I'm Bored

I'm Bored
Played in	The Rhythm and Roots of Arthur

I'm Bored is a song by D.W. and David in "The Rhythm and Roots of Arthur." D.W. sings it while driving with her family to Ohio.

Lyrics

D.W.: I'm stuck inside this car
on a trip to somewhere far

This highway keeps on going
Cars and trucks with trailers towing

Only one small lane is open--
see look, the road is broken

I'm bored, I'm bored
I'm bored, I'm bored, I'm bored
I'm so bored, are we there yet?

David: Not yet!

But we're really cruising now

Let's play I Spy--I spy a cow

(cow mooing)

Isn't that exciting?
Hey, can you guys please stop fighting?

D.W.: I'm bored, I'm bored
I'm bored, I'm bored, I'm bored
I'm so bored, are we there yet?

The signs say stop and eat
I need to get out of my seat

This road will never end
Hey! What's that around the bend?

(bell dinging, record scratch)

D.W.: Ugh!

I'm bored, I'm bored
I'm bored, I'm bored, I'm bored
I'm so bored, are we there yet?

David: Not yet.

Hey look, we're in Ohio!

Just a couple hours more

We're still on Route 224

Would you like to see the map?

D.W.: But I can't read--is this a trap?

It looks like noodles with some dots
Is that a lake? We must be lost

Ohio's way too big
Way too flat and way too far

Please, oh please, oh please
Just let me get out of this car

I'm going crazy in this maze
All these detours and delays

David: Why don't you take a nap?

D.W.: I'm not tired, here's the map

David: Just try counting all those sheep
That will help you fall asleep

(sheep bleating)

D.W.: One, two, three, four... (snoring)
