Cupid's Dead Lyrics


You read the papers today?I read the news today oh boy
About a tragic comedy
Newspaper hinted suicide
The letterhead read dear JohnnyThe tainted truth was all it said
Sleep tight now that you've made your bed
An arrow that once pierced my heart
Points to the apple on your headThree sides to
Every story
Yours, mine and Monday morning'sCupid's dead, headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no
Cupid's dead, headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no noOh, Romeo, oh, Romeo
Where did our love go, Romeo?
If you read between the headlines
You wouldn't be the last to knowNo mystery yet to unfold
A paperboy left in the cold
A love was said to never die
Withered away and just got oldThree sides to

Every story
Yours, mine and Monday morning'sCupid's dead, headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no
Cupid's dead, headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no no noOur top story tonight, is a crime of passion
The victim, an unidentified man
Is found in bed, wearing only a diaper
Holding a bow an arrow in one hand
And clutching a letter in the other
The letter simply read, Cupid's deadExtra, extra
Extra
Read all about it
Extra{Cupid is dead, deceased, I got peace of mind
Still it's hard to forget, what it leaves behind
A lot of love lost, your feelings are wasted
Tasted the sweetness, but now you're faced with}{The thought, of being alone, no more companionship
You can handle it, just abandon it
Leave it behind, and look for the brighter day
Give it some time, 'cause it won't come right away}{You gotta be standing strong, hold on to your dignity
Don't sit around, saying look what ya did to me
It's time to move on, you gotta continue}{To look for a love, of a life that's within you
Cupid is dead now, it's time to rely on, yourself to cope
You got no shoulder to cry on dead}Cupid's dead

Extreme is a rock band consisting of singer/guitar virtuoso Nuno Bettencourt, singer/lyricist Gary Cherone, bassist/singer Pat Badger and drummer Kevin Figueiredo. The band first formed in 1985 in Boston with then drummer Paul Geary (who later got replaced by drummer Mike Mangini) until the band decided to go on an indefinite hiatus that ended up lasting more than 10 years (1996 - 2006). The band's influences range from the progressive hard rock and elaborate multi-vocals parts of Queen, the energy of Aerosmith and Van Halen, as well as Beatlesque pop and a Led Zeppelin organic feeling. Consequently, Extreme's music is never easy to classify; it's not just heavy metal, hard rock, or pop —their albums cover all of that territory with a sweeping ambition and a social consciousness to match. Although a hard rock band, it was the Everly Brothers-style acoustic ballad, "More Than Words," that crossed them over into the mainstream — it hit number one and the follow-up single, the acoustic-based pop rocker "Hole Hearted," hit number four.

They released two albums in the hey day of glam metal but received diminished attention from the mainstream following the grunge explosion following the release of Nirvana's "Nevermind" in 1991. Despite this, they released two more albums before the hiatus. Vocalist Gary Cherone went on to join Van Halen in 1997, replacing Sammy Hagar, and the group released "Van Halen III." He left Van Halen soon after, in 1999 and formed Tribe of Judah, with fellow Extreme members Pat Badger and Mike Mangini.

The group reformed in 2004 for a short tour of Boston and Japan, as well as reforming in 2006 for a small US tour.

On november 26th 2007, it was announced that Extreme will come back in 2008 with a new album & tour.
