Romeo Is Bleeding

Romeo is bleeding, not so as you'd notice

He's over on 18th street as usual

Lookin' so hard against the hood of his car

Puttin' out a cigarette in his hand

For all the pachucos at the pumps

At Romero's Paint and Body

They're all seein' how far they can spit

Well, it was just another night

And now they're huddled in the

Brake lights of a 58 Belair

And listenin' to how Romeo killed

The Sheriff with his knife

And they all jump when they hear the sirens

Romeo just laughs

"All the racket in the world ain't never gonna

Save that Coppers' ass

He ain't never gonna see another summertime

For gunnin' down my brother

Leavin' him like a dog

Beneath a car without his knife"

Romeo says," Hey man, gimme a cigarette"

And they all reach for their pack

Frankie lights it for him and pats him on the back

An' throws a bottle at a milk truck

And as it breaks, he grabs his nuts

An' they all know, they could be just like Romeo

If they only had the guts

Romeo is bleeding, nobody can tell

An' he sings along with the radio

With a bullet in his chest

An' he combs back his fenders

They all agree it's clear

That everything is cool, and if Romeo was here

Romeo is bleeding an' he winces now an' then

An' he leans against the car door

Feels the blood in his shoes

Someone's cryin' at the fire point

In the phone booth by the store

Romeo starts his engines

Wipes the blood off the door

And he brodys through the signal

With the radio full blast

Leavin' the boys there, hikin' up their chinos

And now they're all tryin' to stand like Romeo

With the moon, cut like a sickle

And they're talkin' now in Spanish, all about their hero

Romeo is bleeding as he gives the man his ticket

And he climbs the balcony at the movies

And he'll die without a whimper

Like every hero's dream

Like an angel with a bullet

And Cagney on a screen

Romeo is bleeding

Romeo is bleeding

Hey man, Romeo is bleeding

Hey man, Romeo is bleeding

Hey man, Romeo is bleeding
