Song language: English
Love is a Bourgeois Construct |
| I’ve been taking my time for a long time |
| Putting my feet up all odds |
| Speaking English as a foreign language |
| Any words that I haven’t forgot |
| I’ve been thinking how I can’t be bothered |
| To wash the dishes or remake the bed |
| What’s the point when I could just… instead? |
| I’ve been hanging as a fairy trif raf |
| Somewhere along the go hobrose |
| I don’t think it’s gonna be much longer |
| So I know they’re up, harlequin old codes |
| Love is a bourgeois construct |
| So I’ve given up on the bourgeoisie |
| Like all their aspirations, it’s a fantasy |
| When you walked out you did me a favor |
| You made me see reality |
| This love is a bourgeois construct |
| It’s a blame turn to fallacy |
| You won’t see me with a bunch of losers |
| Promising fatality |
| Love doesn’t mean a thing to me |
| Talking tough as we linger |
| We’re better now, it’s clear to me |
| Love is a bourgeois construct |
| So I’ve given up on the bourgeoisie |
| While we’re anchored forget the voices |
| I’ll just get along with what I’ve got |
| Watching the weeds in the garden |
| Putting my fear upon odds |
| I’ll explore the outer limits of boredom |
| Moaning periodically |
| Drift a far time, lonely lay about |
| That’s me |
| When you walked out you did me a favor |
| It’s absolutely clear to me |
| That love is a bourgeois construct |
| Just like they said at university |
| I’ve been taking my time for a long time |
| With all the shadow and forever its cost |
| Calculating what you’ve lost |
| Now I’m digging through my student paper bags |
| Flicking through Karl Marx again |
| Searching for the soul of England |
| Drinking tea like Tony Benn |
| Love is just a bourgeois construct |
| So give it up, the bourgeoisie |
| Until you come back to me |
| Bourgeois, Bourgeoisie |
| Bourgeois, Bourgeoisie |
| Bourgeois, Bourgeoisie |
| Bourgeois, Bourgeoisie |
| Bourgeois, Bourgeoisie |
| Bourgeois, Bourgeoisie |
| Talking tough and feeling bitter |
| We’re better now, it’s clear to me |
| That love is a bourgeois construct |
| So I’ve given up the bourgeoisie |
