lyrics

I'm so bored!
There's nothing I can do
I've surfed and jerked and checked the fridge
a thousand times before

I've tried
Everything and more
There's nothing fun that I can find
Still looking for a cure

I don't need to work today
But I don't want to play
All my board games boring
It's too snowy of a day

So I'm forced to stay inside
And try to bide my time
The clock is ticking slower
As I think of things to rhyme

I'm so bored!
There's nothing I can do
I've cleaned the house and organized I've even mopped the floor

I've tried
Everything and more
With emails checked and Hulu watched
I've seen it all before

(Jim)
I'm tired of the Internet
My stomachs filled with food
I could play an instrument
But I'm not in the mood

So instead I'll write this song
And make a video
I'll show the world what I can do
With final cut and Logic Pro

I'm so bored!
There's nothing I can do
Except for me to write a crappy irish song or two

I've tried
Everything and more
There's nothing fun that I can find
still looking for a cure

"Alllright everyone, now it's time for the sing-a-long part, are you ready?" (yaaa)
"ok, I need all you people to sing along"

la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
just the sopranos this time
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
everybody!
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
just the dogs!
woof woof woof woof woof woof woof…

I'm so bored!
There's nothing I can do
Except for me to write a crappy irish song or two

I've tried
Everything and more
There's nothing fun that I can find still looking for a cure
There's nothing fun that I can find still looking for a cure
