Green Day - International Superhits! [compilation] (2001) by Green Day (보컬) on maniadb.com

She smashed the radio with the board of education
Turn up the static left of the state of the nation

Turn up the flame, step on the gas
Burning the flag at half mast
She's a rebel's forgotten son
An export of the revolution

She is the first voice of the last ones in the line
she'll drag the lake to keep the vendetta alive

Bring in the head of the government
The dog ate the document
Someboby shot the President
And no one knows where Maria went?

Maria, Maria, Maria,
where did you go?...

Be careful what you're offering
Your breath lacks the conviction
Drawing the line in the dirt
Because the last decision
...is no.

Wherever you go, you know I'll be there
If you go far, you know I'll be there
I'll go anywhere, so I'll see you there
You name the time you know I'll be there
I'll go anywhere, so I'll see you there

I don't care if you don't mind
I'll be there not far behind
I will dare, Keep in mind
I'll be there for you

Where there's the truth,
you know I'll be there
Amongst the lies.
you know I'll be there
I'll go anywhere,
so I'll see you there

If you should fall, you know I'll be there
To catch the call, you know I'll be there
I'll go anywhere, So I'll see you there

Sit around and watch the tube but, nothing's on
Change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle 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

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 lonliness has to suffice
Bite my lip and close my eyes
slipping away to paradise
Some say "quit or I'll go blind"
But it's just a myth

Dear mother,
Can you hear me whining?
It's been three whole weeks
Since that 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 the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland 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 reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go

* Repeat

Dear mother,
Can you hear me laughing
It's been six whole months since
Since that 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

* Repeat

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's a bored
And quit my whining cause it's bringing her down

* Repeat

Grasping to control
So you better hold on

* Repeat

I heard you crying loud
All the way across town
You've been searching for that someone
And it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling
Sorry for yourself
Don't get lonely now
Dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazin' my backyard
So don't get so uptight
You been thinking about ditching me

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

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 slag me down
Because I know I'm 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

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's figured out all her doubts
Were someone else's point of view
Walking up this time to smash the silence
With the brick of self-control

My friend drove off the other day.
And now he's gone and all they say.
Is you gotta live 'cause life goes on
But now I see I'm mortal too
I can't live my life like you
Gotta live it up while life goes on
And I think it's alright
That I do what I like
'cause that's the way I wanna live
It's how I give
And I'm still giving

And now I wonder about my friend
If he gave all he could give
'Cause he lived his life like I live mine
If you could see inside my head
Then you'd start to understand
The things I value in my heart
You know that.
I know that.
You're watching me

Gotta make a plan
Gotta do what's right
can't run around in circles
If you wanna build a life
but I don't wanna make a plan
For a day far away
While I'm young and while I'm able
All I wanna do is....

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
Mo self-control
I'm blowing off steam with
Meth amphetamine
don't know what I wnat
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 thick white line
I'm on a mission
I got no decision like a cripple
Running the rat race
Wish in one hand and shit in the other
And see which one gets filled first

I'm having trouble trying to sleep
I'm counting sheep but running out
As time ticks by
And still I try
No rest for crosstops in my mind

On my own... here we go

My eyes feel like they're going to bleed
Dried up and bulging out my skull
My mouth is dry
My face is numb
Fucked up and spun out in my room

On my own... here we go

My mind is set on overdrive
The clock is laughing in my face
A crooked spine
My sense dulled
Passed the point of delirium

On my own... here we go

Somebody keep my balance
I think I'm falling off
Into a state of regression
The expiration date
Rapidly coming up
It's leaving me behind to rank
Always move forward
Going "straight" will get you nowhere
There is no progress
Evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhere
I'm taking one step sideways
Leading with my crutch
Got a fucked up equilibrium
count down from 9 to 5
Hooray! We're gonna die!
Blessed into our extinction

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's fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
I'm a smart-ass but I'm playing dumb
Standards set and broken all the time
Control the chaos behind a gun
Call it as I see it even if
I was born deaf, blind and dumb
Losers winning big on the lottery
Rehab rejects still sniffing glue
Constant refutation with myself
I'm a victim of a catch 22
I have no belief
But I believe
I'm a walking contradiction
And I ain't got no right

I'm not part of your elite
I'm just alright
Class structure waving colors
Bleeding from my throat
Not subservient to you I'm just alright
Down classed by the powers that be
Give me loss of hope

Cast out... Buried in a hole
Struck down... forcing me to fall
Destroyed... giving up the fight

I know I'm not alright
What's my price and will you pay it
If it's alright?
Take it from my dignity
Waste it until it's dead
Throw me back into the gutter
'Cause it's alright

Find another pleasure fucker
Drag them down to hell

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 as well
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 now I'm dehydrating
My tongue is swelling up
As say 1, 2. 1, 2, 3, 4
Troubled times
You know I can not 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!

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 is 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
I hope you had the time of your life

We're living in repetition.
Content in the same old shtick again.
Now the routine's turning to contention.
Like a production line going.
Over and over and over, roller coaster.

Now I cannot speak.
I lost my voice.
I'm speechless and redundant.
'Cause I love you's not enough.
I'm lost for words.
Choreographed and lack of passion.
Prototypes of what we were.
Went full circle 'til I'm nauseous.
Taken for granted now.
Now I waste it, faked it.
Ate it, now I hate it.
Now I cannot speak.
I lost my vice.
I'm speechless and redundant
'Cause I love you's not enough.
I'm lost for words.
Now I cannot speak.

Nice guys finish last.
You're running out of gas.
Your sympathy will get you left behind.
Sometimes you're at your best.
When you look the worst.
Do you feel washed up.
Like piss going down the drain?

Pressure cooker pick my brain
And tell me I'm insane.
I'm so fucking happy I could cry.
Every joke can have its truth
And now the joke's on you.
I never knew you were such a funny guy.

Oh nice guys finish last.
When you are the outcast.
Don't pat yourself on the back.
You might break your spine.

Living on command.
You're shaking lots of hands.
Kissing up and bleeding all your trust.
Taking what you need.
Bite the hand that feeds.
You kill your memory.

I want to be the minority
I dont 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
a face in the crowd
unsung, against the mold
without a doubt,
singled out
the only way I know

I want to be the minority
I dont need your authority
down with the moral majority
'cause 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 silence of a thousand broken hearts
"for crying out loud" she screamed unto me
a free for all
fuck'em all
"you are your own sight"

I want to be the minority
I dont need your authority
down with the moral majority
'cause I want to be the minority

This is a public service announcement
this is only a test
emergency evacuation protest
may impair your ability to operate machinery
can't quite tell just what it means to me
keep out of reach of children
Don't talk to strangers
get your philosophy from a bumper sticker

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

I¹ve been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come
I¹m destined
For anything...at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like a diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
No one can touch me now
And I can¹t turn my back
It¹s too late ready or not at all

I¹m so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up

Dawning of a new era
Calling...don¹t let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Alomost...I can embrace this
Feeling....on the tip of my tongue

I¹m so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up
Better thank your lucks stars....

I¹ve been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come
I¹m destined for anything at all

Dumbstruck
Colour me stupid
Good luck
You¹re gonna need it
Where I¹m going if I get there...
At all....

Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars
