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

And 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, headline read,

Cupid’s dead oh no, no…

Cupid’s dead, headline read,

Cupid’s dead oh no, no…

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 paper boy left in the cold

A love was said to never die

Withered away and just got old

Three sides to every story

Yours, mine

And Mondays morning’s

Cupid’s dead, headline read,

Cupid’s dead oh no, no…

Cupid’s dead, headline read,

Cupid’s dead oh no, no…

Our top story tonight, is a crime of passion

The victim and unidentified man

Is found in bed, wearing only a diaper

Holding a bow an narrow 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 on mind

Still it’s hard to forget, what it leaves behinds

A lot of love lost, you’re feelings are wasted

Tested the sweetness, but now you’re faced with

The thought, of being alone no more companion ship

You can handle it, just abandon it

Leave it behind, and look for the brighter day

Give it sometime, cause it won’t come right away

You gotta be standing strong, hold on to your dignity

Don’t sit around, saying look what did to me

It’s time to move on, you gotta continue

To look for a love, of a life within you

Cupid is dead now, it’s time to rely on

Yourself to cope

You got no shoulder to cry on

Dead!
