lyrics

I want to meet you in the darkroom
I’ve grown accustomed to the chemical smell
I want to tell you about Man Ray
And why he made what he made

Let’s meet up later at the union
We’ll drink and talk about forming a band
Go to a happening in the car park
Is this new for you too?

What happens after is not important
What happens next year could be more important

Bohemian dreams
At college in a county town
Paris in 1918
Tequila shots and pints for a pound
The downtown scene
That would have suited you and me
Bohemian dreams
Followed by uncertainty

We started out a bit unsteady
But now we’re ticking all the right boxes
And while you’re upstairs getting ready
I’m chatting with your flatmate

“Well does he think we’re going out now?
These last six months have been a bit of a whirl
I’ve been at parties with some third years
Who seem to know where they’re going”

What happens after is not important
What happens next year could be more important

Bohemian dreams
At college in a county town
Paris in 1918
Tequila shots and pints for a pound
The downtown scene
That would have suited you and me
Bohemian dreams
Followed by uncertainty

(Enjoy it while it lasts, avoiding the broken glass)

They create wry, affectionate songs featuring characters in a world specific to a time but nonetheless relatable. The themes of self discovery are, in the end, universal ... more
