"A New Bohemia" lyrics - PET SHOP BOYS

Like silent movie stars
In '60s Hollywood
No one knows who you are
In the hipster neighbourhood
Your only friend
Is a memory of a dream
Walking down the Strip
Looking for the latest scene

[Chorus:]
Where have they gone, les Petites Bon-Bons?
Who dances now to their sweet old song?
I wish I lived my life free-and-easier
I need to find a new Bohemia

Hot on the heels
Of the absolute last chance
I watched them trying out
Something new from France
Kamikaze eyes
Locked in a trance
Improvising
A wild hypnotic dance

[Chorus:]
Where have they gone, les Petites Bon-Bons?
Who dances now to their sweet old song?
I wish I lived my life free-and-easier
I need to find a new Bohemia

Every day is a warning
Evening might forget
Then the following morning has
The sweet smell of regret
I'm always in love
I'm easily led
My life is a mess
Like an unmade bed

[Chorus:]
Where have they gone, les Petites Bon-Bons?
Who dances now to their sweet old song?
I wish I lived my life free-and-easier
I need to find a new Bohemia

[Outro:]
Where are they now?
Where have they gone?
Who dances now to their song?
I wish I lived my life free-and-easier
I'm on my way to a new bohemia
