The Sulking Poet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Love is everything you said it was
Love is rain upon the roof at night
I'm just trying to write some words
Through the bars of a rhyme this time
Thinking back to when I was a child
I was trying to become someone
I can still remember road signs
Let's have a toast to the sulking boy
God, guess some lives were made to be wasted
I've tried and I'm trying, yes, I truly hate it
Sing ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Now the child is a young man
Everyday is like a rolling storm
And he's playing in a covers band
Does a Sunday in a clothing store
Won't you stay until sunrise?
You could maybe help find my voice
Tell me everything is alright
We'll sing a song for the sulking boy
God, guess some lives were made to be wasted
I've tried and I'm trying, yes, I truly hate it
Sing ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
The devil's in the detail
Life is the ship we sail
The devil's in the detail
Life is the ship we sail
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Love is everything you said it was
Love is rain upon the roof at night
I'm just trying to write some words
Through the bars of a rhyme this time
Thinking back to when I was a child
I was trying to become someone
I can still remember road signs
Let's have a toast to the sulking boy
God, guess some lives were made to be wasted
I've tried and I'm trying, yes, I truly hate it
Sing ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, Juliet
