Lyrics
Believe me, if I were a dictator
You know what I'd do?
Come to think of it
There's a problem there
For aspiring tyrants like me and you
Ever wonder what it'd really be like
To be your own dictator
Might be its own kind of prison
Of total fear
Power is boring
Power is boring
Power is boring
And ya know, I wonder how
The downtown crowd can stand themselves
Look sharp
Play to win
Through intimidation
That person at the next desk
Ain't your friend
He's your competitor
The only way to get promoted first
Is to get HIM first
Or else
Hi ho, whaddaya know
They all got the same plan for you
Where do these people go
Between their daily meals of work
Too burnt and stressed
To even think of how to spend the money
No one to show it to
But people just like me - AGH!
Power is boring
Power is boring
Power is boring
Hot damn, we're the headliners at last
Gonna show this scene a thing or two
Play games and help our friends
Now the phone rings all the time
It's all you fault
"You've been crowned king
Of what you used to warn us about"
Why play that game at all?
The ones who want the power THAT bad
Are missing something in their lives
Being scared of my friends
In a junta, scene or business world
Is the most miserable existence
I could think of on earth
Power is boring
Power is boring
Power is boring
