GP1 U1587 ATTITUDE

Green day was formed in East Bay California 1989. Members are Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar, vocals) Mike Drint (bass) and the latter added drummer Tre Cool.


Prior to their big contract with Reprise, these three musicians with tattoo all over their bodies were signed to the independent punk label Lookout! Records .The band's lifeful music, unique style and underground success led a wave of interest from the major label Reprise. By 1994, having Rob Cavallo being their producer, Green Day's first album Dookie was released and the albums were selling well. It became a mainstream hit. In the following year, insomniac was released, but it was more of a sad piece.


Two more albums Nimrod (1997) and Warning (2000) were released followed by Insomniac and two live concert albums Bowling Bowling Parking Parking and Foot in Mouth were released during that period. Foot Mouth was special edited and produced by Japanese record. This shows us that the band's performance was approved internationally.


No more tours for green day until The Pop Disaster Tour (a united tour with Blink-182) in 2002. The tour lasted 3 months long starting from April visiting 5 cities in North America.

Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)
The shame
The ones who died without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!)
And bleed,
the company lost the war today
I beg to dream and differ
from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protestor has crossed the line (Hey!)
To find, the money's on the other side
Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)
There's a flag wrapped around the score of men (Hey!)
A gag,

A plastic bag on a monument
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
"The representative from California has the floor"
Zieg Heil to the president gas man
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel towers
Who criticize your government
Bang bang goes the broken glass and
Kill all the fags that don't agree
Trials by fire, setting fire
Is not a way that's meant for me
Just cause,
just cause, because we're outlaws yeah!
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday
