I wonder if he knows i think he's crazy
When he was young did he have dreams of wearing woman's shoes
And being crazy
I grow to be that age
Will i be walking down the street
Begging for your spare change
Will i still be around?
The way i carry on i'll end up six feet underground
And waste away...
Did the golden rule make him go crazy
Or did he hide away from hopes
Behind a smile and smoking dope
It's crazy
Time passes by like lightning
Before you know it your struck down
I always waste my time on
My chemical emotions
It keeps my head spinning around
What is Wit hThe Parrt With Like Toilets Flushing And That Wierd Voice Thing?
@Soldername1 this song was made when green day was the pothead teenagers who were immature and did alot of acid, acid is known for making voices seem slow and the toilets just for the lolz

Soldiername, I can't tell you what that is; just the opposite, I myself was wondering. It's like a toilet flushing and a voice saying "Somebody else can do it ha ha ha ha". The same sort of thing is in the middle of Private Ale. I don't know what it means.
As for the song itself, the "golden rule" line may be one of the most poetic inventions in modern songwriting history. These guys are amazing.
I'ts about being afraid, that you're not gonna find your place in the world. One of the best songs on Kerplunk, I think. I can relate to it very much.
Time does definately pass by like lightning...:(
its a good green day classic and a great guitar intro and bass solo
good green day song
It seems so frightening Time passes by like lightning - the breakdownpart is so uncredible, the whole song is, give it a shot =)
the breakdownpart is so incredible... "and it seems so frightening"
Pretty obvious what this one is about, it's about growing up, and being a little scared.
i really used to really like this song, i still do, just not as much, it was more significant to me at that time. i think its a really good song though, great lyrics. amazing lyrics.
X peace X
