American Idiot Lyrics - The Ultimate American Idiot - Green Day

Don't want to be an American idiot 

Don't want a nation under the new mania 

And 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 okay 

Television dreams of tomorrow 

We're not the ones who're meant to follow 

For that's enough to argue

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Well, maybe I'm 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 alienation 

Where everything isn't meant to be okay 

Television dreams of tomorrow 

We're not the ones who're 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 

It's calling out to idiot America 

Welcome to a new kind of tension 

All across the alienation 

Where everything isn't meant to be okay 

Television dreams of tomorrow 

We're not the ones who're meant to follow 

For that's enough to argue
