American Idiot lyrics
Don't want to 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 idiot nation.
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 in the age of paranoia.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
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 want to 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 idiot nation.
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.

People who are against this song just don't get it. The song is genius. GD are just trying to get kids to think for themselves and not let the brainwashing media turn them into followers. They want leaders, leaders who will speak out to make America a better county. GD doesn't hate America they want a better America where people think for themselves.

How dare any of you teeny bopper assholes berate the country that allows you to listen to this utter shit? im 19, which on average is about 9 years older than any of you kids, and you anarchist bastards dont know anything about America or its foreign policy. how dare you say fuck america? why the fuck are you here? i like momo though. the rest of you are communists who like this shit. go move to fuckin canada where you douchebags belong.
