Know Your Enemy (Manchester, England) Songtext
von Green Day

Alright!
I said, "Hey-oh!" (Hey-oh!)

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, wah-hey

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, wah-hey

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, wah-hey

Violence is an energy
Against the enemy
Well, violence is an energy, wah-hey
Bringing on the fury
The choir infantry
Revolt against the order to obey (oh-ay, oh-ay)


Overthrow the effigy
The vast majority
Well, burning down the foreman of control (oh-ay, oh-ay)
Silence is the enemy
Against your urgency
So rally up the demons of your soul (oh-ay, oh-ay)

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, wah-hey

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, wah-hey

The insurgency will rise
When the blood′s been sacrificed
Don't be blinded by the lies in your eyes

Aww yeah!
(Oh-ay, oh-ay)
(Oh-ay, oh-ay)

Oakland, California
Welcome to the first gig
The third gig, number three
Of the 21st Century Breakdown world tour
Are you ready?


Well, violence is an energy
(Oh-ay, oh-ay)
Wll, from here to eternity
(Oh-ay, oh-ay)
Well, violence is an energy
(Oh-ay, oh-ay)
Well, silence is the e-
So come and give me revolution!

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Jason White right here on the guitar
Play on, J
You guys ready to dance?
Get up!
I said, "Hey-oh!" (Hey-oh!)

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, wah-hey

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, hey!

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy, hey!

Overthrow the effigy
The vast majority
Well, burning down the foreman of control (oh-ay, oh-ay)
Silence is the enemy
Against your urgency
So rally up the demons of your soul (oh-ay, oh-ay)

Oh!
