American Eulogy: Mass Hysteria/Modern World歌词

作词 : Billie Joe Armstrong
作曲 : Green Day
Mass 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 we welfare is asphyxiating
Mass confus ion is all the new rage
And it's creating a feeding ground
For the bottom feeders of hysteria
Mass Hysteria
Mass Hysteria
Mass Hysteria
Mass Hysteria
True sounds of maniacal laughter
And the deaf-mute is misleading the choir
The punch line 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
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,
American is falling
Vigilantes warning you
Calling Christian and Gloria
Part II: Modern World
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
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 UH!
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I am a nation without bureaucratic ties
Deny the allegation as it's written
I want to take a ride to the great divide
Beyond the "up to date" and then 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
Oh I don't give a **** about the modern age
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world
I don't want to live in the modern world (Mass Hysteria)
I don't want to live in the modern world (Mass Hysteria)
I don't want to live in the modern world (Mass Hysteria)
I don't want to live in the modern world (Mass Hysteria)
