Well, I don't spend any time
In that corner of the room
'Cause it's too close to the door
And I'm sure you'll come knockin'
Soon enough to feed me a line

About all the things you have to do
You know, I have things to do too
You're not the only one who has to do them
(Uh, uh)

So I'll lay here for awhile
Then finally get on my feet
I start to shuffle down the street
I stuck my tongue inside my cheek

Before I pulled up a seat
At that lousy corner bar
Where all the showoff Bedford artists
Sit discussing who they are

I'm getting bored of being bored
I need attention, I feel ignored

That's right

Well I can't take it anymore
I kick my stool and slam the door
If there's a remedy for this
I'm sure I probably can't afford it
But I'll try anything

At that time I had a foolish plan
To mouth off to a polish man
And have him kick my teeth in

Just for something to do
I might have a problem
I need a clue

Well when I finally got back up
I cracked a smile and dusted off
And then I smoked another cigarette
And threw it at my silhouette

I should call it a day
Maybe come up with something else
That might be better for my self-esteem
Or better for my health

I'm just so bored of being bored
I need some attention, I feel ignored
