Green Day于二零零六年开始构思21st Century Breakdown。专辑主题主要围绕宗教、战争、爱及社会问题，而反战主题将会减少，整张专辑共有十六首歌曲更会被分为三部分"Heroes and Cons," "Charlatans & Saints"以及"Horseshoes & Hand grenades."专辑音乐风格加入一些经典的摇滚
21st Century Breakdown （21世纪大崩溃）
Wooohhhhh~ Born into Nixon, I was raised in hell A welfare child where the teamsters dwelled The last one born, the first one to run My town was blind by refinery sun
My generation is zero
I never made it as a working class hero
21st century breakdown I once was lost but never was found I think I'm losing what's left of my mind to the 20th century deadline
Wooohhhhh~
I was made of poison and Condemnation is what I understood From Mexico to the Berlin Wall Homeland security could kill us all
My generation is zero I never made it as a working class hero
21st century breakdown I once was lost but never was found I think I'm losing what's left of my mind to the 20th century deadline
PART 2 // 第2部分
We are the cries of the class of 13 born in the era of humility we are the desperate in the decline raised by the bastards of 1969!!!
My name is no one, your long lost son
Born on the 4th of July raising the bygones of heroes and cons left me for dead or alive
There is the war that's inside my head that questions the results and lies While breaking my back til I'm damn near well dead When enough ain't enough to survive
I am an agent, a worker, a pawn my debt to the status quo the scars on my hands are a means to an end it's all that I have to show
I'm taking a loan on my sanity for the redemption of my soul well I am exempt from this tragedy and the 21st century fall
Praise Liberty the freedom to obey it's a song that strangles me well, don't cross the line!
Part 3 // 第3部分
Oh, dream American dream I can't even sleep from rainstorms til dawn, Oh, bleed America bleed believe what you read from heroes and cons
这首21st Century Breakdown是美国 朋克复兴运动领军乐队GREEN Day在 2009年将发行的新唱片的同名歌曲， 曲风偏向于回归经典摇滚。 在尼克松出生，我在地狱里长大。
一个福利院的孩子，被人像牲口一样对待
最后一个畜生，第一个学会跑
我的城镇在化工厂的太阳下看不清东西（！@#￥%……&） 我们这一代一文不值
我从未想过去做一个工人阶级的英雄
21世纪在衰弱
我曾经被遗失但从未被找到
我想我正在失去那些遗留在我脑海的东西
直到20世纪的最后期限 我是由毒药和血液造就的
我懂什么叫联合
从墨西哥到柏林墙
国土安全部会把我们全都杀掉 我们是底层阶级的呼声
出生在谦逊的年代
我们是堕落中的绝望
被1969的杂种们养大 我的名字是“无名氏”，你失踪很久的儿子
畜生在7月4日
在英雄们和反派们的空地上长大
留下我活着或者死亡 问题、结果和谎言
正在我脑海中整进行着一场战争
我拼命的工作直到我该死了更好的时候
当满足不在满足生活 我是一个代理人，一个工人，一个小人物
我的债务现状
受伤的疤痕是结束的象征
这就是我要给你看的全部 我贷出我的理智
去赎回我的灵魂
是的我逃离了这场悲剧
然后21世纪崩溃了 我赞美自由
服从的自由
这是一首扼杀我的歌
当然不要越过底线 噢，梦，美国梦
我睡不着觉
从暴风雨到黎明
噢，流血，美国，流血
相信你看到的
从英雄们和反派们那里 |
