The song...
[Intro: Rex Orange County & Corinne Bailey Rae]
When you're having fun, fun
(Time flies, time flies, time flies)
When you're having fun (Time flies)
Out the window (It goes, goes, goes)
[Chorus: Rex Orange County & Anna of the North]
Find some time, find some time to do something
Find some time, find some time to do something
Find some time, find some time to do something
Ah
[Bridge: Rex Orange County & Anna of the North]
Boredom got a new best friend
(Boredom, boredom, best friend)
'Cause boredom got a new best friend (Oh, oh, oh)
Boredom got a new best friend
Na-na-na, na-na-na, oh-na-na-na
Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus: Rex Orange County & Anna of the North]
Find some time, find some time to do something
Find some time (Find some time, oh)
[Verse 1: Tyler, The Creator]
Boredom, boredom, boredom, boredom
Boredom, boredom, boredom
Boy, my bedroom floor is a cereal burial, I'm serious
I ate 'em all, dry boxes, bodies, yeah I caught 'em
If we're talkin' 'bout real meals, ask my stomach, he ain't saw 'em
I've been in this fuckin' room so long
My eyeballs are turning to drywall
My friends suck, fuck 'em, I'm over 'em
"Hi y'all, y'all ain't hit me all-day
What the fuck is the problem? Is it me?
'Cause I'm not solved, I'm... bored"
[Chorus: Rex Orange County & Anna of the North]
Find some time, find some time to do something
Find some time, find some time to do something
Find some time, find some time to do something
(Oh)
[Verse 2: Tyler, The Creator]
Bored and getting desperate as hell
(Desperate, using, texting, amusing)
Cellular not amusing and I hope someone will
Message me with some plans that are amusing as well
'Cause I haven’t seen the exit of these walls since before this morning
Morning, morning, morning, morning
(Morning, oh, what the fuck?)
Got some cars I can handle but nowhere for performance
My stomach angry and yellin', I need some food, I could order
But I hate eating solo
Need someone, we can loiter in parking lots
As sunsets at the border, yeah
Ringy dingy dong, I can't be alone
I been starting to feel like I don't know anyone
So now I'm staring at my ceiling fuckin' blowing
Like I have no idea where I'm going
Tick tock
(Damn, gotta get outta here)
[Chorus: Rex Orange County, Anna of the North and Tyler, the Creator]
Find some time, find some time to do something
(Hey, can y'all help me right quick?)
Find some time, find some time to do something
Find some time, find some time to do something (Tick tock)
(Ti-ti-tick tock) (Oh)
[Bridge: Tyler, the Creator & Anna of the North]
'Cause boredom got a new best friend
Tick tock
Boredom got a new best friend
'Cause boredom got a new best friend
Tick tock
[Outro: Rex Orange County]
Find some time, find some time
Gotta find some time, find some time
Gonna find some, find some time
Gotta find some time, find some time
Gonna find some, find some time
Gotta find some time, find some time
Gonna find some, find some time
Time, time, time, time
Time, time, time, time
Time, time, time, time
Time, time, time

Rex Orange County is a British singer, previously cosigned by Tyler. His music mainly falls under “indie/alternative” but some of his tracks such as “UNO” are more rap orientated.
At first members of Reddit thought he was singing in the outro. However, Tyler confirmed it not to be true when he uploaded Boredom to YouTube. The outro is presumably just Rex Orange County pitched down.
It is a high chance that it represents Tyler’s inner voices talking to each other cause of boredom.
[Tyler’s team] liked “Sway,” we had some contact on social media, then they sneaked me in backstage at a gig they played and we just talked. Two years later they asked if I wanted to help Tyler with something, then Tyler mailed me and asked if I wanted to do some vocals and of course, of course, I t...
In “Flower Boy a Conversation” Tyler states that he wrote the song while sitting in his room bored.
“I wrote that wrote that literally 5pm on a Saturday laying on my back looking like so bored. There was nothing to do no one was hitting me back Jasper was in the other room bored out of his mind, bu...
