Romeo, Romeo
Listen to Mab ...
Romeo, Romeo
Wherefore art thou?
I’m busy a minute,
I’ll be over now
Romeo, Romeo,
Where couldst thou be?
I’m just doing homework
Then having my tea
Romeo, Romeo,
Why dost thou tarry?
Let’s just be friends,
I don’t want to marry
Romeo, Romeo,
Wilt thou come near?
I’m not sure, it’s raining
I think I’ll stay here.
Wherefore art thou?
I’m busy a minute,
I’ll be over now
Romeo, Romeo,
Where couldst thou be?
I’m just doing homework
Then having my tea
Romeo, Romeo,
Why dost thou tarry?
Let’s just be friends,
I don’t want to marry
Romeo, Romeo,
Wilt thou come near?
I’m not sure, it’s raining
I think I’ll stay here.
