American Idiot Lyrics By Green Day

    don’t wanna be an american idiot
    don’t want a nation under the new media
    and can you hear the sound of hysteria
    the subliminal mindfuck america

    welcome to a new kind of tension
    all across the alien nation
    where everything isn’t meant to be okay
    television dreams of tomorrow
    we’re not the ones who’re meant to follow
    for that’s enough to argue

    well maybe i’m the faggot 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 alien nation
    where everything isn’t meant to be okay
    television dreams of tomorrow
    we’re not the ones who’re meant to follow
    for that’s enough to argue

    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 alien nation
    where everything isn’t meant to be okay
    television dreams of tomorrow
    we’re not the ones who’re meant to follow
    for that’s enough to argue
