    Lyrics:
    Don't wanna be an American idiot
    Don't want a nation under the new mania
    And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
    The subliminal mind-fuck America
    Welcome to a new kind of tension
    All across the alien nation
    Where 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 to the age of paranoia
    Welcome to a new kind of tension
    All across the alien nation
    Where 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 wanna be an American idiot
    One nation controlled by the media
    Information age of hysteria
    It's calling out to idiot America
    Welcome to a new kind of tension
    All across the alien nation
    Where 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

      Clearly the responses to your comment saying 'what a legend' are from 12 to 13 year olds who know nothing about responsibility or parenting.
      (EDIT)
      NOTE BEFORE YOU MENTION ME, IT'S BEEN ELEVEN MONTHS.
      Then:
      1. I am not against having fun by any means.
      And
      2. I know sensored music sounds terrible because I've listened to many like the sensored version of DMX's song 'What You Bitches Want From A Nigga' that goes like 'What you chickens want from a (blurred)' it's completely unenjoyable, it's an attrocious catastrophe.
      What I've been arguing against here from the very beginning is the praising of an adult as a hero for giving a child something against the consent of their loving parents who have gone beyond providing food, shelter, and education for their child to affording them the luxury of enjoying art, be it sensored or not.
      It's just a basic principle.

I mean, the lyrics were important then, but its insane how well they've stood the test of time and become more and more resonant in the past 17 years. A new kind of tension, the age of paranoia, do the propaganda, etc. Era defining music right here
