Buzzcocks

Not feeling so bored anymore but I saw the Buzzcocks last night and they were well beyond my expectations. On fire. So in tribute to them, I present their take on the subject to follow on from yesterday's Iggy Pop post. (I especially like the line about "I live in this movie, but it doesn't move me." God bless you Howard Devoto!)

"Boredom"

Yeah - well - I say what I mean
I say what comes to my mind
I never get around to things
I live a straight - straight line

You know me - I'm acting dumb
you know the scene - very humdrum
boredom - boredom

I'm living in this movie
but it doesn't move me
I'm the man that's waiting for the phone to ring
Hear it ring-a-ding-a-f***ing-ding

You know me ...

You see there's nothing behind me
I'm already a has-been
my future ain't what it was
well I think I know the words that I mean

You know me ...

B'dum - b'dum

I've taken this extravagant journey
so it seems to me
I just came from nowhere
and I'm going straight back there

You know me ...

So I'm living in this movie
but it doesn't move me
so tell me who are you trying to arouse?
get your hands out of my trousers

You know me ...
