Brat

Green Day

Mom and Dad don't look so hot these days

They're getting over the hill

Death is closing in and catching up

As far as I can tell

Got a plan of action and cold blood

And it smells of defiance

I'll just wait for Mom and Dad to die

And got my inheritance

Now I want more

'Cause I'm getting bored

And I'm going nowhere fast

I was once filled with doubt

Now it's all figured out

Nothing good can last

Crows feet and rot are setting in

And time is running out

My parent's income interest rate

Is gaining higher clout

I'm a snot nosed slob

Without a job

And I know I darn well should

Mom and Dad don't look so hot these days

But my future's looking good

Now I want more

'Cause I'm getting bored

And I'm going nowhere fast

I was once filled with doubt

Now it's all figured out

Nothing good can last

Now I want more

'Cause I'm getting bored

And I'm going nowhere fast

I was once filled with doubt

Now it's all figured out

Nothing good can last
