Somewhere Now Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm runnin' late to somewhere now

That I don't want to be

Where the future and promises

Ain't what it used to be

I never wanted to compromise

Or bargain with my soul

How did a life on the wild side

Ever get so dull?

[Chorus]

(Ooh, ooh-ooh) All grown up and medicated

I'm high on cellular waves

(Ooh, ooh-ooh) I put the "riot" in "patriot"

And we all die in threes

[Verse 2]

I got a seat in the middle of the road

I'm gonna take my time

I shop online so I can vote

At the speed of life

I'm like a drone way up in the sky

I'm a shootin' star

There's a soldier that's freakin' out

P.S. This is war

[Chorus]

(Ooh, ooh-ooh) All grown up and medicated

I'm high on cellular waves

(Ooh, ooh-ooh) I put the "riot" in "patriot"

And we all die in threes

(Ooh, ooh-ooh) All we want is money and guns

A new catastrophe

(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Here comes nothin', there's nothin' to lose

It's a small price we pay

When we all die in threes

[Bridge]

(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh-ooh) Somewhere now

(Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh-ooh) Somewhere now

(Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh) Somewhere now!

(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh-ooh) Somewhere now

(Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh) Somewhere now!

[Interlude]

[Outro]

(Ooh) Hallelujah, I found my soul (Ooh)

Under the sofa pillows

(Ooh) Congratulations, I found myself (One, two!)

Somewhere now

Bang Bang Lyrics

[Intro]

This is definitely not the first video to surface of an execution

The blue stash of men, they claimed responsibility for the executions

Described as severely mentally disturbed

It appears to show another hostage executed by the terrorist group

Deserve to be annihilated

[Verse 1: Billie Joe Armstrong]

I get my kicks, and I wanna start a rager

I wanna dance like I'm on the video

I got a fever for the violent behavior

I'm sweatin' bullets like a modern Romeo

[Chorus: Billie Joe Armstrong, Billie Joe Armstrong & Mike Dirnt]

Bang! Bang! Gimme fame!

Shoot me up to entertain (Ah-ah)

I am a semi-automatic lonely boy

You're dead! I'm well fed!

Give me death or gimme head (Ah-ah)

Daddy's little psycho, and Mommy's little soldier

[Verse 2: Billie Joe Armstrong]

I testify like a lullaby of memories

Broadcasting live, and it's on my radio

I got my photobomb, I got my Vietnam

I love a lie just like anybody else

[Chorus: Billie Joe Armstrong, Billie Joe Armstrong & Mike Dirnt]

Bang! Bang! Gimme fame!

Shoot me up to entertain (Ah-ah)

I am a semi-automatic lonely boy

You're dead! I'm well fed!

Give me death or gimme head (Ah-ah)

Broadcasting from my room and playin' with my toys

[Bridge: Billie Joe Armstrong, Billie Joe Armstrong & Mike Dirnt]

I wanna be a celebrity martyr (Ah-ah)

The leadin' man in my own private drama

Hoorah! (Bang! Bang!) Hoorah! (Bang! Bang!)

The hero of the hour

Daddy's little psycho, and Mommy's little soldier

[Breakdown: Billie Joe Armstrong, Billie Joe Armstrong & Mike Dirnt]

I wanna be like the soldiers on the screen

It's my private movie (Holy War!)

Oh, baby, baby, this is Viva Vendetta

For this is love, or it's World War Zero!

Ah-ah-ah

[Drum Solo]

[Chorus: Billie Joe Armstrong, Billie Joe Armstrong & Mike Dirnt]

I wanna be a celebrity martyr (Ah-ah)

The leadin' man in my own private drama

Hoorah! (Bang! Bang!) Hoorah! (Bang! Bang!)

The hero of the hour

Daddy's little psycho, and Mommy's little soldier

I wanna be a celebrity martyr (Ah-ah)

The leadin' man in my own private drama

Hoorah! (Bang! Bang!) Hoorah! (Bang! Bang!)

The hero of the hour

Daddy's little psycho, and Mommy's little soldier!

Revolution Radio Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Scream! With your hands up in the sky

Like you wanna testify

For the life that's been deleted

Scream! Like a rebel's lullaby

Under the stars and stripes

For the lost souls that were cheated

[Pre-Chorus]

We will be seen, but not be heard

[Chorus]

(We are) Revolution Radio

Operation "No Control"

And the headline (Headline)

"My love's bullet proof"

Gimme cherry bombs and gasoline

Debutantes in surgery

And the headline (Headline)

"Legalize the truth!"

[Verse 2]

(Gimme) Rage! Like there's tear gas in the crowd

Do you wanna live out loud?

But the air is barely breathin'

Rise! Of the slums to the obsolete

The dawn of the new airwaves

For the anti-social media

[Chorus]

(We are) Revolution Radio

Operation "No Control"

And the headline (Headline)

"My love's bullet proof"

Gimme cherry bombs and gasoline

Debutantes in surgery

And the headline (Headline)

"Legalize the truth!"

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

We will be seen, but not be heard

We are the songs of the disturbed

[Chorus]

(We are) Revolution Radio

Operation "No Control"

And the headline (Headline)

"My love's bullet proof"

Gimme cherry bombs and gasoline

Debutantes in surgery

And the headline (Headline)

"Legalize the truth!"

Say Goodbye Lyrics

[Chorus]

Say goodbye to the ones that we love

Say goodbye to the ones we love

Say goodbye to the ones that we love

Goodbye to the ones that we love

Say goodbye to the ones that we love

Say goodbye to the ones we love

Say goodbye to the ones that we love

[Verse 1]

Violence on the rise

Like a bullet in the sky

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul

Kindred spirits sing

For the sick and suffering (The suffering, oh-oh)

The city of damage control

This is how we roll, roll

[Chorus]

Say hello to the cops on patrol

Say hello to the ones in control

[Verse 2]

Teach your children well

From the bottom of the well

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul

Hear the children sing

For the sick and suffering (The suffering, oh-oh)

The city of damage control

This is how we roll, roll, roll

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]

Violence on the rise

Like a bullet in the sky

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul

Kindred spirits sing

For the sick and suffering (The suffering, oh-oh)

The city of damage control

This is how we...

[Chorus]

Say a prayer for the ones that we love

Say a prayer for the ones we love

Say a prayer for the ones that we love

Say goodbye to the ones that we love

(This is how we!)

Say a prayer for the ones that we love

Say a prayer for the ones we love

Say a prayer for the ones that we love

Say goodbye to the ones that we love

(This is how we...)

Outlaws Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Life after youth

Faded in twilight

The dawn of a criminal in bloom

First love, first forgiveness

We were delinquents

Freaks of a fading memory

[Chorus]

Outlaws, when we were forever young

When we were outlaws

We're outlaws of redemption, baby

Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia

When we were outlaws

We're outlaws of forever

[Verse 2]

Scars, broken hearts

Breakin' in cars

Running in the light of the moon

Lost souls, bottle rockets

All that we wanted

It's for our life beyond the stars

[Chorus]

Outlaws, when we were forever young

When we were outlaws

We're outlaws of redemption, baby

Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia

When we were outlaws

We're outlaws of forever, baby

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

I've got no supervision

Nothin' will change my spirit's place to roam

I'll plead my innocence, I'll plead my innocence

But that's my best defense when you are young

[Chorus]

Outlaws, when we were forever young

When we were outlaws

We're outlaws of redemption, baby

Hooligans, we destroyed suburbia

When we were outlaws

We're outlaws of forever

[Outro]

I found a knife by the railroad track

You took a train, and you can't go back

Forever now, forever now, you'll roam

Bouncing Off the Wall Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Concrete dream (Hey!)

I'm gonna make a scene

Radio covered in gasoline

Sleepin' in reverse, and everybody's bouncin' off the walls

Bombs away (Hey!)

It's just another day of idle threats

The secret alphabet

I wouldn't sweat it, everybody's bouncin' off the walls

(I'm bouncin' off the walls!)

[Interlude]

Alright

[Verse 2]

Concrete kiss (Hey!)

Come on and do the twist

The radio, my little exorcist

We're all gettin' pissed, and everybody's bouncin' off the walls

(I'm bouncin' off the walls!)

[Chorus]

'Cause it's all that I want, and I wanna be free

I got Satan ridin' next to me

'Cause we're all bloody freaks, and we'll give you the creeps

Chasing fireflies and zeroes

[Post-Chorus]

Hey!

[Chorus]

'Cause it's all that I want, and I wanna be free

I got Satan ridin' next to me

'Cause we're all bloody freaks, and we'll give you the creeps

Chasing fireflies and zeroes

[Post-Chorus]

Hey!

Still Breathing Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm like a child lookin' off in the horizon

I'm like an ambulance that's turnin' on the sirens

Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive

I'm like a soldier comin' home for the first time

I dodged a bullet, and I walked across a landmine

Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive

[Pre-Chorus]

Am I bleedin'?

Am I bleedin' from the storm?

Just shine a light into the wreckage

So far away, away

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm still breathin'

'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away

'Cause I'm still breathin'

'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away, my way to you

[Verse 2]

I'm like a junkie tyin' off for the last time

I'm like a loser that's bettin' on his last dime

Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive

I'm like a son that was raised without a father

I'm like a mother barely keepin' it together

Oh-oh-oh, I'm still alive

[Pre-Chorus]

Am I bleedin'?

Am I bleedin' from the storm?

Just shine a light into the wreckage

So far away, away

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm still breathin'

'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away

'Cause I'm still breathin'

'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away, away

[Bridge]

As I walked out on the ledge

Are you scared to death to live?

And I've been runnin' all my life

Just to find a home that's for the restless

And the truth that's in the message

Makin' my way away, away

[Interlude]

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm still breathin'

'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away

'Cause I'm still breathin'

'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away

(My way to you) 'Cause I'm still breathin'

(My way to you) 'Cause I'm still breathin' on my own

My head's above the rain and roses

Makin' my way away, my way to you

Youngblood Lyrics

[Chorus]

Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood

She's my little youngblood

Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood

Punch drunken youngblood

[Verse 1]

She's a loner, not a stoner

Bleeding heart, and the soul of Ms. Teresa

Supernova, Cherry Cola

She's the cedar in the trees of Minnesota

Ah-ah ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah, ah-ah ah-ah

[Verse2]

I'm a rough boy 'round the edges

Gettin' drunk, and fallin' into hedges

She's my weakness, fuckin' genius

Swear to God, and I'm not even superstitious

[Chorus]

Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood

She's my little youngblood

Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood

Punch drunken youngblood

[Bridge]

I wanna hold you like a gun

We'll shoot the moon into the sun

(Daylight) Alright (Alright) Alright, ow!

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]

Are you stranded like I'm stranded?

Do you wanna watch the world fall to pieces?

Are you broken like I'm broken?

Are you restless? She said, "Fuck you, I'm from Oakland!"

[Chorus]

Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood

She's my little youngblood

Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood

Punch drunken youngblood

Too Dumb to Die Lyrics

[Intro]

Oh, oh, I love you

Oh, oh, I do

I got a sentimental illness for you

Please don't go away, oh yeah

[Verse 1]

I was a high school atom bomb

Goin' off on the weekends

Smokin' dope and mowin' lawns

And I hated all the new trends

[Pre-Chorus]

Me and my friends sang, "Woah-ooh-woah-oh-oh" (Woah-ooh-woah)

"Here's to the middle of the road

At least it's better than here"

[Chorus]

Lookin' for a cause

Well, all I got was Santa Claus

I'm hangin' on a dream that's too dumb to die

I feel like a cello

Lost somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high (Woo, way up high)

Too scared to dream

But too dumb to die

[Verse 2]

My daddy always was on strike

Goin' off with the teamsters

He said that everything'll be alright

"Not every Sunday can be Easter"

[Pre-Chorus]

The picket line screamed, "Woah-ooh-woah-oh-oh" (Woah-ooh-woah)

"Don't cross, don't cross the line because

You'll be a scab, not a martyr"

[Chorus]

Lookin' for a cause

Well, all I got was camouflage

I'm hangin' on a dream that's too dumb to die

I feel like a cello

Lost somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high (Woo, way up high)

Too scared to dream

But too dumb to...

[Interlude]

(Haha, hehe)

(Yeah) Hey

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Lookin' for a cause

Well, all I got was camouflage

I'm hangin' on a dream that's too dumb to die

I feel like a cello

Lost somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high (Woo, way up high)

Too scared to dream

But too dumb to die

Troubled Times Lyrics

[Verse 1]

What good is love and peace on Earth

When it's exclusive?

Where's the truth in the written word

If no one reads it?

[Pre-Chorus]

A new day dawning

Comes without warning

So don't think twice

[Chorus]

We live in troubled times (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Verse 2]

What part of history we've learned

When it's repeated?

Some things, we'll never overcome

If we don't seek it

[Pre-Chorus]

The world stops turning

Paradise burning

So don't think twice

[Chorus]

We live in troubled times (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

We live in troubled times

[Bridge]

We run for cover

Like a skyscraper's fallin' down

And then I wonder

Like a troubled mind

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]

What good is love and peace on Earth

When it's exclusive?

Where's the truth in the written word

If no one reads it?

[Pre-Chorus]

A new day dawning

Comes without warning

So don't look twice

[Chorus]

We live in troubled times (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

We live in troubled times

We live in troubled times (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

We live in troubled times

Forever Now Lyrics

[Part I: I'm Freaking Out]

[Verse 1]

My name is Billie, and I'm freakin' out

I thought, therefore I was, well I can't really figure it out

I sit alone with my thoughts and prayers

Scream out my memories as if I was never there

[Chorus]

Standing at the edge of the world

Is givin' me the chills

But lookin' down the edge of the world

I'm lost in a tango, it's freakin' me out

Burnin' lights and blackouts

[Post-Chorus]

(Out, out, out) From the edge of the world!

[Verse 2]

I'm like a punk rocker on Labor Day

How the hell did I work so hard to be born this way?

I never learned to read or write so well (Freakin' out)

But I can play the guitar until it hurts like hell

[Chorus]

Standing at the edge of the world

Is givin' me the chills

But lookin' down the edge of the world

I'm lost in a tango, it's freakin' me out

Burnin' lights and blackouts

[Post-Chorus]

(Out, out, out) From the edge of the world!

[Part II: A Better Way to Die]

[Intro]

If this is what you call the good life (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

I want a better way to die

If this is what you call the good life (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

I want a better way to die

[Verse 3]

Oh, I don't wanna think about tomorrow

Don't wanna think about the old

It doesn't matter anyway

Oh, I, I wanna start a revolution

I wanna hear it on my radio

I'll put it off another day

[Bridge]

I want a new conspiracy

And the silence of a thousand cries

So hurry up, I want a better way to die

[Part III: Somewhere Now (Reprise)]

[Verse 4]

I'm runnin' late to somewhere now

That I don't want to be

Where the future and promises

Ain't what it used to be

I never wanted to compromise

Or bargain with my soul

How did a life on the wild side

Ever get so full?

[Chorus]

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh) Somewhere now

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, I (Ooh, somewhere now)

Don't wanna think about tomorrow

(Ooh, somewhere now)

Don't wanna think about the old

(Ooh, somewhere now)

It doesn't matter anyway

(Ooh, somewhere now)

Oh, I (Ooh, somewhere now)

I wanna start a revolution

(Ooh, somewhere now)

I wanna hear it on my radio

(Ooh, somewhere now)

I'll put it off another day

(Ooh, somewhere now)

[Bridge]

Oh, I (Ooh, somewhere now)
