Featuring: Stark Sands Christina Sajous

Songwriter: Green Day

[TUNNY]
She's an extraordinary girl
In an ordinary world
And she can't seem to get away

[EXTRAORDINARY GIRL]
He lacks the courage in his mind
Like a child left behind
Like a pet left in the rain

[TUNNY]
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes

[EXTRAORDINARY GIRL]
Some days he feels like dying

[TUNNY]
She gets so sick of crying

[TUNNY, BEN AND EXTRAORDINARY GIRL]
She sees the mirror of herself
An image she wants to sell
To anyone willing to buy

[EXTRAORDINARY GIRL and LIBBY]
He steals the image in her kiss
From her heart's apocalypse
From the one called Whatsername

[TUNNY]
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes

[EXTRAORDINARY GIRL]
Some days he feels like dying

[TUNNY]
She gets so sick of crying

[TUNNY and EXTRAORDINARY GIRL]
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying
Some days it's not worth trying
Now that they both are finding

[TUNNY]
She gets so sick of crying

[ALL]
She'as an extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl

Green Day

Formed in East Bay, California in 1986 and still going strong today, Green Day is one of the biggest punk rock acts in the world. Along with other punk bands in California such as The Offspring, Sublime, Bad Religion and Rancid, they have been credited with popularizing and reviving mainstream interest in punk rock in the U.S. in the 90s.

First starting in 1986 as Sweet Children, longtime friends Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar and lead vocalist) and Mike Dirnt (bass guitar) teamed up with John Kiffmeyer to produce their debut EP 1,000 Hours. They eventually dropped the name Sweet Children and called themselves Green Day due to the band members' fondness for cannabis (it even inspired a song featured on their first album) and for their second studio album Kerplunk they replaced Kiffmeyer with German-born drummer Tré Cool, who had been drumming since the age of 12 in a punk band, The Lookouts.

It was their 1994 record Dookie that sent the band to stardom and gave them mainstream success. Dookie, alongside their following albums Insomniac (1995) and Nimrod (1997) were certified double platinum. Eventually, the band started to fall in popularity with their 2000 record Warning which only reached gold.
