[Verse 1]
This whiskey's sour, amateur hour
Raise your glass and toast your friends
Someday, we will fight again, well
Your enemies, your tragedies
Pocket knives and rusty chains
Where the hell is the old gang at?

[Pre-Chorus]
And all the losers
Can't even win for losing
And the beginners
Don't even know what song they're singing

[Chorus]
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound (Alright!)

[Verse 2]
This broken scene is turning green
And brass knuckles left in the rain
Death wish kids among the living
I wanna ride on the divided
Anything but the mainstream
Where the fuck is your old gang, man?

[Pre-Chorus]
And all the losers
Can't even win for losing
And the beginners
Don't even know what song they're singing

[Chorus]
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound

[Bridge]
So long
You didn't even say a goodnight
So long
There's nowhere to go when you're hiding in plain sight!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound
Well, there's no one left around
And you're the last gang in town
And your heart can't even break
When it doesn't even pound

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.
