(Bass and Drums, No Guitar)
[Verse 1]
I sit around and watch the tube but nothing's on.
I change the channel's for an hour or two.
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit.
I'm sick of all the same old shit.
In the house with unlocked doors and I'm fucking lazy.

[Chorus]
         
    Bite my li

          
p and close my

 
 eyes.
           
Take me away t

  
o paradise.
           
    I'm so dam

         
n bored I'm go

          
ing blind and 

             
I smell like s

#
hit.

(Armstrong then plays D#5 once before Dirnt's bass part)

(Bass and Drums, No Guitar)
[Verse 2]
Peel me off this Velcrow 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've locked the doors to my own cell and I've lost the key.

(Armstrong plays the C#5 until the chorus)

[Chorus]
         
    Bite my li

          
p and close my

 
 eyes.
           
Take me away t

  
o paradise.
           
    I'm so dam

         
n bored I'm go

          
ing blind and 

             
I smell like s

#
hit.

[Bridge]
         
I've got no mo


tivation.
         
Where is my mo


tivation?
         
No time for mo


tivation.
        
Smoking my ins

                     
pi-ration.

(Bass and Drums, No Guitar)
[Verse 3]
I sit around and watch the phone
But no ones 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 you're fucking lonely.

(Armstrong plays the C#5 until the chorus)

[Chorus 2]
         
    Bite my li

          
p and close my

 
 eyes.
           
Take me away t

  
o paradise.
           
    I'm so dam

         
n bored I'm go

   
ing blind
           
And lonliness 

    
has to subside

.
         
    Bite my li

          
p and close my

 
 eyes.
              
Slowly slippin

       
g away to para

dise.
           
    Some say "

        
Quit, or I'll 

           
go blind" but 

            
it's just a my
