Lyrics[edit | edit source]

The lyrics to this song were not allowed to be printed in the album's liner notes because of the profanity in the song. Billie Joe Armstrong described the situation as "lawyer problems due to [his] potty-mouth". The lyrics are as a follows:

Your rise and fall
Back up against the wall
What goes around is coming back and haunting you
It's time to quit
'Cause you ain't worth the shit
Under my shoes or the piss on the ground

No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie or tell you all the things you want to hear.
'Cause I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU

I heard you're sick
Sucked on that cancer stick
A throbbing tumor and a radiation high
Shit out of luck
And now your time is up
It brings me pleasure just to know your going to die
                
Dickhead, fuckface, cock-smoking, mother-fucking, asshole, dirty twat, waste of cement, I hope you die, HEY

Red eye, code blue
I'd like to strangle you
And watch your eyes bulge right out of your skull
When you go down
Head first into the ground
I'll stand above you just to piss on your grave
