about

"Romeo" is an 80s-pop take on toxic masculinity and how it stalls relationships.

lyrics

Romeo
Where did you go, after the show?
We were going to hang out
Romeo
With your tilted smile
Won’t you stay a while?
There’s so much more that I wanna know
Hey Romeo!

And if you should walk away from me
And all the thoughts you’re feeling
Don’t be ashamed of the unknown
Hey Romeo! Oh!

Romeo doesn’t know how to love
But he’s everything I’m dreaming of
Just stay here, with no fear
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!

Oh, my Romeo
Has got a wandering eye
How I wish to be a fly
On his bedroom walls
Hey Romeo!
Why won’t you admit, that you’re afraid to commit?
You run to where you are called (You are called x4)

And if you should walk away from me
And all the thoughts you’re feeling
Don’t be ashamed of the unknown
Hey Romeo! Oh!

Romeo doesn’t know how to love
But he’s everything I’m dreaming of
Just stay here, with no fear
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!

Why can’t you tell it straight to me?
I can understand
You’re too busy caught up, trying to prove that you’re a man
R-O-M-E-O (x3)
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!
R-O-M-E-O (x3)
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!

Romeo doesn’t know how to love
But he’s everything I’m dreaming of
Just stay here, with no fear
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!
Romeo’s gotta stick to the plan
He’s too busy tryna be a man
Just stay here, with no fear
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!
R-O-M-E-O (x3), My, my, my Romeo! (x3)
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!
R-O-M-E-O (x3), My, my, my Romeo! (x3)
My Romeo! My Romeo! Oh!
