American Eulogy (Mass HysteriaModern World) Lyrics - Green Day

1 Sing us a song of the century

2 Seems like American Eulogy

3 The dawn of my love and conspiracy

4 Forgotten hope and the class of '13

5 Tell me a story into that goodnight

6 Sing us a song for me


7 Hysteria

8 Mass hysteria

9 Mass hysteria

10 Mass hysteria


11 Red alert is the color of panic

12 Elevated to the point of static

13 Beating into the hearts of the fanatics, and the neighborhood's a loaded gun

14 Idle thoughts lead to full-throttle screaming

15 And the wealth is asphyxiating

16 Mass confusion is all the new rage

17 And that's creating a feeding ground for the bottom feeders of hysteria


18 Mass hysteria

19 Mass hysteria

20 Mass hysteria


21 True sounds of maniacal laughter

22 And the deaf mute's misleading the choir

23 The punchline is a natural disaster, and it's sung by the unemployed

24 Fight fire with a riot

25 The class war is hanging on a wire

26 Because the martyr is a compulsive liar when he said

27 "It's just a bunch of niggers throwing gas into the hysteria"


28 Mass hysteria

29 Mass hysteria

30 Mass hysteria


31 There's a disturbance on the oceanside

32 They tapped into the reserve

33 The static response is so unclear now


34 Mayday, this is not a test

35 As the neighborhood burns

36 America is falling

37 The vigilantes warning ya

38 Calling Christian and Gloria


39 I don't wanna live in the modern world

40 I don't wanna live in the modern world

41 I don't wanna live in the modern world

42 I don't wanna live in the modern world


43 Well, I'm the class of '13 in the era of dissent

44 A hostage of the soul on a strike to pay the rent

45 The last of the rebels without a common ground

46 I'm gonna light a fire into the underground, well


47 I don't wanna live in the modern world

48 I don't wanna live in the modern world

49 I don't wanna live in the modern world

50 I don't wanna live in the modern world


51 I am a nation without bureaucratic ties

52 Deny the allegation as it's written

53 Fucking lies


54 Well, I wanna take a ride through the great divide

55 Beyond the "up to date" and the neo-gentrified

56 The high definition for the low resident

57 Where the value of your mind is not held in contempt


58 I can hear the sound of a beating heart

59 That bleeds beyond a system that is falling apart

60 With money to burn on a minimum wage

61 Well, I don't give a shit about the modern age


62 I don't wanna live in the modern world

63 I don't wanna live in the modern world

64 I don't wanna live in the modern world

65 I don't wanna live in the modern world


66 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

67 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

68 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

69 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

70 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

71 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

72 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

73 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

74 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world

75 (Mass hysteria) I don't wanna live in the modern world
