LYRICS
[Intro]
'Cause some things just don't change
It's better when they stay the same
Although the whole world knows your name
Some want a bigger stage
They came to see you spit your game, whoa
But it shouldn't be difficult to explain
Just why you came back again
You hate the fame, love the game
Cold as ice you remain, fuck 'em all
Tell 'em all eat shit, here we go again
[Ad-Libs]
Oh!
God damn!
Is it that time again already?
Haha, okay
Y'all don’t look too happy to see me
Fuck, man
Don’t everybody welcome me back at once
All right
Fuck y’all then!
[Verse 1]
You can get the dick, just call me the ballsack, I'm nuts
Michael Vick in this bitch, dog—fall back, you mutts!
Fuck your worms, you've never seen such a sick puppy
Fuck it, a sick duck, I want my duck sicked, mummy
And my nuts licked, gobble 'em up, trick, yummy
Bitch, you don't fuckin' think I know that you suck dick, dummy?
You'll get your butt kicked, fuck all that love shit, honey
Yeah, I laugh when I call you a slut, it's funny
Shorty, dance, while I diss you to the beat, fuck the words
You don't listen to 'em anyway, yeah, struck a nerve, sucker
Motherfucker, might as well let my lips pucker
Like Elton John, 'cause I'm just a mean cocksucker
The shit is on 'cause you went and pissed me off
Now I'm shittin' and pissin' on everybody
Give a fuck if it's right or wrong
So puff the Buddha, light a bong, but take a look at Mariah
Next time I inspire you to write a song—come on!
[Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
When it snows and it's twenty below
Ask me why, man, I just don't know
No-no-no, no-no, no
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
Blow-blow-blows
Blow-blow, blows, oh, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Fuck it, I'm a loose cannon, Bruce Banner's back in the booth
Y'all are sittin' ducks, I'm the only goose standin'
I'll set the world on fire, piss on it, put it out
Stick my dick in a circle, but I'm not fuckin' around
Motherfucker, I'll show you pussy-footin'
I'll kick a bitch in the cunt 'til it makes a queef
And sounds like a fuckin' whoopee cushion
Who the fuck is you pushin'?
You musta mistook me for some sissy soft punk
Lookin' for some nookie or bosom
Go ahead, fuckin' hater, push me!
I told you ain't no fuckin' way to shush me
Call me a faggot 'cause I hate a pussy
Man the fuck up, sissy, G's up, all you gardeners freeze up
Put your hoes down, "Shady ease up!
Man, chill!" Nah, I can't, goddamn it, rap is a landfill
Drop the anvil, these are shoes that you can't fill
Shit, the day that happens the world will stop spinnin'
And Michael J. Fox'll come to a standstill
During an earthquake, urine in your face
'Cause you're fake (*lightning noise*) Ow! What the fuck? That hurt, wait!
(*Lightning noise*) Ow! What the fuck? I just got struck by lightnin'
Alright then, I quit, God, I give up
Call it evil that men do
Lord, forgive me for what my pen do
"This is for your sins, I cleanse you
And you can repent, but I warn you
If you continue, to Hell I'll send you"
And just then the wind blew, and I said...
[Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
When it snows and it's twenty below
Ask me why, man, I just don't know
No-no-no, no-no, no
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
Blow-blow-blows
Blow-blow, blows, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
[Verse 3]
How long will I be this way? Shady until my dyin' day
'Til I hang up the mic and it's time for me to say
"So long," 'til then, I'll drop the fuckin' bombs
Like I missed the pass when I went long
If you don't like it, you can kiss my ass in a lint thong
Now sing along, slut this, slut that, learn the words to the song
"Oh, bitches don't like that," homie, I'll be nicer to women
When Aquaman drowns and the Human Torch starts swimmin'
Man, I'm a cold soul, I roll solo
So, don't compare me to them other bums over there
It's like apples to oranges, peaches to plums, yeah
I'm bananas, pussy, cut off the grapes and grow a pair
But I swear, you try to diss me, I'll slaughter you
I put that on everything, like everyone does with Auto-Tune
The last thing you want to do is have me spit out a rhyme
And say, "I was writing this and I thought of you," so
[Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
When it snows and it's twenty below
Ask me why, man, I just don't know
No-no-no, no-no, no
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
Blow-blow-blows
Blow-blow, blows, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
[Outro]
I don't know, I don't know what caused
I don't know what caused me to be this way
I don't know, I don't know
But I'll probably be this way 'til my dyin' day
I don't know why I'm so, I'm so cold
Mean things I don't mean to say
I guess this is how you made me

![Green Day - Give Me Novacaine/Shes A Rebel (High Quality)
From album: American Idiot (2004)
LYRICS
Give Me Novacaine
“Give Me Novacaine” is about Jesus of Suburbia wanting to take drugs to relieve stress from his life and asking for reassurance from his alter ego St. Jimmy.
The instrumentality goes slow throughout the song with the music exploding in the choruses. The lyrics see a lonely Jesus of Suburbia asking for help and then raging with ‘St. Jimmy’ who eventually turns to novacaine to numb the pain.
If seen from the perspective of St. Jimmy being a figment of the Jesus of Suburbia’s imagination, this song could be about Jesus trying to suppress his own personality so he can become St. Jimmy, which is the personality he wants to be.
The title, derivates from the local anesthetic drug Procaine, used primarily to reduce the pain of intramuscular injection of penicillin, and it is also used in dentistry. Owing to the ubiquity of the trade name Novocain, in some regions, procaine is referred to generically as novocaine.
The song segues to the next track, “She’s A Rebel”, without pausing.
[Verse 1]
Take away the sensation inside
Bittersweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing toothache of the mind
I cant take this feeling anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensations overwhelming
[Chorus]
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everythingll be alright
Tell me that I wont feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
[Verse 2]
Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling thats alright
Jimmy says its better than here, Ill tell you why
[Pre-Chorus]
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensations overwhelming
[Chorus]
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everythingll be alright
Tell me that I wont feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Oh, Novacaine
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensations overwhelming
[Chorus]
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everythingll be alright
Tell me, Jimmy, I wont feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Shes a Rebel
“She’s a Rebel” introduces a new character in the American Idiot story arc: Whatsername. Here, Jesus of Suburbia meets this free-spirited, rebellious woman who he falls in love with. The song details her strong-willed personality and her willingness to protest and rebel for her beliefs.
[Chorus]
Shes a rebel, shes a saint
Shes the salt of the earth, and shes dangerous
Shes a rebel, vigilante
Missing link on the brink of destruction
[Verse 1]
From Chicago to Toronto
Shes the one that they call ol Whatsername
Shes a symbol of resistance
And shes holding on my heart like a hand grenade
[Verse 2]
Is she dreaming what Im thinking?
Is she the mother of all bombs? Gonna detonate
Is she trouble like Im trouble?
Make it a double twist of fate or a melody that
[Bridge]
She sings the revolution
The dawning of our lives
She brings this liberation
That I just cant define, well, nothing comes to mind
(Hey)
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
She sings the revolution
The dawning of our lives
She brings this liberation
That I just cant define, well, nothing comes to mind
[Chorus]
Shes a rebel, shes a saint
Shes the salt of the earth, and shes dangerous
Shes a rebel, vigilante
Missing link on the brink of destruction
Shes a rebel, shes a saint
Shes the salt of the earth, and shes dangerous
Shes a rebel, vigilante
Missing link on the brink of destruction
[Outro]
Shes a rebel, shes a rebel
Shes a rebel, and shes dangerous
Shes a rebel, shes a rebel

From album: Hybrid Theory (2000)
LYRICS
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
I woke up in a dream today to the cold of the static
And put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering Im pretending to be where Im not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
Even though youre so close to me
Youre still so distant and I cant bring you back
[Pre-Chorus: Chester Bennington]
Its true, the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if youre not with me
[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
Im with you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see, even when I close my eyes
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor, the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong, I pretend that the past isnt real
Now Im trapped in this memory
And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
So even though youre close to me
Youre still so distant and I cant bring you back
[Pre-Chorus: Chester Bennington]
Its true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if youre not with me
[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
Im with you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside

No, no matter how far weve come
I cant wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far weve come
I, I cant wait to see tomorrow

From album: Hybrid Theory (2000)
LYRICS
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
(It starts with one) One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time all I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away, its so unreal (Its so unreal)
Didnt look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin to hold on, didnt even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when I tried so hard
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mockin me
Actin like I was part of your property
Rememberin all the times you fought with me
Im surprised it got so far
Things arent the way they were before
You wouldnt even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
You kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when I tried so hard
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
[Bridge: Chester Bennington]
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
