Shut your mouth cause you're talking too much
And i dont give a fuck anyway
You always seem to be stepping in shit
And all you really do is complain
It's your lie, tell it how you like
Small minds tend to think alike
Shut your mouth cause you're talking too much
And i dont give a fuck anyway

[Chorus x4]
LET YOURSELF GO!
LET YOURSELF GO!
LET YOURSELF GO!


GOTTA LET IT GO!
GOTTA LET IT GO!
GOTTA LET IT GO!
GOTTA LET IT GO!

Cut the crap cause you're screamin' in my ear
And you're taking up all of the space
You're really testing my patience again
And i'd rather get punched in the face
You're getting on my every last nerve
Everything you said i already heard
I'm sick to death of your every last breath
And i dont give a fuck anyway!

[Chorus x4]

GOTTA LET IT GO!
GOTTA LET IT GO!
GOTTA LET IT GO!
GOTTA LET IT GO!

I wanna live with Normal People
I wanna breathe with Normal People
I wanna work with Normal People
Wanna be with normal people
Or i'm 'bout to

[Chorus x8]

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.
