Boyfriend Lyrics - Singles - Martha Redbone

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
