A heartfelt nerd anthem for everyone out there who is bored. Pardon the f-bombs, they were part of the boredom. Recorded and mixed at home because this was 2020. Synths are mostly Arturia Analog Lab plus some Logic Pro X mainstays like Alchemy. Mic was an AKG C414.
Bored
Out of my fucking head
Out of my fucking head
Drank all of the white wine
Time to start on the red
I’m bored
Out of my fucking mind
Everywhere all of the time (24/7)
‘Cause every day’s
Just like the one before
I’m bored
Music was a drug it doesn’t work anymore
Booze it was a drug it doesn’t work anymore
Fake news it was a drug it doesn’t work anymore
Self abuse it was a drug it doesn’t work anymore
My computer was a drug It doesn’t work anymore
Loving you it was a drug It doesn’t work anymore
it doesn’t work anymore It doesn’t work anymore
it doesn’t work anymore It doesn’t work anymore
it doesn’t…
make me wanna call my family
make me wanna see my friends
I just wanna sit here quietly
while the whole world ends
The new prescription isn’t working for me
Can’t get myself up off the ground
Guess it’s just the same old story
Just another white man down
and yes, I listened to your podcast
and no it didn’t change my life
I guess I couldn’t get past
The static on his desktop mic
Maybe I’m narcissistic
maybe I’m psycho too
I had my chance, I guess I missed it
Maybe I’ve been missing you
I turn it up
I turn it down
I take a step
Turn back around
I go to work
I go to bed
I go to war
Hoping they’ll shoot me dead
and when I rise
and take a knee
before the Lord
he’ll ask why
i wasted my life
and I’ll tell him I was
Bored
