Green Day - Jesus of Suburbia (Broadway) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I. Jesus of Suburbia

[JOHNNY]
I'm the son of rage and love
The Jesus of Suburbia
From the bible of "none of the above"
On a steady diet of
Soda pop and Ritalin
No one ever died for my sins in hell
As far as I can tell
At least the ones I got away with
But there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make-believe
That don't believe in me

[WILL]
Get my television fix

[JOHNNY]
Sitting on my crucifix

[WILL]
The living room in my private womb

[JOHNNY]
While the moms and Brads are away

[WILL]
To fall in love

[JOHNNY]
And fall in debt
To alcohol

[WILL]
And cigarettes

[JOHNNY]
And Mary Jane

[WILL]
To keep me insane

[JOHNNY]
Doing someone else's cocaine

[BOTH]
And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make-believe
That don't believe in me


II. City of the Damned

[TUNNY]
At the centre of the earth
In the parking lot
Of the 7-11 where I was taught
The motto was just a lie
It says: "Home is Where Your Heart Is"
But what a shame
Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same
It's beating out of time

[TUNNY, JOHNNY and WILL]
City of the dead

[TUNNY]
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere

[TUNNY, JOHNNY and WILL]
City of the damned

[TUNNY]
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care

I read the graffiti in the bathroom stall

[JOHNNY]
Like the holy scriptures in a shopping mall

[JOHNNY and TUNNY]
And so it seemed to confess

[WILL]
It didn't say much, but it only confirmed

[TUNNY]
That the centre of the earth
Is the end of the world

[TUNNY, JOHNNY and WILL]
And I could really care less

City of the dead

[TUNNY]
At the end of another lost highway
Signs misleading to nowhere

[TUNNY, JOHNNY and WILL]
City of the damned

TUNNY:
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care


III. I Don't Care

[JOHNNY]
I don't care if you don't-

[WILL]
I don't care if you don't-

[TUNNY]
I don't care if you don't care

[ALL]
I don't care if you don't-
I don't care if you don't-
I don't care if you don't care [x3]
And I don't Care!

[JOHNNY]
Everyone's so-
Everyone's SO-
Everyone's so-
Everyone's so-

Everyone is so full of shit
Born and raised by hypocrites

[WILL]
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle to the grave

[TUNNY]
We are the kids of war and peace
From Anaheim to the Middle East

[TUNNY and WILL]
We are the stories and disciples of...

[ALL]
The Jesus of Suburbia!

Land of make-believe
And it don't believe in me
Land of make-believe and I don't believe

[JOHNNY, WILL, and TUNNY]
And I don't care! (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)
I don't care (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)
I don't care (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)
I don't care (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)
I don't care (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)
I don't care


IV. Dearly Beloved

[HEATHER]
Dearly beloved, are you listening?
I can't remember a word that you were saying
Are we demented or am I disturbed?
The space that's in between insane and insecure

Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed?
Nobody's perfect and I stand accused
For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse


V. Tales of Another Broken Home

[JOHNNY]
To live and not to breathe

[JOHNNY, TUNNY, and WILL]
Is to die in tragedy

[JOHNNY]
To run, to run away

[JOHNNY, TUNNY, and WILL]
To find what you believe
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fucking lies

[JOHNNY]
I lost my faith to this

[JOHNNY, TUNNY, and WILL]
This town that don't exist

[JOHNNY]
So I run
I run away

[JOHNNY, TUNNY and WILL]
To find what I believe
And I leave behind
This hurricane of fucking lies
And I walked this line
A million and one fucking times
But not this time!

[HEATHER]
I don't feel any shame
I won't apologize!
When there ain't nowhere you can go

[COMPANY]
Running away from pain
When you've been victimized
Tales from another broken...

[ALL]
Home!

[WILL]
You're leaving?
You're leaving!
Are you leaving home?
