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

A Green Day song that just gets better with age. Thats quite common with this band. Songs that stand the test of time.
It’s like that because new songs just keep getting worse and worse
A Green Day song that just gets worse with censoring.
Indonesia
This is true I agree
leokimvideo wtf omg I love ur redback spider videos
I remember getting this album when I was 10 and my mum wouldn't let me get the uncensored version. The guy at the music shop saw how much I wanted the uncensored version swapped the discs and when I got home I realised and only listened with headphones. What a legend.
What a legend.

What a legend.
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.
@@ThePrinceOfNigeria just a meme lol
I vote for uncensored versions of these music videos.
Yesss like I do not want to search for a video made by UNICORNKITTYLUVR3948 in 240p because their crappy ass phone can't handle recording in 480p

Little did anyone know that when this song came out in 2004, it was heralding the modern American life. 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
They would have been just as relevant in 1983. Or 1968.

You stole my words-
Forever love for Green Day!! I had this album growing up and still DO! Played it in my car the other day!! Rock ON!!
Simply a childhood classic this song is... me and my brothers used to listen to this song all the time back in 2004 and 20 years later it's still awesome along with the rest of GreenDay's songs from that time period.

Because they’re not AMERICAN idiots😂
Ohin Haque no, it’s called having a good taste in music, I remember buying the cd and LOVED this song so no it’s not, it’s because some actually like it. (My opinion)
@ALSO-RAN ! He smugly wrote, implying Americans are "on top," completely oblivious to the irony and implications of that.
Dog God They are aren’t they? In terms of being superpower at least. Obviously the US has awful problems as does every big nation. Brits are arrogant to downplay the US influence considering they are smaller than Texas.
This Song with this Lyrics can't get old. As a kid I didn't understand it but this is so true especially now.
In elementary school, my friend played this on his Chromebook, and I loved this song ever since. 🙏😭❤️
Nice to see this song is still causing controversy 20 years later
Dont you find it funny that they are being praised by the very same media this song is meant to criticize? id say thats the opposite of being controversial
It's really funny to me that this song was anti-establishment until the establishment aligned with the band's politics. Now, they just appear old, weak, and out of touch.
@@YungGhost Out of touch is when they're opposing a flagrantly reactionary project and no I'm not talking about American society as a whole
@@swag8485 Dawg they were praised by practically everyone who is the establishment here
@@YungGhost if they were anti-establishment they would not have picked a side like this. rednecks on the right, woke weirdos on the left. they turned into the very same american idiots they are singing about while being completely oblivious to it.
To those saying this song is relevant now.... it’s been relevant since before it was written

God I'm so happy I was old enough at those times to now remember when this absolute masterpiece of an album came out. I was in love with this video too.
Cannot wait to hear this played in full in August here in Milwaukee!!!!!!😃😃😃😃
This song would make a great theme song for 2020 and 2021
This more of a theme song for 2018 or 2019
It IS 2021 Theme
its a 2000-2021 theme
It was made to tell people ahead of time but no one listens or reads the lyrics 🤣🤣
@@saranichols9201 its telling a story of how america was shit at the time especially with George Bush, now the band uses it to bash Donald Trump on stage and tell him to kill himself, kinda funny ngl
This song is even more relevant now.
Init
I was just thinking that while watching it.
Way too relevant. And was when it came out
Yeah..
yea
I can remember watching green day play this song tv i fell in love with rock ever since
*20 YEARS OLD ALBUM. LOVE FROM PHILIPPINES*
The lyrics hold true more today than when it was released. This aged perfectly.

Still one of my favorite bands ❤️
Johnny test: Can I copy your homework
Green Day: yea just put it in your words so it won't make it seem like we copied each other.
I actually thought it was the Johnny test theme song at first
@@Sebastian-sn1jb well, actually it was lended to Johnny test because greenday was supportive of the show.
pXhantom Menace 🤣
Green Day helped with the show a lot so that’s why it sounds the exact same and that’s why the dogs named Dookie just like the album.
@@Sebastian-sn1jb that back fired
Don't know why, but I was just watching the debate between Trump and Biden the other day and this song popped out on my head and it hasn't left ever since.
I was also thinking of this song during it
I love this comment 😭😭
because you were hungry
I was the 69th like
This played on my way home from work and I knew it was the theme song for 2020...or pretty much any year
Green Day 20 years ago predicted America's future.
20 years later this song fits perfectly. I wished it weren't true.
Yeah i cant believe GREENDAY SOLD OUT....and spreading AMERICA FIRST is MESSAGE IS EVIL.... THIS BAND AND MEMEBERS ARE COMMMIES..... TRUMP 2024 or you all will be eating out of the ditches when the country collapses due to corruption from BIDEN AND OTHERS>....

It's a choice of getting infected going back to work or slowly dying in your house you can't pay for.

Magress Opness but the thing is when you go to work sick you get other people sick and you take away their ability to choose
