Red Lights Flash Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 My favourite song on the album. And it's epic fun to play it on the drums.
Drew Holiday Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 The beginning and the end of the song tend to drag, but the middle is fucking brilliant.
Metanoia Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 god i love the end when the lyrics from beginning come again just louder and stuff <3 sooooooooooo cool !!!!!!! ♥
-Billiejoezee- Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 this song is good without the first part.
The Disappearing Boy Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 goood song.except the 'oooh-ay-ee' buts after the words 'refugees' near the end.possibly the most annoying two seconds of any green day song ever.

Mar Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I've never heared them. Yeah, at like 3:06-3:17 in the song you can hear it in between the "like refugees, we're lost like refugees" lines.I don't particularly like it, but I love the song so much that I don't care. I seriously adore the song.
EuropeanIdiot Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 WHISKEY SHOTS AND CHEAP CIGATETTES!Hell yes. <3

bjrules Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 I seriously hate Billie's voice at the beginning of this song. And I also hate the way he says refugees. Worst song on the album for me. It's just never really grown on me. I used to think Last Night on Earth was the worst, but that grew on me.
kazoo Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 i agree with many others here, not my favorite, but very enjoyable. i prefer Last Night on Earth....playing right now..<3I seriously hate Billie's voice at the beginning of this song. And I also hate the way he says refugees. 2nd worst song on the album for me. (Last Night on Earth is the worst)ashajgdusFGKYUDs dont be hatin' on my songg <3I used to think Last Night on Earth was the worst, but that grew on me.mmhmmhmmhmhmmm thats better ^.^
Mar Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 ashajgdusFGKYUDs dont be hatin' on my songg <3mmhmmhmmhmhmmm thats better ^.^ What you said! I am oddly defensive of this song. I just adore it.
BuriedInAHole Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 The beginning is a little bit strange, because it's tooo sad, but when it comes to the first ,,Life before the lobotomy'' I love that..and the end is wonderful
BraedonHorbacio Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Awesome song. Best part is after he says "like refugees" and theirs that little DOODALEE in the background

Library Girl Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 Another favourite song of mine! LOVE IT SO MUCH! Those lyrics are amazing and always give me the creeps. I always loved the part "songs of yesterday now live in the underground" and how the mixed a bunch of songs from yesterday into this album! AMAZING! And so many of my favourite song quotes in this one!An epic piece of music and lyrics! Well I'm not stoned I'm just fucked upI got so high I can't stand upI'm not cursed cause I've been blessedI'm not in love cause I'm a mess!
94th nimrod. Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I have always interpreted it as the collapse of the American dream. Our "freedom" isn't that great in today's society, because people like Christian and Gloria face the troubles that they do in the modern world (no pun intended). I think he uses the term ironically, because what we perceive as freedom is actually a living hell, the brutality of reality as he says, that keeps us from doing what we want to do. After the lobotomy, people can't think, they can't dream, they're stuck in the brutality of reality.At least that's what I get out of the song on the numerous occasions I listen to it. Oh! That's soooo I don't know what to say.. It's a really powerful line
Mar Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Oh! That's soooo I don't know what to say.. It's a really powerful line Isn't it? I just cannot get enough of this song.
Sarahnade. Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 I've always loved this song, but I've been falling in love with it a lot more recently. So brilliant. The lyrics just amaze me.
Moxy Crimefighter Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 The first Time I heard this song, along with the rest of the album, I cried. start to finish. When song of the century crackled out of my stereo clouds appeared out of nowhere on what was, a nice sunny day. It got darker and darker, then Before the Lobotomy came through those speakers.Once that opening chord hit me the sky turned purple, my neighbours backyard was one fire and everything was weird to say the least.The song completly sucked me in, that opening verse brought on a new, fresh bought of tears and I just lay on my floor beside my window. watching the world collapse around me.I'd put the motion I felt when the song came to a close into words, but the truth is that there is none.
Bubbles. Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 LOVE IT! It's such a powerful song... fucking amazing.
