Green Day: Bullet in a Bible Page #4

---

One, two-

one, two, three, four.

One, two- one, two, three, four.

One, two-

one, two, three, four.

One, two- one, two, three, four.

There's a drought at the fountain of youth,

and now I'm dehydrating

My tongue is swelling up,

I say 1,2,1,2,3,4 SHITTTT

Troubled times, you know I can not lie

I'm off the wagon and

Come on!

Before a show, I don't even

really like being talked to.

You gotta get your heart racing,

and you gotta get in that frame of mind

where you have to skew

your own reality

and you have

to really embrace

and concentrate

on everything

that is going to happen

on the stage

and be ready for the unpredictable

at the same time.

You get pumped up,

you get ready.

You can't be just

sitting on a couch

and goofing around

or playing Playstation

then go up and rock

a zillion people.

You gotta be pumped

somehow.

That includes- like I said,

I gotta break a sweat

before I hit the stage

because, you know,

it's like jumping

onto a moving train.

You just gotta be

ready for it, you know?

Otherwise,

you can get run over.

Rock and roll outfits

commence.

Form of a supergroup.

Next hour's going

to be a long one.

But the two hours

after that are gonna fly by,

and they're gonna

last forever.

I am so beautiful!

You just get rid of everything

that's going on

in the outside world

and you just focus on this gig.

But there's just all this stuff

that's going through your head,

but all you can do

is channel it.

You just get rid of

everything that's going on

in the outside world.

Hey-oh, let's go!

Green Day! Green Day!

Green Day! Green Day!

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go!

Let's go!

Let's go! Let's go!

It's a place of worship.

It's a place of rock!

- What kind of place is this?

- This is a holy place!

Why are there no clouds

in the sky?

'Cause God wants to watch

his favourite band again.

For the next two hours,

this is where I'm gonna be.

I want to treat it like as if it's

the last time I'm ever going to play.

I'm having trouble trying to sleep

I'm counting sheep but running out

As time ticks by

And still I try

No rest for crosstops in my mind

Everybody!

On my own here we go

My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed

Dried up and bulging out of my skull

My mouth is dry

My face is numb

F***ed up and spun out in my room

On my own here we go

My mind is set on overdrive

The clock is laughing in my face

A crooked spine

My sensed dulled

Passed the point of delirium

On my own here we go

My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed

Dried up and bulging out my skull

My mouth is dry

My face is numb

F***ed up and spun out in my room

On my own here we go

Alright, England!

Are you ready?

Ol, ol, ol.

Ol, ol.

Ol, ol, ol.

Ol, ol, ol.

Hey!

How are you guys

doing up there on the lawn?

How're you good guys

doing back there?

How's all my friends

down here on the floor?

I say, hey-oh! Come on!

Hey-oh!

I say hey-hey!

Hey-hey!

Now, I would like

to introduce to you

a band called Green Day.

Over here on the guitar...

originally

from Little Rock, Arkansas,

ladies and gentlemen,

Mr Jason White!

Standing to my left,

on the trumpet...

originally from London, England.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Mr Ronnie Blake.

And standing

right next to him,

on the piano,

on the saxophone,

on the trombone,

and many, many, many, many,

many, many, many,

many pornographic websites

on the internet...

Come over here, Mr Freese.

Come over here, Mr Freese.

Give me some of that-

give me

some of that UK Blues.

Come up here.

Bring me some of that.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Mr Jason Freese!

Alright.

On the bass...

a man I've been standing next to

for the last 16 years.

A man who looks

really good naked.

And the best f***ing bass player

in the history of punk rock music.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Mr Mike Dirnt!

Mike Dirnt,

Mike Dirnt.

And on the drums...

a man that's very personal

and close and a lifelong friendship

with Mr Michael Jackson.

A man I like

to shower naked with.

And the greatest drummer

in the history of rock and roll.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Tr Cool!

And my name is

George W. Bush!

Actually,

my name is A**hole.

I fully promote and love watching

Tr be the greatest rock drummer

- in the world.

- I concur.

Tr is... he's pure drummer

and way too much energy.

Orange Mocha Frappuccino.

Tr Cool plays the drums

in Green Day

and he snorts...

...doughnut sprinkles

and- oh, that's-

ah, that's a sweet drain.

I don't want you to get

the wrong idea.

I mean, not all liberals

smoke lettuce.

You know and he's...

how can l-

how can I place it?

I know, he's- he's just

a little catalyst, you know,

for good, bad

and everything in-between.

Hey, dear, come here.

I can count to four and repeat.

I'm a drummer.

Yeah... yeah.

See, I made you think

about hot tubs and stuff.

Gonna be an ongoing thing,

it'll be funny.

I judge all you drummers.

I'm watching you, hey!

Do you have the time

To listen to me whine

About nothing and everything

All at once

I am one of those

Melodramatic fools

Neurotic to the bone

No doubt about it

Come on!

Sometimes I give myself the creeps

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

It all keeps adding up

I think I'm cracking up

Am I just paranoid?

Am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink

To analyze my dreams

She says it's lack of sex

That's bringing me down

I went to a whore

He said my life's a bore

So quit my whining cause

It's bringing her down

Sometimes I give myself the creeps

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

It all keeps adding up

I think I'm cracking up

Am I just paranoid?

Uh, yuh, yuh, ya

Grasping to control

So I better hold on

Sometimes I give myself the creeps

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

It all keeps adding up

I think I'm cracking up

Am I just paranoid?

Am I just stoned?

We didn't even know

that we were going to make a video,

let alone a concert movie

in front of 65,000 people.

Best laid plans go

right out of the window

when there's a rock concert

and there's 65,000 people.

If you can't talk back

to the control booth-

Slow- this is nice.

Something doesn't feel

the way that we set it up.

I need something to go

to Tr - where is Tr? Yeah...

Um, j-jiggle the wire.

It's not working.

No, no, no.

Steph on wide and Al all the way.

Where is that-

- George, find something else.

- We don't have the helicopter.

You might get a few simple directions

throughout the show.

You're doing some racks like that.

That was nice.

Good, that's great,

hold that.

Tell everyone he's

on the squirt gun right now.

- Now, guys-

- So get off that f***ing side.

- Off the side.

- That's beautiful.

Look at that.

Man, that's f***ing great.

Making sure they're getting the slates.

That's awesome.

I've called them twice.

I'll call.

Guys, make sure you get your slates.

Don't forget your slates.

Thanks.

Yeah, stay on Jason.

No, hold it, you dumb f***.

Okay, give me a fast move.
