JESUS OF SUBURBIA
I'm the son of rage and love
The Jesus of suburbia
From the bible of none of the above
On a steady diet of soda pop and Ritalin
No one ever died for my sins in hell
As far as I can tell
At least the ones I got away with
And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don't believe in me
Get my television fix sitting on my crucifix
The living room or my private womb
While the moms and brads are away
To fall in love and fall in debt
To alcohol and cigarettes and Mary Jane
To keep me insane and doing someone else's cocaine
And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don't believe in me

[Part 2: City Of The Damned]
At the center of the Earth
In the parking lot
Of the 7-11 were I was taught
The motto was just a lie
It says home is where your heart is
But what a shame
Cause everyone's heart
Doesn't beat the same
It's beating out of time
City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care
I read the graffiti
In the bathroom stall
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall
And so it seemed to confess
It didn't say much
But it only confirmed that
The center of the earth
Is the end of the world
And I could really care less
City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to careeeeee

[Part 3: I don't care]
I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't care
[x4]
I don't careeeeeeeeee
Everyone is so full of shit
Born and raised by hypocrites
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle to the grave
We are the kids of war and peace
From Anaheim to the middle east
We are the stories and disciples
Of the Jesus of suburbia
Land of make believe
And it don't believe in me
Land of make believe
And I don't believe
And I don't care!
I don't care! [x4]

[Part 4: Dearly beloved]
Dearly beloved are you listening?
I can't remember a word that you were saying
Are we demented or am I disturbed?
The space that's in between insane and insecure
Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed
Nobody's perfect and I stand accused
For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse

[Part 5: Tales of another broken home]
To live and not to breathe
Is to die In tragedy
To run, to run away
To find what you believe
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fucking lies
I lost my faith to this
This town that don't exist
So I run
I run away
To the light of masochist
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fucking lies
And I walked this line
A million and one fucking times
But not this time
I don't feel any shame
I won't apologize
When there ain't nowhere you can go
Running away from pain
When you've been victimized
Tales from another broken home
You're leaving...
You're leaving...
You're leaving...
Ah you're leaving home...



AMERICAN IDIOT
Don´t want to be an American idiot.
Don´t want a nation under the new media.
And can you hear the sound of hysteriea?
The subliminal mind fuck America
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
Where everything isn´t meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We´re not the ones meant to follow.
For that´s enough to argue.
Well Maybe I am the faggot, America.
I´m not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
Where everything isn´t meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We´re not the ones meant to follow.
For that´s enough to argue.
Don´t wanna be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria
Calling out to idiot America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
Where everything isn´t meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We´re not the ones meant to follow.
For that´s enough to argue.



WAKE ME UP WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDS
Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.
Like my father´s come to pass,
Seven years has gone so fast.
Wake me up when September ends.
Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars.
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up when September ends.
Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.
Ring out the bells again.
Like we did when spring began.
Wake me up when September ends.
Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars.
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.
As my memory rest,
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up when September ends.
Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.
Like my father´s come to pass.
Twenty years has gone so fast.
Wake me up when September ends.[x3]



OUTSIDER
I´m an outsider outside of everything
I´m an outsider outside of everything
I´m an outsider outside of everything
Everything you know Everything you know
It disturbs me so
Everybody tried to push me push me around
Everybody tried to put me try to put me down
All messed up, hey everyone I´ve already had
All my fun more troubles are gonna come
I´ve already had all my fun
I´m an outsider outside of everything
I´m an outsider outside of everything
I´m an outsider outside of everything
Everything you know Everything you know
It disturbs me so



BOULEVARD OF BROKEN DREAMS
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don´t know where it goes
But it´s home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I´m the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadow´s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart´s the only thing that´s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
´Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah,
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah
I´m walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What´s fucked up and everything´s alright
Check my vital signs
To know I´m still alive and I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
My shadow´s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart´s the only thing that´s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
´Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
I walk alone
I walk a...
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I´m the only one and I walk a...
My shadow´s the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart´s the only thing that´s beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
´Til then I walk alone...



BASKET CASE
Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I´m cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or I´m just stoned
I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it´s lack of sex
That´s bringing me down
I went to a whore
She said my life´s a bore
So quit my whining cause
It´s bringing her down
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I´m cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Uh, yuh, yuh, ya
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I´m cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or I´m just stoned



HOLIDAY
Say, hey!
Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)
The shame
The ones who died without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!)
And bleed, the company lost the war today
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protester has crossed the line (Hey!)
To find, the money´s on the other side
Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)
There´s a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey!)
A gag, a plastic bag on a monument
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
(Hey!)
(Say, hey!)
(3,4)
"The representative from California has the floor"
Sieg Heil to the president Gasman
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel towers
Who criticize your government
Bang bang goes the broken glass and
Kill all the fags that don´t agree
Trials by fire, setting fire
Is not a way that´s meant for me
Just cause, just cause, because we´re outlaws yeah!
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday
