American Idiot

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Don't wanna be an American Idiot.

Don't want a nation that under the new media.

And get you with the sound of hysteria?

The subliminal mind fuck America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.

All across the alienation.

Everything isn't meant to be okay.

Television dreams of tomorrow.

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

Convincing them to walk you.

Well maybe I'm the faggot America.

I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.

Now everybody do the propaganda.

And sing along in the age of paranoia.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.

All across the alien nation.

Everything isn't meant to be okay.

Television dreams of tomorrow.

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

Convincing them to walk you.

Don't wanna be an American Idiot.

One nation controlled by the media.

Information age of hysteria.

It's going out to Idiot America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.

All across the alien nation.

Everything isn't meant to be okay.

Television dreams of tomorrow.

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

Convincing them to walk you.
