Longview Songtext
von Green Day

Sit around and watch the tube, but nothing′s on
I change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors, and I′m fuckin' lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I′m going blind
And I smell like shit

Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me movin′
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I′m feelin' like a dog in heat
I′m barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell and I lost the key


Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored, I′m going blind
I smell like shit

I got no motivation
Where is my motivation?
No time for the motivation
Smoking, my inspiration
Shit!

Sit around and watch the phone, but no one's callin'
Call me pathetic, call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don′t like the one she′s got
When masturbation's lost its fun, you′re fuckin' lonely

Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I′m so damn bored, I'm going blind
Loneliness has to suffice


Bite my lip and close my eyes
Slippin′ away to paradise
Some say quit, or I'll go blind
But that's just a myth
