The Lyrics

Wrote this in May of 2020 a few days after getting laid off, completing my Pandemic Bingo card.
Bored 'round in a dead downtown
The first drink I took was when we hit lockdown
You start some silly blog and you eat too much
Then you spend half the day dressed from the waist up.

Bored in the U.S.A.
I've been bored in the U.S.A.
I've been bored in the U.S.A.
Bored in the U.S.A.

Got in an unemployment jam
So I get my cash from Uncle Sam
Start each day without any plan
Sleep in late just because I can

Bored in the U.S.A.
I've been bored in the U.S.A.
I've been bored in the U.S.A.
I've been bored in the U.S.A.
Bored in the U.S.A.

Stuck at home I miss the finer things
Entire family fought over watching TV
Went downstairs, played nintendo and
I said "Son, you don't understand"

I have a brother, bought Boardwalk
Fighting lasted 20 months
They're still there, that game's gone

I know a woman she loves her Salon
She's protesting so she can get her nails done

Drownin' my sorrows in beer from the brewery
I'm buying gas to fuel the economy
Been in tears since my income slowed
Nowhere for fun, every place I know's closed.

Bored in the U.S.A.
I've been bored in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I've long gone crazy in the U.S.A.
Bored in the U.S.A.
Bored in the U.S.A.
Bored in the U.S.A.
I'm a fool going batty in the U.S.A.
