Im Bored

...I'M BORED... by Bonzo Dog Doodah Band

*from 'Gorilla' (1967)*

(Original Key: Eb)

Intro:

Eb7, G7, C

Verse 1:

At the local dance, whilst posing by the door,

A lady begged; "Would I come on the floor?"

A-bove the band, my voice was heard,

Quite suddenly, it had occurred, to me...I'm bored!

Chorus 1:

I'm bored, with everything I touch and see,

I'm bored, with expo-ses of LSD.

I'm bored with Frank Sinatra's new LP,

And so I roar...(shoo-be-do-be-do); I'm bored.

Interlude:

Verse 2:

Drinking different coloured wines or beers, (chug-a-lug-chug-a-lug),

Just quite frankly leaves me bored to, tears for souvenirs...

And quite apart from what one hears,

I've been like this for years and years, you see?...en-nui.

Chorus 2:

I'm bored, with Mother Nature or her son,

I'm bored, with every-thing that should be done.

And so, I just poke out my big red tongue and...

(*Raspberry*)...I'm bored.

Bridge 1:

I'm tired of art! (Drawing bored),

Sex is a drag! (In a boreding house, I daresay).

Awk! Australians bore me! (You mean the A-bore-iginals, don't you?)

(n.C)

I'm bored to death! (Like mortar bored!)

Break:

(n.C)

I am bored, I am bored...

(Repeat many times, in a Round)

(n.C)

This is boredom you can afford from Cyril Bored.

Interlude:

Verse 3:

I hate each Julie Andrews film they've made,

I'm just a nasty, narrow-minded jade.

Don't think that I will smile at it;

I'm not a weak-willed hypocrite, I'll say... I'm bored!

Chorus 3:

I'm bored, with with-it men in spotty ties,

Who hum, (Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm), tiresome tunes like Edelweiss.

I'm bored, and when I hear it in a trice, I shout; I'm bored!

Coda:

The only thing that ever interests me...

Is ME! (Me! Me! Me! Me!)...

(Repeat 'me's' to Fade)
