Father John Misty - Bored In The USA lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

How many people rise and say

My brain’s so awfully glad 2 be here for yet anotha mindless day?

Now I've got all mornin' to obsessively accrue

A small nation o' meaningful objects

They have got to represent me to

By this afternoon I will live in debt

By tomorrow be replaced by children

(Verse 2)

How many people rise and think

Oh good, the stranger’s body’s still here,

Our arrangement hasn’t changed?

I have got a lifetime 2 consider all the ways

I grow more disappointin' 2 ya as my beauty warps 'n fades

I suspect you feel the same

When I was young I dreamt of a passionate obligation 2 a roommate

(Bridge)

Is this the part where I get all I ever wanted?

Who said that? Can I get my money back?

(Chorus)

Just a lil bored in the U.S.A.

Just a lil bored in the U.S.A.

Save me white Jesus! Bored in the U.S.A.

Oh

(Verse 3)

They gave me a useless education

& sub-prime loan, a craftsman home

Keep my prescriptions filled

& now I can’t get off

But I can kind of deal

Oh, with bein'

(Chorus)

Bored in the U.S.A.

Oh, just a lil bored in the U.S.A.

Save me, president Jesus!

I’m bored in the U.S.A.

How did it happen?

Bored in the U.S.A.

Oh
