Martha redbone boyfriend lyrics

standing in a starbucks line, he was sipping lemonade

he didn't give a damn about all the people or what they said

I ordered my coffee, strong and black and straight

we talked about love and garbage 

and he told me that he was gay



I guess it's c'est la vie, guess I should have known

thought i'd found a lover, that's the way life goes

said he'd like to know me, see me once again

maybe we can hang...



chorus

he said i've got a boyfriend

he said i've got a boyfriend, ooh

he said i've got a boyfriend

but I kinda like girls, too...



even all the times we hung out on platonic dates

it was only then that I found out we were true soulmates

I was almost certain that he'd suit me to the tee

til I caught him wearing my dress- and looking better than me



I guess it's c'est la vie, guess I should have known

thought i'd found a lover, that's the way life goes

said he'd like to know me, and his feelings sometimes change

but I thought...what a waste...eh?



chorus



I guess it's c'est la vie, guess I should have known

thought i'd found a lover, that's the way life goes

said he'd like to know me, see me once again

maybe we can hang...



repeat chorus
