[Part 1]

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

But 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 in my private womb
While the Mom's and Brad's 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

But 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 where 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
We're 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 in 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 care


[Part 3 - I don't care]

[x4]
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

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!


[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 the 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 masochists
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 ..

Hear the sound of the falling rain,
Coming down like and Armageddon flame,
The shame,
The ones who died without a name,
Hear the dogs howling out of key,
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery",
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,
To find the money's on the other side,
Can I get another Amen?
There's a flag wrapped around the score of men,
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

The representative from California has the floor

Zieg Heil to the president gas man,
Bombs away is your punishment,
Pulverize the Eiffel towers,
Who criticize your government,
Bang, Bang goes the broken glass,
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

Starry nights
City lights
Coming down over me
Skyscrapers
Stargazers in my head

Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting unknown
This dirty town
Was burning down in my dreams
Lost and found
City bound in my dreams

And screaming
Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting
And screaming
Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting

Forget-me-nots
Second thoughts
Live in isolation
Heads or tails
Fairytales in my mind

Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting unknown
The rage and love
The story of my life
The Jesus of
Suburbia is a lie
And screaming

Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting
And screaming
Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting unknown
Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting
And screaming
Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting unknown
Are we? We are
Are we? We are the waiting unknown

Take away the sensation inside
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
It`s like a throbbing tooth ache of the mind
And I can`t take this feeling anymore
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation`s overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everything will be alright
Tell me that I won`t feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling that’s alright
Johnny says it`s better than here
I’ll tell you what
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation`s overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won`t feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Aaah Novacaine
...
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation`s overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everything will be alright
Tell me that I won`t feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Give Me Novacaine by American Idiot Cast and Green Day

She's an extraordinary girl in an ordinary world
And she can't seem to get away
He lacks the courage in his mind, like a child left behind
Like a pet left in the rain

She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days she feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying

She sees a mirror of herself, an image she wants to sell
To anyone willing to buy
He steals the image in her kiss from her heart's apocalypse
From the one called Whatsername

She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying

She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying, some days it's not worth trying
Now that they both are finding she gets so sick of crying

She's an extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl

"Wake Me Up When September Ends"

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my fathers 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 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

like my father's come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends

Part I: The Death of St. Jimmy

My heart is beating from me, I am standing all alone
Please call me only if you are coming home
Waste another year flies by, waste a night or two
You taught me how to live

In the streets of shame
Where you've lost your dreams in the rain
There's no signs of hope
The stems and seeds of the last of the dope

There's a glow of light
The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night
Bearing gifts and trust
A fixture in the city of lust

What the hell's your name?
What's your pleasure, what is your pain?
Do you dream too much?
Do you think what you need is a crutch?

In the crowd of pain
St. Jimmy comes without any shame
He says we're fucked up but we're not the same
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame

Jimmy died today
He blew his brains out into the bay
In the state of mind
It's my own private suicide

Part II: East 12th Street

Well, nobody cares, well, nobody cares
Does anyone care if nobody cares?
Well, nobody cares, well, nobody cares
Does anyone care if nobody cares?

Jesus filling out paperwork now
At the facility on East 12th Street
He's not listening to a word now
He's in his own world and he's daydreaming

He'd rather be doing something else now
Like cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly
He's life's on the line with anxiety now
She had enough and he had plenty

Somebody get me out of here
Anybody get me out of here
Somebody get me out of here
Get me the fuck right out of here

So far away, I don't want to stay
Get me out of here right now
I just wanna be free, is there a possibility?
Get me out of here right now

This lifelike dream ain't for me

Part III: Nobody Likes You

I fell asleep while watching Spike TV
After ten cups of coffee and you're still not here
Dreaming of a song, but something went wrong
And you can't tell anyone 'cause no one's here

Left me here alone
And I should have stayed home
After ten cups of coffee, I'm thinking
Where'd you go?

Nobody likes you
Everyone left you
They're all out without you
Having fun

Everyone left you
Nobody likes you
They're all out without you
Having fun

Where'd you go?

Part IV: Rock 'n Roll Girlfriend

Jeez...

I got a rock and roll band
I got a rock and roll life
I got a rock and roll girlfriend
And another ex-wife

I got a rock and roll house
I got a rock and roll car
I play the shit out of the drums
And I can play the guitar

I got a kid in New York
I got a kid in the Bay
I haven't drank or smoked nothing in over twenty-two days
So get off of my case, off of my case, off of my case

Part V: We're Coming Home Again

Here they come marching down the street
Like in desperation, murmur of a heartbeat
Coming back from the edge of town
Underneath their feet

The time has come and it's going nowhere
Nobody ever said that life was fair now
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear
In the summer heat

The world is spinning around and around, out of control again
From the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down
So send my love a letterbomb and visit me in hell
We're the ones going...

Home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again

I started fucking running
As soon as my feet touched ground
We're back in the barrio
And to you and me that's Jingletown

That's home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again

Home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again
Home, we're coming home again

Nobody likes you
Everyone left you
They're all out without you
Having fun

Thought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to only be a dream

I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been

Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old Whatshisface?

I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been

Remember whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember whatever
It seems like forever ago

The regrets are useless in my mind
She's in my head, I must confess
The regrets are useless in my mind
She's in my head from so long ago, go, go, go

And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you but not the time

She's always living like she's running out of time
Too much just ain't enough to keep her satisfied
Her plastic heart is filled with nothing comes to mind
It's now her occupation that she's overqualified

The looks are always so deceiving
The truth is always misconstrued to you

Too much too soon, too little and now you're coming unglued
Too much too soon, too late and now it sucks to be you
Too much too soon, too little and now you're coming unglued
Too much too soon, too late and now it sucks to be you too

He's talking shit about how it's better way back when
He lives every waking moment as means to an end
We are, we are, but I'm not, I never used to be
So god bless your fucking past and to hell with your glory

The looks are always so deceiving
The truth is always misconstrued to you

Too much too soon, too little and now you're coming unglued
Too much too soon, too late and now it sucks to be you
Too much too soon, too little and now you're coming unglued
Too much too soon, too late and now it sucks to be you too

Too bad, too bad this is goodbye
And bon voyage
Farewell, see you in hell
I hope you rest in pieces

Fuck you!

Too much too soon, too little and now you're coming unglued
Too much too soon, too late and now it sucks to be you
Too much too soon, too little and now you're coming unglued
Too much too soon, too late and now it sucks to be you too

Shoplifter, you'll never learn
When you comitt the crime
Shoplifter, you're getting burned
And now you gotta do the time

It's a 1 2 3 on the felony
Well not everything is free
Now that you serve the community
It's the life of a pety thief

It's not considered stealing
Unless you're getting caught
But Jimmy caught stealing
Tryin' to take something you haven't got

Shoplifter, you'll never learn
What lies behind your back
Not a burgler or a bankrobber
But a cleptomaniac

It's not considered stealing
Unless you're getting caught
But Jimmy caught stealing
Tryin' to take something you haven't got

Shoplifter, you'll never learn
When you comitt the crime
Shoplifter, you're getting burned
And now you gotta do the time
And now you gotta do the time
And now you gotta do some time

He's at it again and he's gonna win
Gonna take it for a hell ride anyway
He's on your side, gonna throw you aside
And let the vultures pick apart what's left

Seems like everything
Was just a fraction of a second from being okay
So run and hide 'cause we're all gonna die
And let the vultures pick apart what's left

I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back

He's at it again
He's at it again
And it makes great television watching the world end

He's at it again, he's gonna win
Gonna take you for a joyride anyway
You're standing in line, better make up your mind
And let the bastard pick apart what's left of you

Seems like everything
Was just a fraction of a second from being a dream
So run and hide 'cause we're all gonna die
And let the government decide what's left

I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back

He's at it again
He's at it again
And it makes great television watching the world end

I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back

Walk around I see million possibilities
Well, I know nowhere to go
And I can't comprehend, things this real seems so pretend
I know I don't know

But I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back

And it makes great television watching the world end

I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back
I'll be back

And it makes great television watching the world end
I'll be back
