[Verse 1]
Your rise and fall back up against the wall
What goes around is coming back and haunting you
It's time to quit 'cause you ain't worth the shit
Under my shoes or the piss on the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie
Or tell you all the things you wanna hear

[Chorus]
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!

[Verse 2]
I heard you're sick, sucked on that cancer stick
A throbbing tumor and a radiation high
Shit out of luck and now your time is up
It brings me pleasure just to know you're going to die

[Pre-Chorus]
No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie
Or tell you all the things you wanna hear

[Chorus]
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!

[Bridge]
Dickhead, fuckface
Cock-smoking, motherfucking
Asshole, dirty twat
Waste of semen, hope you die, hey!

[Verse 3]
Red eye, code blue, I'd like to strangle you
And watch your eyes bulge right out of your skull
When you go down headfirst into the ground
I'll stand above you just to piss on your grave

[Pre-Chorus]
No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie
Or tell you all the things you wanna hear

[Chorus]
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!
'Cause I hate you!

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.
