Exploding with raw energy and defiance, this track by Green Day dives into themes of frustration and rebellion. The lyrics suggest a feeling of being fed up with deceit and betrayal, leading to a cathartic release of anger. The chorus cleverly uses the phrase "almost only really counts in horseshoes and hand grenades" to underline that coming close isn't enough in most aspects of life – you either hit the mark or you don't. 🎯 Throughout the song, there's a palpable sense of urgency to destroy what no longer serves the protagonist, emphasizing a desire to reset or start anew amidst chaos and confrontation. It's an anthem for anyone who’s ever felt like tearing down the old to make way for their truth. 💥
Horseshoes and Handgrenades
Lyrics
I'm not fucking around
I think I'm coming out
All the deceivers and cheaters
I think we've got a bleeder right now
Want you to slap me around
Want you to knock me out
Well, you missed me, kissed me
Now you better kick me down
Maybe you're the runner-up
But the first one to lose the race
Almost only really counts in
Horseshoes and hand grenades
I'm gonna burn it all down
I'm gonna rip it out
Well, everything you employ
Was meant for me to destroy
To the ground now
So don't you fuck me around
Because I'll shoot you down
I'm gonna drink, fight, and fuck
And pushing my luck
All the time now
Maybe you're the runner-up
But the first one to lose the race
Almost only really counts in
Horseshoes and hand grenades
Demolition, self-destruction
What to annihilate
The age-old contradiction
Demolition, self-destruction
What to annihilate
The old age
I'm not fucking around
I think I'm coming out
All the deceivers and cheaters
I think we've got a bleeder right now
I'm not fucking around
G-L-O-R-I-A
