American Idiot
Don't want to be an American idiot
Don't want a nation under the new media
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
In television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
Woo!
Well, maybe I'm the conflict, 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
In television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
Go!
Don't wanna 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
(It's not fucking okay!)
In television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
Hey!
Don't want a nation under the new media
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
In television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
Woo!
Well, maybe I'm the conflict, 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
In television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
Go!
Don't wanna 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
(It's not fucking okay!)
In television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
Hey!
