A song about a love affair gone terribly, terribly fucking backward real quick, written by me, Mila Anhielo and performed by us... Bored in French Class!

Lyrics
It took six months
Hyped up like coffee cups
to even get remotely close to you

And even then, as a friend,
All the songs I wrote were about you
and I didn't know.
And I sang to you please, please
don't ever get sick of me.

(Chorus)
And you, should find someone who tells more joke
And you, should find someone with better skin
And you, should find someone who understands
electronic music like you do.

And if you did, I'd still be
writing all my stupid poetry
Wondering how it got to be
So convoluted, you and me
how you made it look so god damn easy.

You got a hotel job in Hermosa
You've got misogynistic friends in the valley
and you laugh at all their jokes
even though they are oppressive
You've got all these things now
and none of them have anything to do with me
anymore.

(chorus)

Coffee Cups (improvised version)

A song about a best friend.

Lyrics by Mila and performed by Bored in French Class

Lyrics

We are both past our prime. 
Both have reached about as much potential
as we're going to in this lifetime.
And we're okay with that!

We have scars in the same places,
the inside of our forearms and in the crevices
of our poor hearts.
When our eyes press against those big windows on the subway.

We both don't mind starving
in fact we've found that being comfortable
is overrated
and you can't start a revolution without a little
suffering.

(Chorus)
But even though we should be,
let's not be.
And even though we should be,
let's not be.

If I know you well as I know myself
I know you enjoy a little loneliness
conversations with yourself
on the sidewalk
and a single cup of coffee filled to the brim.

(Chorus)


Let's not be (Improvised Version)

This is a song about being really sure that you're not sure at all.

Certainly Half-Heartedly (Improvised Version)

More improvisation for ya'll! We love this :]

Lyrics:

Don't be like those men who throw
their fast food trash out the window
and honk at people who walk by
and get home late at night only to cry

Don't be like those men who say
they love women only to get laid.
But never want to just be friends
'cause they want more, all the benefits.

And don't assume that anarchy means chaos.
Organization is okay (better thank okay!)

(Chorus)
Don't forget that you're my little brother
if I should die before you turn sixteen.
And remember drugs are fun from a distance
but they hurt real bad in the morning.

Honey, don't you ever believe
that writing music makes you special
no matter how many times
the record label tells you.
Get to bed at a reasonable hour,
like the humble setting sun.
Leave some time to take a shower
before class.

(Chorus)

Don't be like those people who don't look twice
for bicycles and don't stop at stop signs.

Don't ever stop watching twin peaks
or get too old for sci-fi movies
and don't assume all homeless men will hurt you
and that all religious people are mean
because they're not!

Don't overpay for records
when you have rent due,
and always, always, always, always
put other people before you.

Lastly don't you dare forget,
that life is but one short breath. 
You should really savor it,
and try to watch your salt intake
because those kidneys need a break sometime.
