If we’re gonna go out, baby While the rain from your hair drip-drops That’s where I gotta be with you lookin' like this Let’s get lost somewhere Anywhere we ain’t gotta hold back I wanna feel your heart go tic-toc Let's go out like that Out where I can

Feel your breath on the back of my neck. Where have I, Come to be? That's left for me. I wish that I was still there. I wanna keep on breathing. Head down running from the beast. Break neck speeding, taken down on my birth.

Not when I'm 23 That's where I wanna be I'm just a single man (yeah) 'Cause that's what a young nigga do (what I do) Switchin' lanes, actin' a fool Got the fitted hat to the back neck froze and I'm iced up (not when I'm 23) Not when I'm 23 Don't need no

Well, I'm out of Alabama, down to Louisiana Halfway 'bout to New Orleans Yeah, I'm leaning on my Chevy Rolling through the levees trying to get to where I wanna be That's where I reckon I can finally put myself at ease Check my life there at the border

I should know, but it's cold And I don't wanna be lonely Where did you go? Hurry, I'm worried Told you not to worry But maybe that's a lie Honey, what's your hurry? Won't you stay inside? Remember not to get too close to stars

Welcome to a new kind of tension All across the alien nation Where everything isn't meant to be okay Television dreams of tomorrow We're not the ones who're meant to follow For that's enough to argue Don't wanna be an American idiot Don't want a nation

Welcome to a new kind of tension All across the alienation Where everything isn't meant to be okay Television dreams of tomorrow We're not the ones who're meant to follow For that's enough to argue Don't wanna be an American idiot Don't want a nation

I don't wanna do that again I've been all over the place I watched the strawberry fields Dry up and wither away And if you ask me to stay You know that's where I will be Don't wanna do that again I'll never do that again

Welcome to a new kind of tension All across the alien nation Where everything isn't meant to be okay Television dreams of tomorrow We're not the ones who're meant to follow For that's enough to argue Don't wanna be an American idiot Don't want a nation

Feel your breath on the back of my neck. Where have I, Come to be? That's left for me. I wish that I was still there. I wanna keep on breathing. Head down running from the beast. Break neck speeding, taken down on my birth.
