Song lyrics
Sit around and watch the tube 
But nothing's on 
Change the channels for an hour or two 
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit 
I'm sick of all the same old shit 
In a house with unlocked doors 
And I'm fucking lazy 

Bite my lip and close my eyes 
Take me away to paradise 
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind 
And I smell like shit 

Peel me off this velcro seat 
And get me moving 
I sure as hell can't do it by myself 
I'm feeling like a dog in heat 
Barred indoors from the summer street 
I locked the door to my own cell 
And I lost the key 

Bite my lip and close my eyes 
Take me away to paradise 
I'm so so damn bored I'm going blind 
And I smell like shit 

I got no motivation 
Where is my motivation 
No time for motivation 
Smoking my inspiration 

Sit around and watch the phone 
But no one's calling 
Call me pathetic, call me what you will 
My mother says to get a job 
But she don't like the one she's got 
When masturbation's losts its fun 
You're fucking breaking 

Bite my lip and close my eyes 
Take me away to paradise 
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind 
And loneliness has to suffice 
Bite my lip and close my eyes 
Slipping away to paradise 
Some say "quit or I'll go blind" 
But it's just a myth

Haha. This song has such memories. My friend Max and I were listening to this and he was like, "So what's it about?" "It's actually about masturbation, and being bored." He just looked at me and was like "Oh my god. I sing this around my parents!"

FOBpunk, you are NOT the only one who knows what true Green Day sounds like. I mean, there are actually people who are like, "YAY I LOVE GREEN DAY EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE A NEW BAND THEY ROCK" and don't know about their old music. It's sickening.

I would have to agree with what your saying, I have been a Green day fan for a long ass time, but I would have to disagree with the dissing of american Idiot.....I think that it was a really good album and the lyrics are really good, I am not saying that it is better than Dookie or any other of their cd's but I would have to say it is definitually up there.
