babe, how about it?"

Letra:
Un Romeo herido de amor canta su serenata por las calles
Dando la tabarra a todo el mundo con la canción de amor que ha escrito.
Encuentra una farola, sale un momento de la sombra
Y dice algo así como: “Tú y yo Nena, ¿qué hay de lo nuestro?”

Julieta dice, “Eh, si es Romeo, casi consigues que me dé un infarto!”
Él está bajo la ventana, y ella se pone a cantar “Oíd, mi novio ha vuelto.
No deberías venir por aquí despertando a esta gente con tus canciones…
De todos modos, qué piensas hacer al respecto?”

“Julieta, los dados estaban trucados desde el principio
y yo aposté y tú estallaste en mi corazón
y olvidé, olvidé la canción de la película.
¿Cuándo vas a darte cuenta de que simplemente no era el momento adecuado, Julieta?

Venimos de calles diferentes, las dos eran calles de vergüenza
ambas sucias, ambas pobres, pero nuestro sueño era el mismo
Y soñé tu sueño por ti, y ahora tu sueño se ha hecho realidad
¿Cómo puedes mirarme como si sólo fuera uno más de tus líos?

Cuando puedes dejarte engatusar por cadenas de plata tú puedes dejarte engatusar por cadenas de oro
Puedes dejarte engatusar por guapos desconocidos y por las promesas que te hagan.
Tú me lo prometiste todo, en lo bueno y en lo malo, dijiste, sí.
Y ahora vas diciendo “Oh Romeo, sí, ya sabes, tuve un rollo con él”

“Julieta, cuando hacíamos el amor solías llorar

Decías “Te quiero tanto como estrellas hay en el firmamento, te querré hasta que me muera”.
Hay un lugar para nosotros, ya conoces la canción de la película.
¿Cuándo vas a darte cuenta de que simplemente no era el momento adecuado, Julieta?

No sé dar discursos como los que salen por la tele
y no sé escribir una canción de amor en condiciones
No puedo hacer cualquier cosa, pero haría cualquier cosa por ti.
No sé hacer otra cosa que estar enamorado de ti.

Y lo único que hago es echarte de menos y echar de menos lo que teníamos.
Y lo único que hago es dejarme llevar por las malas compañías
Todo lo que hago es besarte desde las barras de Orión.
Julieta, iría contigo hasta las estrellas sin pensármelo!

Julieta, cuando hacíamos el amor solías llorar

Decías “Te quiero tanto como estrellas hay en el firmamento, te querré hasta que me muera”.
Hay un lugar para nosotros, ya conoces la canción de la película.
¿Cuándo vas a darte cuenta de que simplemente no era el momento adecuado, Julieta?

Y un Romeo herido de amor canta su serenata por las calles
Dando la tabarra a todo el mundo con la canción de amor que ha escrito.
Encuentra una farola adecuada, sale un momento de la sombra
dice algo así como: “Tú y yo Nena, ¿qué hay de lo nuestro?”
Tú y yo Nena ¿qué hay de lo nuestro?

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...
