Paul Simon was asked directly and he was like, idk, something sexual, I didn't put that much thought into it 🤷‍♂️

The best part of a Paul Simon song is when he hints at being a shitty dude tbh 🥰

i think that the narrator and julio were probably fooling around and that Rosie is the narrator's girlfriend. he says goodbye to her after he has to run away after being caught with a boy

I, for some reason I always thought it was about segregation, but now I realize it may be gay

I don’t know why but I always thought Rosie was a prostitute in the neighborhood of Corona, Queens. She was well known, thus the queen.

corona is a neighborhood in Queens. I assumed Rosie was some neighborhood lady, maybe somebody's mom.

My dad told me they were protesting Vietnam. And he was from the 60s so I always just assumed he knew what he was talking about lol. But it does track with the line “it was all on the cover of Newsweek.”

Maybe Rosie was the sort of person he thought he wanted before being so very happy with Julio.

Yeah mean the song is intentionally vague so you fill in the blanks however you please. I just like to imagine it was something super dumb that is technically illegal but only people with sticks up their ass would care
