Dan Studney - Romeo & Juliet [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Jimmy

I need words to tell you 'bout my pounding heart
Four dollar words that make a guy sound smart
Well, I guess that's why they invented Shakespeare!
His articulations of a lover's palpitations are so keen

My bounty is as boundless as the sea (Oh!)
My love as deep the more I give to thee

Mary

Oh, you sound so dreamy when you talk like Shakespeare!

Jimmy & Mary

A big vocabulary should be customary when you fall in love

Jimmy

La la la la la la, you're a snowy dove!

Mary

La la la, prodigious birth of love!

Jimmy & Mary

La la la la la, hip hooray for Shakespeare!
Sure as I am breathing, you sure make Elizabethan language fun

We are just like Romeo and Juliet
We're happy, young and bubbling with love

Jimmy

I can't wait to read the ending!

Mary

I can't either!
But I'm sure it turns out real swell
I bet Romeo marries his Juliet

Jimmy

They have a baby

Mary

And make lots of friends!

Jimmy & Mary

That's prob'ly the way the play ends

Mary

You doth teach the torches how to burn real bright

Jimmy

Hanging like a jewel upon the cheek of night!

Jimmy & Mary

Hark! What light through yonder window breaks here
We'll be future spouses
Put a plague on both our houses if we're wrong
Shakespeare!
