[VERSE]
Sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on
I change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors
D5
And I'm fucking lazy
[CHORUS]
B5 A5 E5 B5
Bite my lip and close my eyes
A5 E5 B5
Take me away to paradise
A5 E5 B5
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind
A5 E5
And I smell like shit
[VERSE]
Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell
D5
And I lost the key

[CHORUS]
B5 A5 E5 B5
Bite my lip and close my eyes
A5 E5 B5
Take me away to paradise
A5 E5 B5
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind
A5 E5
And I smell like shit
[BRIDGE]
E5 D5
I got no motivation
E5 D5
Where is my motivation?
E5 D5
No time for the motivation
E5 D5 B5 A5 E5 B5 A5 E5
Smoking my inspiration
[VERSE]
Sit around and watch the phone, but no one's calling
Call me pathetic, call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When masturbation's lost its fun
D5
You're fucking lonely
[CHORUS]
B5 A5 E5 B5
Bite my lip and close my eyes
A5 E5
Take me away to paradise
B5 A5
I'm so damn bored
E5 B5
I'm going blind
A5 E5
And loneliness has to suffice
B5 A5 E5 B5
Bite my lip and close my eyes
A5 E5
I was slipping away to paradise
B5 A5 E5 B5
Some say, "Quit or I'll go blind."
A5 E5
But it's just a myth
