Bored in the USA

How many people rise and say

"My brain's so awfully glad to be here for yet another mindless day

Now, I've got all morning to obsessively accrue

A small nation of meaningful objects and they've gotta represent me too

By this afternoon, I'll live in debt

And by tomorrow, be replaced by children?"

How many people rise and think

"Oh good, the stranger's body's still here,

our arrangement hasn't changed

Now, I've got a lifetime to consider all the ways

I grow more disappointing to you

As my beauty warps and fades

And I suspect you feel the same

When I was young, I dreamt of a passionate obligation to a roommate?"

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

Who said that?

Can I get my money back?

Just a little bored in the USA

Oh, just a little bored in the USA

Save me, white Jesus

Bored in the USA

Oh, they gave me a useless education

And a subprime loan on a craftsman home

Keep my prescriptions filled

And now I can't get off

But I can kind of deal

Oh, with being

Bored in the USA

Oh, just a little bored in the USA

Save me, President Jesus

I'm bored in the USA

How did it happen?
