[Verse 1]
Why should my fun have to end?
For me, it's only the beginning
See my friends begin to age
A short countdown to their end

[Chorus]
Don't call me irresponsible
Don't call me habitual
But when you think of me
Do you fill your head with schemes?
Better think again, 'cause no one knows

[Verse 2]
I don't want to cause no harm
But sometimes, my actions hurt
Is there something I should find
To make plans for forever?

[Chorus]
Don't call me irresponsible
Don't call me habitual
But when you think of me
Do you fill your head with schemes?
Better think again, 'cause no one knows

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
Call me irresponsible
Call me habitual
(Does it seem like all your memories fade?)
But when you think of me
(You soak up knowledge to fill the space)
Do you fill your head with schemes?
(Yet still, my answer remains; I don't know)
Better think again, 'cause no one knows
I don't...

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.
