about

Taken from the 2007 album Goodbye My Angry Friend

lyrics

The lazy bohemians sat out on the rooftops
Whistling at schoolgirls sucking on ice-pops
Those carefree idealists doing just as they want to
There’s a room in the attic for somebody like you

Lazy bohemians lazy by design
Cant get up in the morning can’t be arsed to go out at night
Talking bout a revolution hey man they’re out of sight
The lazy bohemians loathe big corporations
And the work ethic wind up of past generations
Those shaman in shameless
Pursuit of sensation picking a fight with my imagination

Lazy bohemians good for nothing swine
Picking holes in the system towing the establishment line
Talking bout a revolution

And all the wanting to be good people turn into those who never would people
And all the happy just to be people turn into you and me people

Get lazy go hazy

Crazy bohemians are throwing a party
Everybody’s invited don’t worry be happy
If you want to stay over you’re welcome to use my room
I’ll be cooking the dinner and sleeping late into the afternoon

There’s a sleeping bag in the corner
Yeah just behind the sofa
