Green Day "Homecoming" |
I. THE DEATH OF ST. JIMMY My heart is beating from me I am standin' all alone Please call me only if you are coming home Waste another year flies by Waste a night or two You taught me how to live In the streets of shame When you've lost your dreams in the rain There's no signs of hope The stems and seeds of the last of the dope There's a glow of light The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night Bearing gifts and trust The fixture in the city of lust What the hell's your name? What's your pleasure and what is your pain? Do ya dream too much? Do ya think whatcha need is a crutch? In the crowd of pain St. Jimmy comes without any shame He says "we're fucked up" but we're not the same And mom and dad are the ones you can blame Jimmy died today He blew his brains out into the bay In the state of mind It's my own private suicide II. EAST 12TH STREET Well nobody cares Well nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? Well nobody cares Well nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? Jesus is filling out paperwork now At the facility on east 12th street He's not listening to a word now He's in his own world And he's daydreamin' He'd rather be doing somethin' else now Like cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly His life's on the line with anxiety now She had enough And he had plenty Somebody get me out of here Anybody get me out of here Somebody get me out of here Get me the fuck right out of here So far away I don't wanna stay Get me outta here right now I just wanna be free Is there a possibility? Get me outta here right now ow, ow, ow, ow (right!) This life like dream ain't for me III. NOBODY LIKES YOU (sung by Mike Dirnt) I fell asleep while watching Spike TV After 10 cups of coffee And you're still not here Dreamin' of a song But something went wrong And you can't tell anyone Cuz no one's here Left me here alone And I shoulda stayed home After 10 cups of coffee of thinkin' Where'd ya go? Nobody likes you Everyone left you Where'd ya go? They're all out without you Havin' fun Where'd ya go? Everyone left you Nobody likes you Where'd ya go? They're all out without you Havin' fun Where'd ya go? IV. ROCK 'N' ROLL GIRLFRIEND (sung by Tre Cool) Jeeze Us I got a rock and roll band I got a rock and roll life I got a rock and roll girlfriend And another ex-wife I got a rock and roll house I got a rock and roll car I play the shit at the drums And I can play the guitar I got a kid in New York I got a kid in the Bay I haven't drank or smoked nothin' In over 22 days So get off of my case Offa my case Off of my case V. WE'RE COMING HOME AGAIN Here they come marchin' down the street Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat Comin' back from the edge of town Underneath their feet The time has come and it's goin' nowhere Nobody ever said that life was fair now Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear In the summer heat The world is spinning round and round Out of control again The 7-11 to the fear of breaking down So send my love a letterbomb And visit me in hell We're the ones goin' Home. We're coming home again Home. We're coming home again I started fuckin' running Just as soon as my feet touch ground We're back in the barrio And to you and me, that's jingletown That's Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Home. We're comin' home again Nobody likes you Everyone left you They're all out without you Havin' fun Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
