Boredom [1st Take] Lyrics
Well I say what I mean
I say what comes to mind
I never get round to things
I'm living a straight, straight line
You know me--I'm acting dumb
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--boredom
Now I'm living in a movie
Which doesn't move me
I'm the one waiting for the phone to ring
Ring-a-ring-a-fucking-ding
You know me--I'm acting dumb
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--boredom
Now there's nothing behind me
And I'm already a has-been
My future ain't what it was
I think I know the words that I mean
You know me--I'm acting dumb
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--be 'dumb, be 'dumb
I've taken this extravagant journey
So it seems to me
To arrive from nowhere
And to go straight back there
You know me--I'm acting dumb
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--boredom
I say what comes to mind
I never get round to things
I'm living a straight, straight line
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--boredom
Which doesn't move me
I'm the one waiting for the phone to ring
Ring-a-ring-a-fucking-ding
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--boredom
And I'm already a has-been
My future ain't what it was
I think I know the words that I mean
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--be 'dumb, be 'dumb
So it seems to me
To arrive from nowhere
And to go straight back there
You know the scene--very humdrum
Boredom--boredom--boredom
