The Static Age

Green Day · 21st Century Breakdown [2009]

Can you hear the sound of the static noise?

Blasting down the stereo

Cater to the class and the paranoid

Music to my nervous system

Advertising love and religion

Murder on the airwaves

Slogans on the brink of corruption

Vision of blasphemy, war and peace

Ooh, Screaming at you



I can't see a thing in the video

I can hear sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age



Billboard on the rise in the dawn's landscape

Working your insanity

Tragic a'la madness and concrete

Coca cola execution

Conscience on a cross and

You're hearts on a vice

Squeezing out your state of mind

Are what you own that you cannot buy?

What a fucking tragedy, strategy

Screaming at you



I can't see a thing in the video

I can't hear a sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age



I can't see a thing in the video

I can't hear a sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age



Hey, hey it's the static age

This is how the west was won

Hey, hey it's the static age millennium



All i want to know

It's a god-damned thing

Not what's in the medicine

All i want to do is

I want to breath

Batteries are not included

What's the latest way that a man can die

Screaming hallelujah?

Singing out "the dawn's early light"

The silent of the rotten, forgotten

Screaming at you



I can't see a thing in the video

I can't hear a sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age



I can't see a thing in the video

I can't hear a sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age



I can't see a thing in the video

I can't hear a sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age



I can't see a thing in the video

I can't hear a sound on the radio

In stereo in the static age

The static age
