Letterbomb — Green Day
Verse
Where have all the bastards gone? The underbelly stacks up ten high The dummy failed the crash test Collecting unemployment checks Like a flunkie only along for the ride
Where have all the riots gone As your city's motto gets pulverized? What's in love is now in debt On your birth certificate So strike the fucking match to light this fuse Fuse
Pre-Chorus
The town bishop is an extortionist And he don't even know that you exist Standing still when it's do or die You better run for your fucking life
Chorus
It's not over 'till you're underground It's not over before it's too late This city's burning It's not my burden It's not over before it's too late There's nothing left to analyze
Interlude
Where will all the martyrs go when the virus cures itself? And where will we all go when it's too late? Late!
Solo: C#m A5 E G#5
Bridge
I'll tow 'em back
You're not the Jesus of Suburbia The St. Jimmy is a figment of... Your father's rage and your mother's love Made me the Idiot America
Chorus
It's not over 'till you're underground It's not over before it's too late This city's burning It's not my burden It's not over before it's too late
She said I can't take this place I'm leaving it behind
Well she said I can't take this town I'm leaving you tonight
