[Verse 1]
Baby infidel in a dirty magazine
Telling dirty lies, everybody can see
Kick it in the head and now I wanna see you dead
With a switchblade edge to the chest

[Chorus]
I wanna stab you in the heart
I wanna stab you in the heart
Right in the bloody, bloody heart, ooh
For heaven's sake, you're just a fake
And you know it ain't right

[Verse 2]
Pictures don't lie when you're front-page news
Dagger to the heart coming down on you

[Chorus]
I wanna stab you in the heart
I wanna stab you in the heart
Right in the bloody, bloody heart, ooh
For heaven's sake, you're just a fake
Girl, you know it ain't right

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Daggers in my eyes and a rusty tambourine
Gimme my stiletto, gonna do some surgery

[Chorus]
Right to the heart (In the bloody, oh, in the bloody)
I wanna stab you in the heart (In the bloody, oh, in the bloody)
Right in the bloody, bloody heart, ooh (In the bloody, oh, in the bloody)
For heaven's sake, you're just a fake
And you know it ain't right

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.
