Longview
(Billie Joe Armstrong)
Sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on
Change the channels for an hour or two.
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit.
In a house with unlocked doors and I'm fuckin' lazy.
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise.
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind!!!
And I smell like shit.
Peel me off this velcro seat and get me moving
I'm sure as hell can't do it by myself.
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street.
I locked the door to my own cell
And I lost the key
I got no motivation
Where is my motivation?
No time for motivation
Smoking my inspiration.
Sit around and watch the phone, but no one's calling.
Call me pathetic
Call me what you will.
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got.
When masturbation's lost its fun
You're fucking lonely!
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise.
I'm so damn bored
I'm going blind
And loneliness has to suffice.
Bite my lip and close my eyes
slipping away to paradise.
Some say 'Quit or I'll go blind.'
But it's just a myth
