MARK
Dearly beloved we gather here to say our goodbyes
COLLINS & ROGER
Dies irae - dies illa, Kyrie eleison
Yitgadal v'yitkadash
Here she lies, no one knew her worth
The late great daughter of Mother Earth
On these nights when we
Celebrate the birth
In that little town of Bethlehem
We raise our glass - you bet your ass to -
La vie Bohème
La vie Bohème
La vie Bohème
La vie Bohème
La vie Bohème
To days of inspiration
Playing hookey, making
Something out of nothing
The need to express-
To communicate,
To going against the grain,
Going insane, going mad
To loving tension, no pension
To more than one dimension,
To starving for attention,
Hating convention, hating pretension
Not to mention of course,
Hating dear old Mom and Dad
To riding your bike,
Midday past the three-piece suits
To fruits - to no absolutes-
To Absolut - to choice-
To the Village Voice-
To any passing fad
To being an us for once ... instead of a them!
La vie Bohème!
La vie Bohème

So that's five miso soup, four seaweed salad
Three soy burger dinner, two tofu dog platter
And one pasta with meatless balls

It tastes the same
If you close your eyes
WAITER
And thirteen orders of fries
Is that it here?
Wine and beer!

Made in local breweries
