I wash my car out of boredom, I eat out of boredom
I love my life
I hear terrifying news and I know the world is going crazy
I get excited every sunday when my love shows up for a ride
And it feels so cozy and so right
When tedium, tedium is by my side

When we are born, we're born with tears in our eyes
We go to school and we ask why, tell me why

[Chorus]
Dying, dying, dying in slow motion
It feels like crying, crying, crying in the rain
Dying, dying, dying in slow motion
I hope my life was good enough to entertain

She starts to work every monday, she rests on a sunday
She loves her life
She heard, the buisness of her neighbour's wife is kind of shady
She earns her money as a clearer
She's happy when the laundry dries
And she feel so happy and so right
When tedium, tedium is on her side

[Chorus]

When we are born, we're born with tears in our eyes
We go to school and we ask why, tell me why
We go to work, life's passing by, it's passing by
We're getting old and mortified, too weak to say goodbye

Dying, dying, dying...
Crying, crying, crying...

[Chorus]
