BORED Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bored of the way you think that I like you
I'm bored of the way they talk all about you
I'm bored of your day job, I'm bored of your evening
Bored of the shit you chat when you're steaming
I'm bored of the lies and I'm bored of the fighting
I'm bored of the way you speak
Yeah, I'm bored of the gaslighting, the truth you're hiding
I'm bored of the lunch you eat
I'm bored of the clones and I'm bored of the music
I'm bored of my phone and the way that I use it
I'm bored of the showin', I'm bored of the tellin'
Bored of the lives we're selling
I'm bored of the impatient perfectionism
I'm bored of only wanting the things that I'm missing
I'm bored of the scrolling, I'm bored of the choosing
Bored of the soul we're losing
[Chorus]
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
[Verse 2]
Bored of the pictures, I'm bored of your pose
Yeah, I'm bored of the wages you stuff up your nose
Yeah, I'm bored of your ego, I'm bored of your shame
I'm bored of you forgetting my name
Yeah, I'm bored of the way we think we know what we're saying
I'm bored of the way we think we're saving
The planet, the world with our bank account savings
I'm bored of the ads and I'm bored of the craving
Bored of the hyper-normalization
I'm bored of the coffee I buy at the station
I'm bored of the apathy, bored of the nation
Bored of never being patient
I'm bored of the boring trainers you wear on your feet
Yeah I'm bored of the Saturday nights on the street
Bored of pretending not to be weak
I'm bored of no one admitting defeat
[Chorus]
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
[Bridge]
I'm bored of your laugh when I'm not being funny
I'm bored that I'm poor while I'm makin' you money
Yeah, I'm bored, yeah, I'm bored
I'm bored of your laugh when I'm not being funny
I'm bored that I'm poor while I'm makin' you money
Yeah, I'm bored, yeah, I'm bored
[Chorus]
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
Won't you fail with me?
BORED Q&A
What did IDER say about "BORED"?
“BORED” was written in a stream of consciousness when we were feeling particularly pissed off with the music industry; all of the lip service and the many cooks in the kitchen having an opinion for the sake of it. But on a more general level, the song addresses areas of corporate power, false advert...
What have the artists said about the song?
The chorus is a mantra to failure. There’s so much keeping up appearances, it’s like, “Just fucking say it how it is, make a mistake like everyone does. Let’s all fuck up together and celebrate that.”
