We Are All Bourgeois Now |
There’s something wrong somewhere here |
So through unclean streets |
I made my way |
With holes in my shoes and my children asleep at my feet |
I paid my way |
In every town on the way |
The people looked grey, the buildings looked healthy |
But one day I met a man |
With money to spare |
He said he will tell me how it is |
The state he began has been propping up people too long |
For far too long |
We all got lazy and couldn’t be bothered to make our way through the world |
But we are all bourgeois now |
Once there was class war |
But not any longer because baby we are all bourgeois now |
So go out and make your way in the world |
We’re free to choose |
We’re all free to choose x2 |
We’re free to choose |
In booming Britain, we all work together to raise ourselves in the world |
Each of us know someone who has done well for themselves |
So well for themselves |
«Thank you» I said as I left |
I’ll be on my way |
I see how it is |
We are all bourgeois now and somehow I’ll raise myself through the world |
I’m free to choose |
We’re all free to choose x2 |
I’m free to choose |
We’re all bourgeois now x2 |
We’re bourgeois now |
