Hey, Kate, you wanted lyrics, you got 'em.

Green Day Lyrics

ALBUM: NIMROD

NICE GUYS FINISH LAST
Nice guys finish last.
You're running out of gas.
Your sympathy will get you left behind.
Sometimes you're at your best.
When you fell the worst.
You feel washed up like piss going down the drain.

Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane.
I'm so ******* happy I could cry.
Every joke can have its truth.
And the joke's on you.
I never knew you were such a funny guy.

Nice guys finish last, when you are the outcast.
Don't pat yourself on the back, you might break you spine.

Living on command.
You're shaking lots of hands.
Kissing up and bleeding all your trust.
Taking what you need.
Bite the hand that feeds.
You kill your memory and you got no shame.

HITCHIN' A RIDE
Hey mister where you headed?
Are you in a hurry?
I need a lift to happy hour.
Say oh no.
Do you break for distilled spirts?
I need a break aswell.
The well that inebriates the guilt 1,2,1,2,3,4

Cold turkey's getting stale.
Tonight I'm eating crow.
Fermented samonella, poison oak, no.

There's a drought at the fountain of youth.
Now I'm dehydrated.
My tongue is swelling up, I say 1,2,1,2,3,4

Troubled Times.
You know I cannot lie.
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride.

There's a drought at the fountain of youth.
Now I'm dehydrated.
My tongue is swelling up, I say ****

THE GROUCH
I was a young boy that had big plans.
Now I'm just another ****** old man.
I don't have fun and I hate everthing.
The world owes me so **** you.
Glory days don't mean **** to me.
I drank a six pack of apathy.
Life's a ***** and so am I.
The world owes me so **** you.

Waisted youth and a fistfull of ideals.
I had a young and optimistic point of view.
Waisted youth and a fistfull of ideals.
I had a young and optimistic point of view.

I've decomposed, yet my guts getting fat.
Oh my god, I'm turning out like my dad.
I'm always rude.
I got a bad attitude.
The world owes me so **** you.
The wife's a nag and the kid's ******* up.
I don't have sex 'cause I can't get it up.
I'm just a grouch sitting on the couch.
The world owes me so **** you.

REDUNDANT
We're living in repitition content in the same old shtick again.
Now the routine's turning to contention.
Like a production line going over and over and over, roller coaster.

Now I cannot speak.
I lost my voice.
Speechless and redundant cause I love you is not enough.
I'm lost for words.

Choreographed and lack of passion.
Prototypes of what we were.
Went full circle till I'm nautious.
Taken for granted, now I'm wasted, faked it, ate it now I hate it.

SCATTERED
Well I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor.
Reminds me of the times we shared.
Makes me wish that you were here.
Now it seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life.
All the songs have been erased.
Guess I've learned from my mistakes.

Open the past and present now and we are there.
Story to tell and I am listening.
Open the past and present and the future too.
Its all I got and I'm giving it to you.

Loose ends tied in knots, leaving a lump down in my throat.
Gagging on a souvenir, built to fill another year.
Drag it on and on until my skin is ripped to shreds.
Leaving myself open wide.
Living out a sacrifice.

If you got no one and I got no place to go.
Would it be alright?
Could it be alright?

ALL THE TIME
All the time
Everytime I need it
What's the time?
I'd say the time is right
Here's to me
Let's find another reason
Down the hatch and a bad attitude.....salud

Waisting time, waisting time down a bum **** road and I don't know where
the hell it'll go
Heirlooms, huffing fumes and I'm picking up the pace
And I'm gonna smash right into a wall

All the time
"New Year's Resolution."
How soon that we forget
Doing time and loving every minute
Live it up on another let down....salud

Promises, promises
It was all set in stone
Cross my heart and I hope to die
Sugar fix, dirty tricks and a trick question
Guess I should have read between the lines

Having the time of my life, watching the clock tick
All the time
Where did all the time go?
It's too late to say goodnight
Time flies when you're having fun
Time's up when you work like a dog....salud

PLATYPUS (I HATE YOU)
Your rise and fall
Back up against the wall
What goes around is coming back and haunting you
It's time to quit 'cause you ain't worth the ****
Under my shoes or the piss on the ground

No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it or you don't care
Cause now I wouldn't lie or tell you all the things you want to hear
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you

I heard your sick.
Sucked on that cancer stick.
A throbbing tumor and a radiation high.
**** out of luck.
And now your time is up.
It brings me pleasure just to know your going to die.

********, ********, **** smoking, ****** *******, *******, dirty ****,
waste of *****, I hope you die.
HEY.

Red eye, code blue, I'd like to strangle you.
And watch your eyes bulge right out of your skull.
When you go down head first into the ground I'll stand above you just to
piss on your grave.

UPTIGHT
I woke up on the wrong side of the floor.
Made, made my way through the front door.
Broke my engagement with myself.
Perfect picture of bad health.
Another notch scratched on my belt.
Future just ain't what it used to be.

I got a new start on a dead end road.
Peaked, peaked on reaching new lows.
Owed, paid off all my debts to myself.
Perfect picture of bad health.
Another notch scratched on my belt.
Future's in my living room.

Uptight I'm a nag with a gun.
All night.
Suicide's last call.
I've been uptight all night.
I'm a son of a gun.

JINX
I ****** up again it's all my fault.
So turn me around and face the wall.
And read me my rights and tell me I am wrong until it gets into my thick skull.
A slap on the wrist.
A stab in the back.
Torture me, I've been a bad boy.
Nail me to the cross and tell me you have won.
I lost before I did any wrong.

I'm hexed with regrets and bad luck.
So keep your distance, it's rubbing off.
Or you will be damned to spend your life in hell on Earth with me
tangled at your feet.

You finally met your nemesis disguised at your fatal long lost love.
So kiss it goodbye until death do we part.
You fell for a jinx for crying out loud.

HAUSHINKA
Haushinka is a girl with a peculiar name
I met her on the eve of my birthday
Did she know,
Did she know before she went away?
Does she know?
But it's damn too late

This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone

All I have now is a memory to date
A cheap hat and cigaretts and a peculiar name
I didn't know now,
I didn't know before she went away
I don't know
I don't know, and it's too damn late

Will she ever find her way?
I'm too damn young to be too late, but am I?
Yet again I'm kicking myself
And I'll be here in battle scars
Waiting for you
Waiting for you now

WALKING ALONE
Come togetherlike a foot in a shoe
Only this time I think I stuck my foot in my mouth
Thinking out loud and acting in vain
Knocking over anyone that stands in my way

Sometimes I need to apologize
Sometimes I need to admit that I ain't right
Sometimes I should just keep my mouth shut or only say hello
Sometimes I still feel I'm walking alone

Walk on eggshells on my old stomping ground
Yet there's really no one left
That's hanging around
Isn't that another familiar face?
Too drunk to figure out they're fading away

REJECT
Who the **** are you to tell me
What I am and what's my master plan?
What makes you think that it includes you
Self-righteous wealth
Stop flattering yourself

'Cause when the smoke clears here I am
Your reject all-american
Sucking up your social sect
Making you a nervous wreck
To hell and back and hell again I've gone
You're not my type
Not my type

What's the difference between you and me?
I do what I want and you do what you're told
So listen up and shut the hell up
It ain't no big deal and I'll see you in hell

'Cause when the smoke clears here I am
Your reject all-american
Falling from grace right on my face
To hell and back and hell again I've gone

TAKE BACK
You pushed me once too far again
I'd love to break your ******* teeth
I stick a knife in the center of your back
You better grow some eyes in the back of your head
I fight dirty just like your looks
Can't take
Can't take
Can't take anymore

Take back
Take back
Take
The taste of bad blood on the tip of my toungue
An eye for and eye, gun for a gun
Cold-cocked and I'm taking back what's mine
Expect it when you're least expecting it
No loss of love
The smell of regret
Lights out
Can't take anymore

Shite

KING FOR A DAY
Started at the age of 4
My mother went to the grocery store
Went sneaking through her bedroom door
To find something in a size 4

Sugar and spice and everything nice wasn't made for only girls
GI Joe in panty hose is making room for the one and only
King for a day
Princess by dawn
King for a day
In a leather thong
King for a day
Princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me

My daddy threw me in therapy
He thinks I'm not a real man
Who put the drag in the drag queen?
Don't knock it until you tried it

TIME OF YOUR LIFE (GOOD RIDDANCE)
Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don't ask why
It's not a question
But a lesson I learned in time

It's something unpredictable
But in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth
It was worth all the while

PROSTHETIC HEAD
I see you down in the front line
Such a sight for sore eyes
You're a suicide make over
Plastic eyes, looking through a numb skull
Self effaced, what's his face
You erased yourself so shut up
You don't let up

You have a growth that must be treated
Like a severed severe pain in the neck
You can smell it but you can't see it
No explanation identified 'cause you don't know
You don't say
And you got no reply

Hey you, where did you come from?
Got a head full of lead
You're a inbred bastard son
All dressed up, red blooded Amannequin
Do or die, no reply
Don't deny that you're synthetic
You're pathetic
