Lyrics

I'm bored to death by all of your new friends

I find your new friends extremely uninteresting and dull.

They've got nice hair and things but

While they may have attractive qualities, such as nice hair and possessions,

They talk about themselves for half

They dominate conversations, spending half the night talking about themselves.

The night

When they discuss their yearly progress or achievements,

When they go on about their annual progression

I remain indifferent until I'm alone.

I don't care until I'm

Truthfully, I only care when I'm by myself.

All alone if truth be told

Being upfront, I admit that confusion is popular nowadays.

Upfront

Confusion is a prevailing trend, but I won't complain about it.

Confusion's all the rage these days

Confusion is currently fashionable, but I can't express discontent.

But I can't

I cannot voice my complaints.

Complain

Despite this, I won't complain.

Woah, I thought that putting elephants in every room

I initially believed that inserting elephants into conversations was clever,

Was clever 'til this

However, a girl discovered her receipt in the recycling bin,

Girl found her receipt in the

Realizing that she would exchange my messages for better ones.

Recycle

This led me to understand that my attempts were futile.

Yeah, I realised then that she'd exchange my messages

She preferred messages from boys who faced a similar fate to mine.

For better ones from

Boys who would encounter a comparable outcome.

Boys who'd meet a similar fate

Confusion is in vogue these days, but I won't complain.

To mine

Confusion is widespread, and others share my fate.

Confusion's all the rage these days

Although confusion is prevalent, I won't express dissatisfaction.

But I can't

I cannot voice my complaints.

Let you hear the things

I won't let you hear things you believed to know without intruding.

You thought you knew

I won't interfere with your understanding; let me handle it on my own.

Without intruding

Leave me to deal with it independently.

So leave me to it

You do your own thing, and I'll handle my own affairs.

And you do you, yeah

You follow your path, and I'll follow mine, embracing individuality.

Ha ha

An expression of laughter, emphasizing the previous statement.

Suppose that I

Consider the possibility that I could return on a different day.

Could come back another day

Perhaps, I'll return when I've formulated what to say.

When I've thought of what to say

After spending time searching for words, I'll return to the conversation.

Been Googling the words all night

I've been searching for words all night, exploring until my mind becomes exhausted.

Perusing 'til my mind expires

Engaging in thorough exploration until my mental energy is depleted.
