Don't want to be an American Idiot
Don't want a nation under the new media
Hey, can you heard the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind fuck America

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be OK
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're no the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

May 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 alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be OK
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're no the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue

Don't want to be an American Idiot
One nation controlled by the media
Information age of hysteria
Calling out to idiot America

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be OK
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're no the ones meant to follow
For that's enough to argue
