Lyrics Bourgeois Town - The Fall

Bourgeois Town

And your wife
And your settee
Don’t want to be mistreated by neo-bourgeoisie
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois town
Spread the news around
Open newspaper
What do i see
A politician with kids doing the best for me
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois blues
Spread the news around
Get on a bus
Keep head down
A DG gets on sits opposite like a clown
A bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’ve got the bourgeois blues
Spread the news around
I’ve got the bourgeois blues
In a bourgeois town
And i go to park
For fresh air
I look around there’s loads of beach bums and men with shaven hair
I’ve got the bourgeois blues
I’ve got the bourgeois blues
I’m in a bourgeois town
Spread the news around
I open mail
For letters from friends
Or maybe cheques
All I get is demands from the C.O.
Exchequer
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois city
I’ve got the bourgeois blues
Spread the news around
Get on a train
To get out of town
Sat opposite a politician with his head held down
Walk back streets
To fresh air
I meet a journalist with no money for beer
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois town
I’m in a bourgeois town
