'it's tiresome' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'bee to go round and round' is the wordplay.
'bee' becomes 'b'.
'to' says to put letters next to each other.
'go round' becomes 'ring' (synonyms. I am not sure about the 'go' bit.).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'round' becomes 'o' (round can mean a round object).
'ring' put after 'o' is 'oring'.
'b' put next to 'oring' is 'BORING'.

'for a' acts as a link.
