LYRICS

I wanna be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I wanna be the minority

I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog, thereof which I stand alone
A face in the crowd unsung against the mold
Without a doubt, singled out, the only way I know

'Cause I wanna be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I wanna be the minority

Stepped out of the line
Like a sheep runs from the herd
Marchin' out of time
To my own beat now
The only way I know

One light, one mind flashin' in the dark
Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
"For cryin' out loud," she screamed unto me
A free-for-all, fuck 'em all, you are your own sight

'Cause I wanna be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I wanna be the minority (Hey)

One light, one mind flashin' in the dark
Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
"For cryin' out loud," she screamed unto me
A free-for-all, fuck 'em all, you are your own sight

'Cause I wanna be the minority
I don't need your authority
Down with the moral majority
'Cause I wanna be the minority

(I wanna be) The minority
(I wanna be) The minority
(I wanna be) The minority
(I wanna be) The minority

Shoutout to my mom for making me return the CD I bought because of the swearing in this song. We bought and returned it twice at Walmart because they supposedly sold censored versions. She eventually gave up and I fell in love with this band. Hey ohhh!

The energy Green Day had during American idiot tour and 21st century tour was insane.. they still are great live now but it’s not the same granted they are much older now
