Knowledge
Green Day · The Studio Albums 1990-2009 [2012]
is an Operation Ivy cover they can't do shit!
I know things are getting tougher
When you can't see the top of the bottom of the barrell
Wide open road of my future now
It's looking fucking narrow
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
We get told to decide
Just like, as if, I'm not gonna change my mind
All I know...
What ya gonna do with yourself boy better make up your mind
What ya gonna do with yourself you running out of time
(And that's fine) YEEEEEHAA"
