Adventures in New Bohemia

[Verse 1]
Who's the loveable rogue known to compose colourful prose?
I'm on the road till my foot prints cover the globe
I speak low with a lump in my throat, and a lung full a smoke
Bunnin' dope in my humble abode, it's Bohemia
Sepia tone memorabilia, soak up the media
Daytime TV's gettin' kinda tedious
Trapped with the social deviants
In the confines of my immediate
Future is fruitless
I'm through duckin' tutors
Dust so thick it dates back to the Tudors
Livin' in student digs on tins of tuna
Who spent the rent down the boozer?
We sip beers and split hairs over current-affairs
Any unwelcome guests get chucked down the stairs
The place where I pedal my wares
All the fun of the fair
B-boys hold down the square, it goes

[Chorus]
Adventures in New Bohemia
Spark it everyday!
Adventures in New Bohemia
'Cause that's the place we stay
Adventures in New Bohemia
We got to pay the rent
Adventures in New Bohemia
That's what we represent
Adventures in New Bohemia
Adventures in New Bohemia
Adventures in New Bohemia

[Verse 2]
Yeah
Call me the counterfeit Big Lebowski
The part-time alchy (What?) scramblin' around for his house key
Knee deep in debris
Sippin' on PG Tips like a chimpanzee
I'm the one-man jamboree
I won't ram out ya jam for free, I perform for a standard fee
'Cause I'm freezin' cold, sleepin'
With no central heatin'
I can even see mould growin' on the ceilin'
From my neighbours pipes that keep leakin'
In need of some herbal healin'
I search and rummage
Eyes light up like rubies in a world of rubbish
Lookin' bummy like Worzel Gummidge
Drunk and undernourished, run ya gums and get rushed by the scrummage
The man with the dish-pan hands (Yeah, yeah)
Big band bustin' up ya tin pan jams

[Chorus]
Adventures in New Bohemia
Spark it everyday!
Adventures in New Bohemia
'Cause that's the place we stay
Adventures in New Bohemia
We got to pay the rent
Adventures in New Bohemia
That's what we represent

[Verse 3]
It's Bohemia
All we do is wash up and bill up
And fill up our cups with the cheap stuff
Puffin' on punk free tree trunks
Cuttin' up breezeblocks
Bonding with b-boys who need detox
Yeah the seeds pop
I get paranoid and wonder whether the neighbours ever eavesdrop
Livin' in the flat that time forgot
Where evrybody has a vice but we tryin' to stop
Or maybe not
Jottin by the light of lamps
I'm boxed in with the moths and the rising damp
Cramped coz of all the clutter
Crumbs in the butter
Theres a better side of life im tryin' to disover
Theres another day with fine and rhyming skills
Till I bop to the shop for a pint of milk
Its time to build and pay the bills
Not to mention the rent
Right now thats what I represent yow

[Chorus]
Adventures in New Bohemia
Spark it everyday!
Adventures in New Bohemia
'Cause that's the place we stay
Adventures in New Bohemia
We got to pay the rent
Adventures in New Bohemia
That's what we represent

[Outro]
Yeah Yeah Yeah get down with us
.... yeah Get down with us
.... yeah Get down with us
The domesticated age yeah get down with us
All the housebound players get down with us
All the herbalist hermits get down with us
Beats to the equalizer get down with us
Bohemia the place stays covered in dust

It goes
Adventures in New Bohemia
Adventures in New Bohemia
Adventures in New Bohemia-a-a
