VERSE
Don't want a nation under the new media
And can you hear the sound of hysteria
Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alien nation
Where everything isn't meant to be okay
In television dreams of tomorrow, we're not the ones
who're meant to follow, for that's enough to argue.
VERSE
Well, maybe I'm the faggot
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
In television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

CHORUS
Don't wanna be an American idiot
One nation controlled by the media
Information age of hysteria
It's calling out to idiot
Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alien nation
Where everything isn't meant to be okay
We're not the ones who're meant to follow
