"Bourgeois" lyrics
(originally by Phoenix)
Darling, you never know
It started years ago
When you're less than kind of done
An adolescent singing out real loud
Some wild English tune
"Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la"
We'll never talk it out this time
You'll learn from all of us
When your time's up
How it all began
Seriously dumb
When you're less than kind of certain
An adolescent saying out real loud
It's what singers do
Sing, "Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la"
We'll never talk it out this time
You'll learn from all of us
When your time's up
Bet your life on a cruise ship, bartending crucial lies
We're destined, wise, and we socialize
Bourgeois, why would you care for more?
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
Bourgeois, your fire's a false alarm
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
Darling, you'll never know
Darling, you'll never know
When you're less than kind of done
Adolescence looking at you now
Like foreign legions do
Sing, "Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la"
You'll never talk it out this time
You'll learn from all of us when your time's up
You lost your mind on a cruise ship, bartending crucial lies
We're destined, wise, and we socialize
Bourgeois, why would you care for more?
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
Bourgeois, your fire's a false alarm
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
It started years ago
When you're less than kind of done
An adolescent singing out real loud
Some wild English tune
"Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la"
We'll never talk it out this time
You'll learn from all of us
When your time's up
How it all began
Seriously dumb
When you're less than kind of certain
An adolescent saying out real loud
It's what singers do
Sing, "Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la"
We'll never talk it out this time
You'll learn from all of us
When your time's up
Bet your life on a cruise ship, bartending crucial lies
We're destined, wise, and we socialize
Bourgeois, why would you care for more?
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
Bourgeois, your fire's a false alarm
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
Darling, you'll never know
Darling, you'll never know
When you're less than kind of done
Adolescence looking at you now
Like foreign legions do
Sing, "Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la"
You'll never talk it out this time
You'll learn from all of us when your time's up
You lost your mind on a cruise ship, bartending crucial lies
We're destined, wise, and we socialize
Bourgeois, why would you care for more?
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
Bourgeois, your fire's a false alarm
They gave you almost everything
You believed almost anything
