40 Dogs (Like Romeo and Juliet) Lyrics

Well if I spell it out, if I get it out, will you hear me when I tell you 'bout
What I have to say before it gets too late
It's not as easy as they 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 burning book
You're the color of a sideways look from an undercover cop in a comic book
You're the color of the 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 color 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 happened yet but will
I can tell you where we're gonna be when the whole world falls to the sea
We'll be living ever after happily
All the boys, taking you for granted, tell you what they want with 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 I won't walk, damnit
I'm reelin' 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 there before you know
We ain't got no time to waste, we've got too much love to taste
We're like Romeo and Juliet and 40 Dogs, cigarettes
We're like good times that haven't happened yet, but will
I can tell you where we're gonna be when the whole world falls to the sea
We'll be living ever after happily
Sometimes you remind me of a moonbeam or the ghost of a moonbeam
Down on the beach down by the coast
Slipping into the Nila 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
We'll turn the sky black into sky blue
We'll turn the closed shade into woo hoo
What I say is true, make a fire and burn a few
Make a fire and burn a few, we can do what we wanna do
We're like Romeo and Juliet and 40 Dogs, cigarettes
We're like good times that haven't happened yet, but will
I can tell you where we're gonna be when the whole world falls to the sea
We'll be living ever after happily
