Оригинален текст
A boy loved a girl but the girl said no
she ran away with a handsome gigolo
he loved her but they were through
so he fed himself to the lions at the zoo
romeo and juliet, a wierdo couple that i met
they had a little drink with a strange effect
some mistakes you can't correct
ain't it sad about the boys' and the girls'
ain't it sad about the whole damn world
love is a thing you can't control
when you're young or when you're old
and i don't play sympathetic parts
so you can keep your broken heart
