Green Day - American Eulogy lyrics

[XIII American Eulogy] Sing us a song of the century It sings like American Eulogy The dawn of my love and conspiracy Forgotten hope and the cla** of 13 Tell me a story into that goodnight Sing us a song for me [A. Ma** Hysteria] Hysteria, ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! Red alert is the colour of panic Elevated to the point of static Beating into the hearts of the fanatics And the neighborhood's a loaded gun Idle thought lead to full-throttle screaming And the welfare is asphyxiating Ma** confusion is all the new age and it's creating a feeding ground for the bottom feeders of hysteria Hysteria, ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! True sounds of maniacal laughter And the deafmute is misleading the choir The punchline is a natural disaster And it's sung by the unemployed Fight fire with a riot The cla** war is hanging on a wire because the martyr is a compulsive liar When he said "it's just a bunch of n******gs throwing gas into the ...." Hysteria, ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! Ma** hysteria! Ma** 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 [Bridge + Solo] [B. 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! I'm the cla** 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 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 (f**ing lies!) I want to 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's falling apart With money to burn on a minimum wage I don't give a sh** 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! I don't wanna live in the modern world! (Ma** hysteria!)
