GDM Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Still amusing that she bothered arguing when she obviously didn't know though Some people just like to argue. But with the help of a crowd of hundreds surrounding her... NOW she knows. and she won't forget it!
AtTheLibrary19 Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I always sing it as lazy because I thought the lyric booklet said that, plus it makes sense to me at least.
LouLou Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I've always said lazy. I've heard/read a few different things, but my brain just automatically says lazy. Its just fits for me lol
deadair Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 is it "breaking"? that's what I sing but for a long time I was singing the chorus of "She" totally wrong, lol
Hermione Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 ^It says breaking in the booklet, but he definitely says "lonely" in the song Haha me too, I always used to just mumble the chorus of She as I couldn't hear half of what he said. And that goes for probably half of all Green Day lyrics , the whole of Westbound Sign used to sound like it was in a foreign language to me except the words "westbound sign".
bass boy Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 ok now that i heard it live, i have a good feeling that its lonley
The Daughter of Rage and Love Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 I've always used "breaking." :/

Nova-Caine Posted July 21, 2009 Posted July 21, 2009 ^^There are songs I have just given up on over the years, seriously its not worth the pain any more
GreenDayChords Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Forgive me for bumping this old post (especially as my first post), but this thread is how I ended up finding/joining this forum. Nowadays when they play the song live they have someone from the audience sing it...prior to that Billie usually got the whole audience to sing that part, so it was tough to find a live version where I could compare that one lyric. However, if you check out this video where they played an acoustic type set for a benefit in 1999, you can hear that out of the words speculated in this thread, it most definitely would have to be "lonely". Just thought I'd throw that in there.

1039slappygirl Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I know the booklet says it's "breaking", but I always sing it like "lazy"
Teenage Kicks! Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I always say "when masturbations lost its fun, you're fuckin lowwwwwwwwwwwwww" Hahaha
lastnightonGDA Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I always say lazyyy, because when masturbation has lost its fun for me....i'm usually fucking lazy
Isabel Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I never sing that part; that's the part for the crowd to sing and worry about
dawn71 Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 "Lazy" is said after the 2nd verse. The part you're talking about, the lyrics on the CD say "Breaking" but a lot of the time he switches up and says "Lonely" and I have even heard him change it to "Crazy" a few times when he preforms it live...I guess it is whatever he feels like saying at that moment.
21st century idiot Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Been saying lazy since i heard the song...and i'm not changing it Did anyone check the dookie lyric booklet???
JullyToledo Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I always sing breaking because booklet said it... and nowwwwwwww I dont know..... y'know... Billie Joe is from Rodeo, maybe he sings breaking but he got a strong accent what do you sing or hear in the end? "I'm slipping away ..." "I'm tripping away..." "I was tripping away..." I dont know it too...
Sheehan Rysa Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Its always been "breakin" for me . . but now I'll change it according to my mood I guess
