mimi, i’m surprised
a bright and charming girl like you
hangs out with these slackers
who don’t adhere to deals
they make fun, yet i’m the one
attempting to do some good

where people puke on your stoop every night?

[all]
la vie bohème
la vie bohème
la vie bohème
la vie bohème
[mark]
to days of inspiration
playing hooky
making something out of nothing
(la vie bohème)
the need to express
to communicate
(la vie bohème)
to going against the grain
going insane
(la vie bohème)
going mad
(la vie bohème)
to loving tension, no pension
to more than one dimension
(la vie bohème)
to starving for attention
hating convention
hating pretension
(la vie bohème)
not to mention, of course
(la vie bohème)
hating dear old mom and dad
(la vie bohème)
to riding your bike
midday past the three-piece suits
(la vie bohème)
to fruits
to no absolute
(la vie bohème)
to absolut
to choice
to the village voice
(la vie bohème)
to any p-ssing fad
to being an us, for once
instead of a them
[all]
la vie bohème
la vie bohème
