Walking contradiction
(As recorded by Green Day Insomniac)
Intro:
A, D, G, A x 2
Verse: (A, D, G, A - throughout)
Do as I say not as I do because the shits so deep you cant run away
I beg to differ and on the contrary I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive and my wallets fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then Ill hit you again Im a smart ass but Im playing dumb
Interlude:
A, D, G, A x 2
Verse: (A, D, G, A - throughout)
Standards set and broken all the time, control the chaos from behind a gun
Call it as I see it even if I was born deaf, blind and dumb
Losers winning big on the lottery, rehab rejects still sniffing glue
Constant refutation with myself Im victim of catch 22
Chorus: (D, G, A throughout)
I have no belief
But I believe on the walking contradiction
And, I aint got no right
Interlude:
A, D, G, A x 2
Verse: (A, D, G, A - throughout)
Do as I say not as I do because the shits so deep you cant run away
I beg to differ and on the contrary I agree with every word that you say
Talk is cheap and lies are expensive and my wallets fat and so is my head
Hit and run and then Ill hit you again Im a smart ass but Im playing dumb
Chorus: (D, G, A throughout)
I have no belief
But I believe on the walking contradiction
And, I aint got no right
D, G, A x 3
I have no belief
But I believe on the walking contradiction
And, I aint got no right

Ripping up my transfer and a photograph of you
Youre a blur of my dead past and rotting existence

(As recorded by Green Day Insomniac)
Intro:
G, D, A, D x 2
Verse: (Same chord progression as intro)
Im just a mutt and nowhere is my home
Where dignitys a land mine in the school of lost hope
Ive panhandled for a life and Im not afraid to beg
Hand me down your lost and founds of second hand regret
Bridge:
A B C D A
You better swallow your pride or youre gonna choke on it

You better digest your values because they turn to shit
Chorus:
A B C D
Honours gonna knock you down before your chance to stand up and fight
E D A
I know Im not the one, Ive got no pride

Sects of disconnect and traditions of lost faith
No cultures worth a stream of piss or a bullet in my face
To hell with unity, separations gonna kill us all
Torn to shreds and disjointed before the final fall
Bridge:
A B C D A
You better swallow your pride or youre gonna choke on it
A B C D A
You better digest your values because they turn to shit
Chorus:
A B C D

E D A
I know Im not the one, Ive got no pride, like a rising tide, I got no pride

Lyrics and song progression
Intro:
Verse:
Boxed up, all of her favourite things, sold the rest at a rainy yard sale
Big plans and leaving friends and a westbound sign
Weighed out, her choices on a scale, prevailing nothing made sense
Just transportation and a blank decision Shes taking off
Interlude: (Same as intro)
Verse:
No time and no copping out, shes burning daylight petrol
Blacked out the rear-view mirror, heading westward on
Strung out on confusion road and ten minute nervous breakdowns
Xanex a beer for thought and she determined Shes taking off
Interlude: (Same as intro)
Bridge:
Is it starvation or an escape from discontent
Will she find her name in the California cement
Punched out of the grind that punched her one too many times
Is tragedy two-thousand miles away Shes taking off
Interlude: (Same as intro)
She
(As recorded by Green Day Dookie)

Waiting for a sign to smash the silence with the brick of self-control

Are you locked up in a world
C G
that's been planned out for you?
D
Are you feeling like a social tool
C G
without a use?
C G C G
Scream at me, until my ears bleed
C G D
I'm taking heed just for you

She, shes figured out all her doubts were someone elses point of view
Waking up this time, to smash the silence with the brick of self-control

Intro:
G, D, E, C (PC) x 2
Verse: (Same as intro)
I heard you crying loud
All the way across town
Youve been searching for that someone and its me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself
Dont get lonely now
Dry your whining eyes
Im just roaming for the moment sleazin my back yard
so dont get so uptight about ditching me
Chorus: (A, C x 2)
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where Ill be found
When I come around
Verse: (Same as intro and previous verse)

So dont knock down my door

You cant go forcing something if its just not right

Lyrics
Verse:
I'm on a sentimental journey into sight and sound
Of no return and no looking back or down
A conscientious objector to the was that's in my mind
Well leaving in the lurch and I'm taking back what's mine
Bridge:
I'm on a mission
Into destination unknown
An expedition
Into desolation road
Where I'm a
Chorus:
Castaway going at it alone
Castaway now I'm on my own
Castaway going at it alone
Castaway now I'm on my own
Lost and found
Trouble bound castaway
Verse:
I'm riding on the night train and driving stolen cars
Testing my nerves out on the Boulevard
Spontaneous Combustion in the corners of my mind
Well leaving in the lurch and I'm taking back what's mine
Bridge:
I'm on a mission
Into destination unknown
An expedition
into desolation road
where am I
Chorus:
Castaway going at it alone
Castaway now I'm on my own
Castaway going at it alone
Castaway now I'm on my own
Lost and found
Trouble bound castaway
