Letterbomb Lyrics

Send "Letterbomb" Ringtone to your Cell

Nobody likes you...
Everyone left you...
They're all out without you...
Having fun...

Where have all the bastards gone?
The underbelly stacks up ten high
The dummy failed the crash test
Collecting unemployment checks
Like a flunkie along for the ride

Where have all the riots gone?
As your city's motto gets pulverized
"What's in love is now in debt"
On your birth certificate
So strike the fucking match to light this fuse

The town bishop is an extortionist
And he don't even know that you exist
Standing still when it's do or die
You better run for your fucking life

It's not over 'till you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burnin'
"It's not my burden"
It's not over before it's too late

There's nothing left to analyze

Where will all the martyrs go when the virus cures itself?
And where will we all go when it's too late?

And don't look back

You're not the Jesus of Suburbia
The St. Jimmy is a figment of
Your father's rage and your mother's love
Made me the idiot America

It's not over 'till you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burnin'
"It's not my burden"
It's not over before it's too late

She said "I can't take this place,
I'm leaving it behind"

Well she said "I can't take this town,
I'm leaving you tonight"

(Used too much time On Jesus Of suberbia lol) But anyways, Can anyone save me time in helping me figer out more Diffedentsly what this song is about? Thatd be awesome. Thanks.

Decent song.
Never mind.
Best song on American Idiot. Except for JOS. That's the greatest song ever.
But this one's great.
Green Day's great.
It's all good.

For Nirvanalives ,

Yes, its supposed to be letter from Whatshername.

She's basically saying that she's leaving JOS.

This song rocks, as does all their other stuff!!! Green Day has got to be my all time favorite band, I've never heard a song by them that I don't like!!
emly 21/07/2005 15:00:41
Great song! i saw green day at milton keynes last month but they didnt play this, which is a shame because i think that this is one of the best on the album. But that doesnt matter because green day are the best band i have EVER EVER seen live! seriously, if you have a chance to see green day grab it because they are amazing. i love green day! i love billie joe! <3

I think my dad sed that half the lyrics were sposed to be about how "punk" has changed like 4 example "where have all the riots gone"... punk aint wat it used to be there used to be loadsa riots.. n basically punk is just music... not a lifestyle as it used to be.. (dad used to be a punk during the 80's)... but the other half i dno... its pretty good tho...
Jhamtes 08/05/2005 20:58:20
