Pulling Teeth
Green Day · The Studio Albums 1990-2009 [2012]
I'm all busted up
Broken bones and nasty cutts
Accidents will happen
But this time I can't get up
She comes to check on me
Making sure I am on my knees
After all shes the one
Who put me in this state
Is she ultra violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
O God, she's killing me!!!
For now I'll lie around
Hell that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keeps saying my love is true
Is she ultra violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
O God, she's killing me!!!
Looking out my window for
Someone that's passing by
NO one knows I'm locked in here
All I do is cry
For now I'll lie around
Hell that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keeps saying my love is true
Broken bones and nasty cutts
Accidents will happen
But this time I can't get up
She comes to check on me
Making sure I am on my knees
After all shes the one
Who put me in this state
Is she ultra violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
O God, she's killing me!!!
For now I'll lie around
Hell that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keeps saying my love is true
Is she ultra violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her that I love her
Before she does it all over again
O God, she's killing me!!!
Looking out my window for
Someone that's passing by
NO one knows I'm locked in here
All I do is cry
For now I'll lie around
Hell that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keeps saying my love is true
Pulling Teeth
Released on Green Day's 2012 compilation album, 'Pulling Teeth' stands as a quintessential example of the band's punk rock energy and lyrical directness. The track features the signature power chords and driving rhythm that defined their 1990s era, particularly their work on 'Dookie' and 'American Idiot.' Written by Billie Joe Armstrong, the song captures the frustration and urgency often found in their catalog, serving as a powerful anthem for the punk revival movement. Its inclusion on a retrospective collection highlights its enduring status as a staple of the band's discography, resonating with fans who appreciate the raw, unpolished sound that Green Day brought to mainstream rock music.
