lyrics Green Day

All the time
Evertime I need it
What's the time?
I'd say the time is right
Here's to me
Let's find another reason
Down the hatch
And a bad attitude salud



All The Time

All the time
Evertime I need it
What's the time?
I'd say the time is right
Here's to me
Let's find another reason
Down the hatch
And a bad attitude salud

Wasting time, wasting time down a bum fuck road
And I don't know where the hell it'll go
Heirlooms and huffing fumes I'm picking up the pace
And I'm gonna smash it straight into a wall

All the time
A "New Year's Resolution"
How soon that we forget loving every minute
Live it up on another let down salud

Promises, promises, it was all set in stone
Cross my heart and hope to die
Sugar fix, dirty tricks and a trick question
Guess I should have read between the lines

Having the time of my life
Watching the clock tick
Having the time of my life
Watching the clock tick
All the time
Where did all the time go?
It's too late to say goodnight
Time flies when you're having fun
Times up when you work like a dog salud


Basket Case - 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?
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
He said my life is a bore
And quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down

Grasping to control
So you better hold on

Blood, Sex And Booze

(heads down heads down heads down)
(ow)
(you understand me)
(aw shit)

[00:13]Waiting in a room
[00:16]All dressed up and bound and gagged up to a chair
[00:21]It's so unfair
[00:24]I won't dare to move
[00:26]For the pain she puts me through is what I need
[00:31]So make it bleed

[00:34]I'm in distress
[00:37]Oh mistress I confess so do it one more time
[00:41]These handcuffs are to tight
[00:44]Well you know I will obey
[00:47]So please don't make me beg
[00:49]For blood sex and booze you give me

[00:55]Say I'm disturbed
[00:57]It's what I deserve
[01:00]Another lesson to be learned
[01:03]From a girl called kill
[01:10]My head is in the gutter
[01:13]Thank you sir strink up anoher madaolin
[01:18]Of discipline
[01:20]Throw me to the dogs
[01:23]Let them eat my flesh down to the wood
[01:28]It feels so good

[01:32]I'm in distress
[01:34]Oh mistress I confess so do it one more time
[01:38]These handcuffs are to tight
[01:41]Well you know I will obey

[01:46]For blood sex and booze you give me

[01:52]Say I'm disturbed
[01:54]It's what I deserve

[02:01]From a girl called kill (wooh)

[02:21]Oh oh

[02:43]For blood sex and booze you give me

[02:50]Oh oh
[02:54]Oh oh
[03:09]I'll show you a real time

Burnout

I declare I don't care no more
I'm burning up and out and growing BORED
In my smoked out BORING room
My hair is shagging in my eyes
Dragging my feet to hit the street tonight
To drive along these shit town lights

I'm not growing up, I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the DEAD

Apathy has rained on me
Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream
So close to drowning but I DON'T MIND
I've lived in this mental cave
Throw my emotions in the grave
HELL, who needs them anyway

I'm not growing up, I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the DEAD (3x)

Castaway

[00:16]I'm on a sentimental journey into sight and sound

Chump

I don't know you
But, I think I HATE you
You're the reason for my misery
Strange how you've become my biggest enemy
And I've never even seen your face

Maybe it's just jealousy
Mixing up with a VIOLENT mind
A circumstance that doesn't make much SENSE
Or maybe I'm just DUMB

You're the cloud hangin out over my head
Hail comes crashing down welting my face
MAGIC MAN, EGOCENTRIC PLASTIC MAN
Yet you still got one over on me

Maybe it's just jealousy
Mixing up with a VIOLENT mind
A circumstance that doesn't make much SENSE
Or maybe I'm just DUMB

Coming Clean

Seventeen and strung out on confusion
Trapped inside a roll of disillusion
I found out what it takes to be a man
Mom and Dad will never understand

Secrets collecting dust but never forget
SKELETONS come to LIFE in my closet

I found out what it takes to be a man
Mom and Dad will never understand
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME

Seventeen and COMING CLEAN for the first time
I finally figured out myself for the first time
I found out what it takes to be a man
Mom and Dad will never understand
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME

Deadbeat Holiday

[00:07]Wake up the house is on fire
[00:10]And the cat's caught in the dryer
[00:13]Philosophy's a liar when your home is your headstone
[00:19]Icon is the last chance for hope
[00:21]When there's no such think as heroes
[00:24]Your faith lies in he ditch that you dug yourself in

[00:30]Last chance to piss it all away
[00:36]Nothing but hell to pay when the lights are going down

[00:54]Oh deadbeat hoilday
[00:57]Get on your knees and pray
[01:00]There's a vacant sign that's handing high
[01:03]But at least you're not alone

[01:07]The christmas lights in the middle of August
[01:09]Grudges come back to haunt us
[01:12]Your oldest allies are your long lost enemies
[01:18]Grounded in a duplex to find
[01:21]That you're living on a landmine
[01:24]Vacation hotspots is a cemetery drive

[01:30]Last chance to piss it all away

Fashion Victim

[00:13]He's a victim of his own time
[00:16]In his vintage suit and tie
[00:19]He's a casualty dressed to the teeth in the latest genocide
[00:26]Now the new seasons come and go
[00:30]At the dog and pony show
[00:33]Gonna sit and beg and fetch the names and follow your dress codes
[02:43][02:39][02:36][00:39]What's in a name hey

[00:46]She's a scented magazine
[00:49]Looking sharp and living clean
[00:53]Living well and dressed to kill
[00:56]But she looks like hell to me

[01:00]When you're dancing through your wardrobe
[01:03]Do the anorex-a go-go
[01:06]cloaked with style for pedophiles
[01:10]As the credit card explodes

[02:04][01:13]Well you auctioned off your life
[02:07][01:16]For the most expensive price
[02:11][01:20]going once
[02:12][01:22]Going twice it's gone

(The youth Crew)

Well you auctioned off your life (going once)
For the most expensive price (twice it's gone)
Going once
Going twice it's gone

What's in a name hey
What's in a name hey

Geek Stink Breath

I'm on a mission
I made my decision
To lead a path of self destruction
A slow progression
Killing my complexion
And it's rotting out my teeth
I'm on a roll
No self comtrol
I'm blowing off steam with methamphetamine
Don't know what I want
That's all that I've got
And I'm picking scabs off my face
Every hour my blood is turning sour
And my pulse is beating out of time
I found a treasure
filled with sick pleasure
And it sits on a thin white line
I'm on a mission
I got no decision
Like a cripple running the rat race
Wish in one hand shit in the other
And see which one gets filled first

Time Of Your Life

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test and don't ask why
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life
So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

Hitchin' A Ride

Hey mister, where you headed?
Are you in a hurry?
I need a lift to happy hour say oh no
Do you brake for distilled spirits?
I need a break aswell
The well that inebriates the guilt
1,2,1,2,3,4

Cold turkey's getting stale
Tonight I'm eating crow
Fermented salmonella poison oak no
There's a drought at the fountain of youth
And I'm dehydrating
My tongue is swelling up
I say 1,2,1,2,3,4

Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride

There's a drought at the fountain of youth
And now I'm dehydrating
My tongue is swelling up
I say
Shit!

Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride
Hitchin' a ride [*8]

Hold On

[00:14]As I stepped to the edge on the shadow of a doubt
[00:17]With my conscience beating
[00:21]Like the pulse of a drum that hammers on and on
[00:24]'Til I reach the break of day
[00:28]When the sun beats down on the halfway house
[00:31]Has my conscience beating
[00:35]The sound in my ear
[00:37]The will to preserve as I reach the Break of day

[00:41]When you lost all hope and excuses
[00:45]And the Cheapskates and the losers
[00:48]Nothing's left to cling on to
[00:52]You gotta hold on
[00:56]Hold on to yourself

[01:03]A cry of hope (hey)
[01:05]A plea for peace
[01:06]And my conscience beating
[01:10]It's not what I want for it's all that I need
[01:13]To reach the break of day
[01:17]So I run to the edge on the shadow of a doubt
[01:20]With my conscience bleeding
[01:24]Here lies the truth the lost treasures of my youth
[01:27]As I hold on to the break of day

[01:30]When you lost all hope and excuses
[01:34]And the cheapskates and the losers

Jackass

[00:10]Alright
[00:20]To know you is to hate you
[00:22]So loving you must be like suicide
[00:28]Well I don't mind if you don't mind
[00:30]Hell I am not the one that's going to die
[00:34]I guess I just can't listen to this one sided conversation again
[00:45]'Cause I don't care if I don't care
[00:50]Well no one ever said that life is fair

[00:55]Well everybody loves a joke but no one likes a fool
[01:00]And you're always cracking the same old lines again
[01:05]You're well rehearsed on every verse and that was stated clear
[01:11]But no one understands your verity

[01:16]The center of attention
[01:18]Got an honorable mention once again
[01:23]Congratulations and salutations
[01:28]You're a figment of your own imagination

[01:33]well everybody loves a joke but no one likes a fool
[01:38]And you're always cracking the same old lines again
[01:43]You're well rehearsed on every verse and that was stated clear
[01:49]But no one understands your verity

[02:14]To know you is to bait you
[02:16]And you fell victim to your own denial
[02:21]Well I don't mind if you don't mind
[02:26]You're wasting all your time

Longview

Sit around and watch the tube but, nothing's on
Change the channels for an hour or two
Widdle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors
And I'm fucking lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored I'm going BLIND!!!
And I smell like shit

Peel me off this velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a DOG IN HEAT
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to MY OWN CELL
And I lost the key

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind!!!
And I smell like shit

I GOT NO MOTIVATION
WHERE IS MY MOTIVATION
NO TIME FOR MOTIVATION
SMOKING MY INSPIRATION

Sit around and watch the phone but no one's calling
Call me pathetic call me WHAT YOU WILL
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one SHE's got
When masturbation's lost its fun
You're fucking breaking

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn BORED I'm going blind
And loneliness has to suffice
Bit my lip and close my eyes
Slipping away to paradise
Some say, "Quit or I'll go BLIND"
But it's just a myth

Macy's Day Parade

Today's the Macy's Day Parade
The night of the living dead is on its way
With a credit report for duty call
It's a lifetime guarantee
Stuffed in a coffin 10 percent more free
Red light special at the mausoleum

Give me a something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed to you
What's the consolation prize
economy sized dreams of hope

When I was a kid I thought
I wanted all the things that I haven't got
Oh but I learned the hardest way
Then I realized what it took
To tell the difference between thieves and crooks
A lesson learned and me and you

Give me something that I need
Satisfaction guarantee
'Cause I'm thinking about a brand new hope
The one I've never known
'Cause now I know it's all that I wanted

What's the consolation prize
economy sized dreams of hope
give me something that I need
Satisfaction guaranteed
'Cause I'm thinking about a brand new hope
The one I've never known
And where it goes
And I'm thinking about the only road
The one I've never known and where it goes

And I'm thinking about a brand new hope
The one I've never known
'Cause now I know it's all that I wanted

Minority

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority

I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog
There of which I stand alone

Misery

[00:28]Virginia was a lot lizard from F.L.A.
[00:34]She had a compound fracture in the trunk
[00:40]It started when she ran away
[00:43]Thumbs out on the interstate
[00:46]She hitched a ride to misery

[00:52]Mr. Whirly had a catastrophic incident
[00:58]He fell into the city by the bay
[01:04]He liquidated his estate
[01:07]Now he sleeps upon the Haight
[01:10]panhandling misery

[01:15]And he's gonna get high 'igh 'igh
[01:19]When he's low low low
[01:22]The fire burns from better days
[01:27]And she screams why oh why
[01:30]I said I don't know
[01:33]The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
[01:39]Of misery

[01:46]Well Vinnie was a hustler out of Amsterdam
[01:51]He ran the drug cartel in Tinseltown
[01:57]They found him in a cadillac
[02:00]Bludgeoned with a baseball bat
[02:03]In the name of misery

[02:09]And Gina hit the road to New York CIty
[02:15]Mysteriously the night Vinnie croaked
[02:21]She stopped in Vegas to elope
[02:24]With Virginia and the dope
[02:27]And kissed the bride eternally

[02:32]And they're gonna get high 'igh 'igh
[02:36]When they're low low low
[02:39]The fire burns from better days
[02:44]And he screamed why oh why
[02:48]I said I don't know
[02:51]The catastrophic hymns from yesterday
[02:56]Of misery

[03:03]Well hell hounds on your trail now once again boy
[03:09]It's groping on your leg until it sleeps
[03:15]The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrow
[03:21]'Cause it's not what you make it's what you leave

[04:20]And we're gonna get high 'igh 'igh
[04:24]When we're low low low
[04:26]The fire burns for better days
[04:32]And she screamed why oh why
[04:35]I said I don't know
[04:38]The catastophic hymns from yesterday
[04:47]Of misery
A face in the crowd
Unsung, against the mold
Without a doubt
Singled out
The only way I know, cause

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Casue I want to be the minority

Stepped out of the line
Like a sheep runs from the herd
Marching out of time
To my own beat now
The only way I know
One light, one mind
Flashing in the dark
Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
"For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
A free for all
F*** 'em all
You are your own sight, cause

I want to be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I want to be the minority

One light, one mind
Flashing in the dark
Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
"For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
A free for all
F*** 'em all
You are your own sight, cause

Pulling Teeth

I'm all busted up
Broken bones & nasty cuts
ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN
But this time I can't get up
She comes to check on me
MAKING sure I'm on my knees
After all she's the one who put me in this state
.
Is she ULTRA-VIOLENT?
Is she DISTURBED?
I better tell her that I LOVE her
Before she does it all over again
OH GOD, SHE'S KILLING ME!!!

For now I'll lie around
HELL, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my LOVE is TRUE
.
Is she ULTRA-VIOLENT?
Is she DISTURBED?
I better tell her that I LOVE her
Before she does it all over again
OH GOD, SHE'S KILLING ME!!!

Looking out my window for
Someone that's passing by
No one knows I'm LOCKED in here
All I do is cry

For now I'll lie around
HELL, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my LOVE is TRUE
back to top


She
She, she screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with the brick of self control

Are you locked up in a world
That's been planned out for you?
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you

She, she's figured out
That all her doubts are someone else's point of view
Waking up this time
To smash the silence with the brick of self control

Waiting

[00:01]I've been waiting a long time
[00:03]For this moment to come
[00:06]I'm destined for anything at all

[00:14]Downtown lights will be shining
[00:17]On me like a new diamond
[00:21]Ring out under the midnight hour
[00:28]No one can touch me now
[00:30]And I can't turn my back
[00:34]It's too late ready or not at all

[00:41]Well I'm so much closer than I have ever known...
[00:48]Wake up

[00:52]Dawning of a new era
[00:55]Calling...Don't let it catch you falling
[01:01]Ready or not at all
[01:06]So close enough to taste it
[01:09]Almost I can embrace this
[01:13]Feeling...On the tip of my tongue

[01:19]Well I'm so much closer than I have ever known...
[01:26]Wake up
[01:33]Better thank your lucky stars

[01:54]Well I'm so much closer than I have ever known...
[02:03]Wake up
[02:10]Better thank your lucky stars

[02:24]I've been waiting a lifetime
[02:28]For this moment to come
[02:30]I'm destined for anything at all

[02:40]Dumbstruck color me stupid
[02:44]Good luck ! You're gonna need it
[02:47]Where I'm going if I get there at all
[03:00]Better thank your lucky stars

Walking Contradiction

Do as I say not as I do because
The shit so deep, you can't run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet is fat and so is my head
Hit and run and now I'll hit you again
I'm a smart ass but I'm playing dumb

Standard's set and broken all the time
Control the chaos behind the gun
Call it as I see it even if
I was born deaf, blind, and dumb
Loser's winning big on the lottery
Rehab rejects still sniffing glue
Constant refutation with myself
I'm a victim of catch 22

I have no belief
But I believe
I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right

Do as I say not as I do because
The shit so deep, you can't run away
I beg to differ on the contrary
I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
My wallet is fat and so is my head
Hit and run and now I'll hit you again
I'm a smart ass but I'm playing dumb

"Warning"

This is a public service announcment
This is only a test
Emergency evacuation protest
May impair your ability to operate machinery
Can¹t quite tell, just waht it means to me
Keep out of reach of children
Don¹t talk to strangers
Get your philosophy from a bumper sticker

Warning: Live without warning, i sad
Warning: Live without warning, without, allright

Better homes and safety-sealed communities?
Did you remember to pay the utility?
Caution: police line: you better not cross
Is it the Cop or am I the one that`s really dangerous?
Sanitation, Expiration date, Question Everything?
Or shut up and be the victim of authority

Welcome to Paradise

Dear mother, can you hear me whining
It's been three whole weeks since I have left your home
This sudden fear has left me trembling
'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feeling so alone

Pay attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes
Some call it slums and some call it nice
I want to take you through the waste land
That I like to call my home
Welcome to paradise

A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reasons it's now feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go

Dear mother, can you hear me laughing
It's been six whole months since I have left your home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go


When I Come Around

I heard you crying loud, all the way across town
'Cause you been searching for that someone
And it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself

Well, don't get lonely now, and dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazin' my back yard so don't get
So uptight you been thinking about ditching me

1-No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around

Well, I heard it all before, so don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and a user so I don't need no accuser
To try and slag me down because I know you're right

So go do what you like, make sure you do it wise
You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing
Was ever there
You can't go forcing something if it's just not right
(rpt 1, 1)

When I come around...
