  1. What if I were Romeo in black jeans
    What if I was Heathcliff, it's no myth
    Maybe she's just looking for
    Someone to dance with

  2. Romeo is dead, Juliet is dyin'
    Love and death has got this whole town cryin'

  3. Juliet says "hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack!"
    He's underneath the window she's singing "hey la, my boyfriend's back.
    You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that...
    Anyway what you gonna do about it?"

  4. Romeo was restless, he was ready to kill
    He jumped out the window 'cause he couldn't sit still
    Juliet was waiting with a safety net
    He said, "Don't bury me 'cause I'm not dead yet"

  5. Romeo, oh Romeo
    Wherefore art thou Romeo?
    He's in a car or at a bar
    Or churning his blood
    with an impure drug

  6. I was never satisfied with casual encounters
    I cant hide my need for two hearts that bleed with burning love
    Thats the way its got to be
    Romeo and juliet, they never felt this way I bet
    So dont underestimate my point of view

  7. Romeo and juliet, samson and delilah
    Baby you can bet their love they didnt deny
    Your words say split but your words they lie
    `cause when we kiss, fire

  8. Maybe he's no Romeo
    But he's my lovin' one man show
    Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Let's hear it for the boy

  9. Valentine is done
    Here but now they're gone
    Romeo and Juliet
    Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet
    40,000 men and women everyday...Like Romeo and Juliet

  10. Juliet, where's your romeo
    where oh where is your romeo
    tell me juliet where's your romeo
    tell us tell us dear for we all want to know

Rules, always with the rules
Points only for those you know without googling. Obviously I can't stand over you with a Nun ruler, so I'll borrow from the guidelines Ken Jennings uses for his Tuesday Trivia:
As with all good trivia, it would take you about 30 seconds to Google the answers. So you're on the honor system here: no peeking, and only send in the answers you knew off the top of your head.

Unless otherwise noted, spoiler discussions are allowed in the comments. So discuss the answers as much as you want in the comments and if you're still guessing then avoid the comments until your answers are ready.
