My favorite set of lyrics so far is in “Junkies On a High” where Billie goes from using “Oh yeah” as filler to quoting the Kool-Aid man. And it fits with the song. Clever.

For some reason when listening to "Oh Yeah", I start singing the lyrics "the stems and seeds of the last of the dope".    It KIND of fits, and even rhymes.   

"Oh Yeah" is "Homecoming 3"

We haven't heard "Homecoming 2" yet.  

 

Nightlife is Homecoming 2

I don't like it as much, I've said a few times I think it's pretty average by GD standards, but it's not bad by any means at all. Sorry you don't find anything you like about it.

Im actually finding it quite refreshing - there are some quality lyrics imo.

My Ranking of the songs:  

 

1.       Graffitia (Most of us are digging this one, I think.  It’s the anthemic side of Green Day)

2.       Junkies on a High (I’m in the minority on this one, I know)

3.       Sugar Youth  (This one sky rocketed after a few listens)

4.        OH yeah    (Come on guys.  It’s one Green Day’s best songs ever and you know it)

5.        Meet me on the Roof   (Liking this one more and more!)

6.        I was a Teenage Teenager    (Seen this one getting a lot of hate.   It’s awesome!)

7.        Father of All  (A truly great single, but the others are newer, so I like them more at the moment) 

8.        Take the Money and Crawl   (Really enjoying this one, even though I can’t make out a single word other than the title and c*&^)

9.       Fire Ready Aim  (A fun song, but eh)

10.   Stab You in the Heart (a fun song, but another one with indecipherable singing and the guitar is just WAAAY overpowering.  I heard someone saying this song samples Tutti Fruiti or something like that.

I really hope they join forces with Kool Aid.   

It would be hilarious to see them peddling it in ads!!!!!

Everybody is hearing different things in that song.   

Bruno Mars, The Clash, Tom Petty.  

I personally hear Springsteen.    It feels very much like a 21st Century Breakdown song to me, or at least like it was inspired by the same things.

I really believe Graffitia is good enough to fit on London Calling

Didn't care for "Take the Money and Crawl" at first but it's becoming a favorite. I love how disgusting it sounds and the cool Western intro.

The intro is fucking awesome

Another black kid was shot in town

A man with the badge and a daytime show

Darkness falls of Graffitia 

Death of a town in the after glow

Billie is using more Spanish on this one.  

Cholos. 

Mano-y-Mano

Bandito

Yeyo

And then Graffitia.   Which is not a word.

Yeah I noticed a lot of So-Cal lingo and Hispanic/Western themes/sounds on this album.

I hear 21cb for sure. I don't hear the other stuff though. Add this to your London Calling tracklist. It fits. Especially the ending songs on the record.

Not what the lyric book says.  But indeed what the singer sings.

It's what the vinyl sheet says. What does the lyrics book say?
