[Verse 1]
Gotta build it up just to burn it down
You're the princess, I'm a fucking clown
Stop the presses, 'cause I'm killing time
Won't you be my bloody valentine?

[Pre-Chorus]
You're just a fucking kid, and no one ever gives you a break
You want a señorita, and now your heart is gonna break

[Chorus]
You're Angel Blue with teenage traces
Angel Blue with pretty faces

[Verse 2]
Stab my heart like a stick in the mud
Cut my chest just to see the blood
Now I'm singing out the alphabet
As my tears are putting out my cigarette

[Pre-Chorus]
We'll hit the cemetery so we can see the holiday lights
Waking up the dead and everything'll be alright

[Chorus]
You're Angel Blue with teenage traces
Angel Blue with pretty faces

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Alright, stuck in the middle of heaven and hell
Alright, trying to find my better angels

[Verse 3]
Stab my heart like a stick in the mud
Cut my chest just to see the blood
Stop the presses, 'cause I'm killing time
Won't you be my bloody valentine?

[Pre-Chorus]
You're just a fucking kid, and no one ever gives you a break
You want a senorita, and now it's on you're gonna break

[Chorus]
You're Angel Blue with teenage traces
Angel Blue with pretty faces

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.
