Ode to the Modern Artist (Bored) lyrics

by

Madilyn Mei


Everything I do is new until it’s not
Everything I make is fresh until it rots
I just wanna write a song that I forget each time it ends
So every time I hit repeat, it’d be like the first time again

Maybe I get bored a little too soon for my own good
But I'm being spoon fed instant gratification
Every creation is overplayed before it’s even finished

I'm getting bored of this chorus I'm playing
I’ll change up the chord so it’s not the same as the last line
Throw in a key change, mental stimulation
Play me something that I’ve never heard before

Maybe I get bored a little too soon for my own good
But we’re being spoon fed into over consumption
Waiting for nothing, attention span gone
I forget what I’ve been waiting for
If I have to wait a moment or two or three more
I'm being spoon fed instant gratification
Every creation is over promoted
Not to sugarcoat it but-

I'm bored of the key I was in just now
The concept of this song was not original
But maybe how I'm going about it
Is new to a handful of ears
And they’ll love it
And they’ll have on loop 'til they're bored
Order merch, have it sent straight to the second hand store
I am turning into PG Bo Burnham for reasons I dont know
I think It’s because I got bored of my previous style
What if after a while, no one really listens to me anymore?
We’re right back where we started
Reinvent the wheel 1000 times
Will I make it as an artist?
Or will I bore them all before I reach my prime

There’s only so many ways to write, to strum, to rhyme
(Everything I do is- everything I do is-)
Only so many hooks and melodies to score
(Everything I do is- everything I do is-)
Only so many ways to make my music mine
(Everything I do is- everything I do is-)
To reignite the love we have for art 'til we get bored
