why post song lyrics?

je ne veux pas travailler
je ne veux pas déjeuner
je veux seulement oublier
et puis je fume

je ne suis pas fier de ça
vie qui veut me tuer
c'est magnifique
être sympathique
mais je ne le connais jamais


I always think this song should have been called ennui. Or maybe c'est pourquoi je fume.

It's not new; every time I hear it it conjures up images of sunny, lazy afternoons at Penn. But I never really understood it, I think, until now. Anyway I just bought the CD and discovered they're not really French. So poser.
