Lyrics

I'm Bored

[Verse 1]

I'm bored

I'm the chairman of the bored

I'm a lengthy monologue

I'm livin' like a dog

I'm bored

[Chorus]

I bore myself to sleep at night

I bore myself in broad daylight

'Cause I'm bored

Just another slimy bore

[Verse 2]

I'm free to bore my well-bought friends

And spend my cash until the end

'Cause I'm bored

I'm bored

I'm the chairman of the bored

[Refrain]

I'm sick

I'm sick of all my kicks

I'm sick of all the stiffs

I'm sick of all the dips

I'm bored

[Chorus]

I bore myself to sleep at night

I bore myself in broad daylight

'Cause I'm bored

I'm bored

Just another dirty bore

[Bridge]

Alright, doll-face

Come on and bore me

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]

I'm sick

I'm sick of all my kicks

I'm sick of all the stiffs

I'm sick of all the dips

I'm sick

[Chorus]

I'm sick when I go to sleep at night

I'm still sick in the broad daylight

'Cause I'm bored

I'm bored

I'm the chairman of the bored
