American Eulogy Lyrics - Artist : Green Day
[Part 1: American Eulogy]
Sing us the song of the century It sings like American eulogy The dawn of my love and conspiracy Of forgotten hope and the class of '13 Tell me a story into that goodnight Sing us a song for me [Part 2: Mass Hysteria] Hysteria Mass hysteria Mass hysteria Mass hysteria Red alert is the color of panic Elevated to the point of static Beating into the hearts of the fanatics And the neighborhood's a loaded gun Idle thought leads to full-throttle screaming And the wealth is asphyxiating Mass confusion is all the new rage And it's creating a feeding ground for the bottom feeders of Hysteria Mass hysteria Mass hysteria Mass hysteria True sounds of maniacal laughter And the deaf mute's misleading the choir The punchline is a natural disaster And it's sung by the unemployed Fight fire with a riot The class war is hanging on a wire Because the martyr is a compulsive liar When he said, "It's just a bunch of niggers throwing gas into the..." Hysteria Mass hysteria Mass hysteria Mass hysteria There's a disturbance on the oceanside They tapped into the reserve The static response is so unclear now "Mayday, this is not a test" As the neighborhood burns America is falling Vigilantes warning ya Calling Christian and Gloria! [Part 3: Modern World] I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world Well, I'm the class of '13 in the era of dissent A hostage of the soul on a strike to pay the rent The last of the rebels without a common ground I'm gonna light a fire into the underground, well I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I am a nation without bureaucratic ties Deny the allegation as it's written, fucking lies Well, I wanna take a ride to the great divide Beyond the "up to date" and the neo-gentrified The high definition for the low resident Where the value of your mind is not held in contempt I can hear the sound of a beating heart That bleeds beyond a system that is falling apart With money to burn on a minimum wage Well, I don't give a shit about the modern age I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world (Mass hysteria...) I don't wanna live in the modern world |
