Cupid's Dead |
I read the news today oh boy, |
About a tragic comedy |
Newspaper hinted suicide, |
The letterhead read Dear Johnny |
A tainted truth was all it said, |
Sleep tight now that |
You’ve made your bed |
An arrow that once pierced your heart |
Points to the apple on your head |
Three sides to every story |
Yours, mine |
And, Monday morning’s |
CUPID’S DEAD, HEADLINES READ, |
CUPID’S DEAD |
CUPID’S DEAD, HEADLINES READ, |
CUPID’S DEAD |
Oh, Romeo, Oh, Romeo |
Where did our love go, Romeo? |
If you read between the headlines, |
You wouldn’t be the last to know |
No mystery yet to unfold, |
A paperboy left in the cold |
A love was said to never die, |
Withered away and just got old |
Our 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 DEAD. |
Extra, extra, extra, |
read all about it CUPID’S DEAD, |
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 |
Nor 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 |
