American Idiot

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 f*** America.


Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the aliennation
Where everything is meant to be O.K.
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

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 aliennation
Where everything is meant to be O.K.
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 aliennation
Where everything is meant to be O.K.
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
