Green Day "American Idiot" song lyrics

[Kid Game]

Seing as how I have nothing better to do I figure I'll bide my time by posting up the song lyrics for some of my music cd's. First up is the lyrics for the new Green Day CD, American Idiot. I will make a new post for each song on the disc. Of course I am reading this from the little lyrics booklet that comes with the CD and am typing the words based on what it says in the booklet.

Oh and another thing, the CD has a parental advisory label. It's the 7th cd put out by green day and is also the first one with the parental advisory. I've listened to the whole CD and there isn't really that much bad language or anything.

Don't want to be an american idiot
Don't want a nation under the new mania
Can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal Mind fuck america

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be ok
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

Maybe I am the faggot america
I'm not part of a redneck agenda
Now everybody to the propaganda
and sing along to the age of paranoia

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be ok
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

don't want to 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 alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be ok
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

Part 1- 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
But there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In the 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 BRAD's are away
To fall in live and fall in debt
To alcohol and cigarettes and mary jane
To keep me insane and doing someone else's cocaine

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 mottoa 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 and the end of the world
And I could really only care less.

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
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
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 retarted?
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 to believe
And I leave behind this hurricane of fucking lies
I lose 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
