[Verse 1]

Yeah, well, I say what I mean

I say what comes to my mind

Because I never get around to things

I live a straight, straight line


[Chorus]

You know me, I'm acting dumb

You know the scene, very humdrum

Boredom, boredom

Boredom


[Verse 2]

And now, I'm living in this movie

But it doesn't move me

And I've been waiting for the phone to ring

Hear it ring-a-ring-a-ring, a fucking thing


[Chorus]

You know me, I'm acting dumb

You know the scene, very humdrum

Boredom, boredom

Boredom


[Verse 3]

You see, there's nothing that's behind me

I'm already a has-been, uh

Because my future ain't what it was

Well, I think I know the words that I mean


[Chorus]

You know me, I'm acting dumb

You know the scene, very humdrum

Boredom, boredom

B'dum, b'dum


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 4]

I'm takin' this extravagant journey

Or so it seems to me

I just, uh, came from nowhere

And I'm going straight back there


[Chorus]

You know me, I'm acting dumb, dumb

You know the scene, very humdrum

Boredom, boredom


[Verse 5]

You see, I'm living in this, uh, movie

But it doesn't move me

So tell me, who are you tryna arouse?

Get your hand out of my trousers


[Chorus]

You know me, I'm acting dumb-dumb

You know the scene, very humdrum, drum

Boredom, boredom

Ah
