SO YOU THINK YOU´RE A ROMEO
PLAYING A PART IN A PICTURE-SHOW
TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
´CAUSE YOU´RE THE JOKE OF THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
WHY SHOULD YOU CARE IF YOU´RE FEELING GOOD
TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
BUT THERE ARE TIMES THAT YOU FEEL
YOU´RE PART OF THE SCENERY
ALL THE GREENERY IS COMIN´DOWN, BOY
AND THEN YOUR WIFE SEEMS TO THINK
YOU´RE PART OF THE FURNITURE
OH, IT´S PECULIAR, SHE USED TO BE SO NICE
WHEN LONELY DAYS TURN TO LONELY NIGHTS
YOU TAKE A TRIP TO THE CITY LIGHTS
AND TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
YOU NEVER SEE WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE
FROM EVERYTHING TO THE GALLERY
YOU TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
AND WHEN YOU´RE UP ON THE STAGE
IT´S SO UNBELIEVABLE,UNFORGETTABLE
HOW THEY ADORE YOU
BUT THEN YOUR WIFE SEEMS TO THINK
YOU´RE LOSING YOUR SANITY
OH, CALAMITY, OH IS THERE NO WAY OUT!
DOES IT FEEL THAT YOUR LIFE´S BECOME A CATASTROPHE!
OH, IT HAS TO BE FOR YOU TO GROW, BOY
WHEN YOU LOOK THROUGH THE YEARS
AND SEE WHAT YOU COULD HAVE BEEN
OH, WHAT YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN
IF YOU´D HAD MORE TIME
SO, WHEN THE DAY COMES TO SETTLE DOWN,
WHO´S TO BLAME IF YOU´RE NOT AROUND?
YOU TOOK THE LONG WAY HOME
YOU TOOK THE LONG WAY HOME
