The song is so complex it is unfair to post one portion of the song and define the song by that one portion. Mercury did alot of different things lyrically through out the song that is FAR from cheesy. I love Bohemian Rhapsody. I cried the first time I heard it along with We are the Champions
I think you'll find that the members of Queen did consider it to be a tongue in cheek effort. They knew the bizarre lyrical content wouldn't be taken seriously. I think personally there is alot of amazing song structure to it and Mercury is an amazing vocalist but its certainly not to be taken seriously.
