1. MariaPosted by Ashley on May 27 2009
Maria is about a girl that doesn't like how the world is now and she ran away from the pain and anguish that was eventually catch up to her. She ran away both physically and mentally so that no one would remember her so that she can start a new life in a new place. 2/2

this song is about being faithfull to the people who means something to you, and being there to help them, even if they, or you screw up 2/7
Posted by emmie on August 27 2009
This song is about someone saying they will be there for someone. And you might fuck up sometimes, but you'll still be there again and again, no matter what. 3/7

I think this song is about the band being friends and that anytime they feel sad they'll be there for each other. 4/7
Posted by Chrisitne on June 08 2009
This song is about this guy who is telling his girlfriend that at any time she is feeling down that he will be there to talk to her. 5/7
Posted by Jen on May 28 2009
This song is about always being there for a person when they are going through tough times. 6/7
Posted by Iva on May 27 2009
Well it's pretty obvious the song is about your buddies and being there for eachother. But my friend and I remembered the myth on the title: Poprocks and coke is suppose to kill you! So at times a friendship can kill you or have you killed over money or you slept with their girl or something "fun" like that! But most of the time it's good to have friends. The right friends 7/7
Poprocks & Coke
Posted by Raquel V. on January 14 2010
Poprocks & Coke is about when you care about someone a lot but don't know how to express yourself to them.

This song is about boredom. I think Billie was waiting for a response from somebody (hence "twiddle my thumbs just for a bit / I'm sick of all the same old shit"), but one thing I'm definetly sure about is that it's about boredom, drugs and masturbation. 2/13
Posted by Ben Cl. on December 26 2009
Being alone on your own, not having anything to do, and you're just so lazy. Smoking, television, and life itself is meaningless so the boring lines with hard riffage and rock emphasizes the boring lifestyle with hard breakage of moments trying to spark something. This timeless hit is the true essence of punk rock. 3/13
Posted by Jordi on December 21 2009
Its about how B.J. does nothing,and everyone tries to encourage him to get a job but he refuses. 4/13
Posted by RG on November 25 2009
Parts of this song are definitely about smoking weed and being so stoned you have no motivation, you can't get off your seat, "smoke my inspiration"... 5/13
Posted by kimberly on November 15 2009
this song is just about being bored and having nothing to do all day just sit home watch TV and watch the phone.. not about masturbation like everyone thinks... "this song isn't about masturbation i just used it as a figure of speech of having nothing to do... i didn't mean for people to take it literally"- Billie Joe Armstrong interview of '96 6/13
Posted by Marissa on November 10 2009
This song is about a pot head wasting his life away on the couch. He does absolutely nothing, besides masturbate, watch TV, and smoke pot. It's pretty obvious. Can't go into much more detail about it, because that's all it's really about. 7/13
Posted by KaitlynSophia on August 17 2009
I think it's just about having no life in general Just sitting around on the weekends constantly 8/13
Posted by ME!!! on August 14 2009
The song is about being so bored that you're constantly masturbating. there was a myth, most likely to try and keep teenage boys from masturbating *it didn't work* that if you jacked off too much you'd go blind. hence "i'm so damn bored im going blind" and "bite my lip and close my eyes. take me away to paradise" the rest is, of course, just about being bored out of your ever-lovin mind 9/13
Posted by Christine on June 08 2009
I think this song is about somebody having a day where they are very bored and they are pissed off because they have nothing to do with their life. 10/13
Posted by James on June 06 2009
Longview, although the lyrics are literally about boredom and masturbation, it's kind of a song about growing up. It's a song about realizing how you've wasted your potential just by sitting around and doing nothing."My mother says to get a job, but she don't like the one she's got."
On that note, he's saying he needs to get a job or hobby, OR he's saying his mother is a hypocrite.
11/13
Posted by Katherine on June 02 2009
This song is about sitting on the couch all day doing nothing, being bored, smoking weed and masterbating to the point where masterbating becomes boring ("When masterbation's lost its fun you're fucking lazy") 12/13
Posted by Niamh on May 27 2009
This song is about someone sitting at home all day masturbating and being bored, with no friends, no job and no girlfriend.They're wondering what they're going to do with their life.

Longview

it's about being bored and unemployed, not wanting to get a job that you hate so instead you just sit around masturbating all day.

I think that the meaning of "Welcome to Paradise" is about their lives starting out playing music, moving out of their parents' houses, and trying to get their careers started. 2/9
Posted by David Bryce on February 13 2010
The song is based on the band's experience moving out of their parents' houses and into an abandoned house in Oakland, CA where the band members, along with several others, lived without paying rent. The house was quite broken-down but to them it became home, and this sentiment is described in the song. 3/9
Posted by Raquel V. on February 05 2010
I think to Billie Joe and Mike this song was about being famous. Also for Mike it was also probably about graduating high school. 4/9
Posted by Ben Cl. on December 26 2009
Living on the streets, working the downright hard streets, and just making it to have your music heard. The band left home and they're on their own just to play and stay alive in their town. It can be considered lowlife, but it ends up being paradise to them and just what they needed. 5/9
Posted by Amanda on September 11 2009
Billie wrote this song because he and Mike had moved out of his mother's home and were now living on their own. 6/9
Posted by whatsername on September 06 2009
This song is about someone finally leaving their home, and basically they are saying "fuck you" to their parents. I think "Paradise" is a sarcastic way of saying wherever that person is living now ('slums', 'broken homes'). 7/9
Posted by nosie on August 17 2009
This song is about the ghetto. Yet...........you belong. It is paradise. 8/9
Posted by 4thWarmasterKais on June 01 2009
This song is about moving to a hellhole you hate, but growing to love it so much that when you have a chance to escape, you don't want to. 9/9
Welcome to Paradise
Posted by Raquel V. on April 24 2010
Welcome to Paridise is about Billie Joe and Mike Dirnt being famous and how it felt for Billie to move out and have to live in some strange home that was abandoned with Mike.Welcome to Paradise for Mike was about graduating high school and finally knowing that something was actually going good for him. Over all this song is about change in Billie and Mike's ways of living going through some major changes.

i think this song means that you're a whole like totally different person when you're stoned than when you're not, and i think that they're trying to express all the failure and pressure that's being brought on to them... and how you can be messed up and that's ok as long as you're good at it!! screw what others say! and the crazier you are the more fun you have!!!! 2/10
Posted by Jaques on September 18 2009
It's about being paranoid and having panic attacks - and as a teenager who has had very bad experiences with both (So bad I passed out) I can say it captures the feeling pretty well, right down to thinking you're going insane and mixing up words in your head. And the line "Am I just paranoid, or am I just stoned?" gives a good relation to how it feels like tripping when you're seriously stoned. 3/10
Posted by mathew long on September 14 2009
i think this song about having panic attacks and not knowing how to deal with them 4/10
Posted by Words-I-Might-Have-Ate on August 11 2009
This one's about Billie's OCD and anxiety. Having both of these things myself, this song's one of my favorites. You feel paranoid about everything with OCD and during panic attacks you feel like you're spinning out of control and you don't understand a thing. "Do you have the time, to listen to me whine, about nothing and everything all at once," describes a panic attack perfectly. 5/10
Posted by Julianna on June 03 2009
This song is about a paranoid person who is overwhelmed with trying to keep their sanity in place. And no matter what they do (going to a shrink) nothing really helps 6/10

Posted by CivilRights on February 05 2010
This song is about Billie Joe's anxiety attacks (panic attacks) and how he feels that having an anxiety attack is like being stoned. You have no control over what you do, all you can do is sit back and ask yourself, whats wrong with me?

I agree with the "relationship needs a break,need to clear their head" meaning of the song, but to me the song also has another meaning. It's about telling people to just chill and not worry about you. That you're trying to just find your way in life and you're gonna do shit but to just let it happen. It's telling yourself this too. Also, and I think the video shows this, it's about how everything in life is connected. And sometimes you just gotta see where life takes you. 2/4

Billie wrote this after he and his wife had a fight, telling her that he just needed some time to "come around." 3/4
Posted by Kristen on May 28 2009
To me, this song is about 2 people who are taking a break from each other after having an argument. Billie Joe needs some time to "come around", clear his mind of what's bothering him. 4/4
When I Come Around
Posted by PsychoSatarah on May 05 2010
I think that this song is about taking a break in any kind of relationship whether it's boyfriend and girlfriend or two best friends but also despite the fight if someone leaves and you decide to look for them you know where they'll be.

To me "She" means that it's about a girl that has so many great ideas but, no one wants to listen to and to let her anger out she screams at her boyfriend or friend because he or she will let her and they know how she feels. 2/11
Posted by Vicious on February 28 2010
To me this song shows a girl who has ideas to change to world and the things around her to make things a better place. Nobody will listen to her, and tells her she's wrong for so long that she can't stand it anymore. She hates the people around her telling her how to think. 3/11
Posted by Bob Knob on January 18 2010
This song was originally a poem that he wrote about a girlfriend and actually read to her. When they broke up he turned it into a song. This is the same girl that " Good Riddance is written about. 4/11

was the song about a girl that Billie Joe knew that was having problems in her life like abusive relationships and parents and like feeling alone and angry as she had no body to turn to but Billie Joe 5/11
Posted by Mariana Tello on September 20 2009
Most people think that this song is about a girl whose life is controlled by her parents, but I think that it talks about the life that the society creates for all of us. For me, this song is about a girl that realized that she can create her own future, her own life; she doesn't have to accept what the society imposes. 6/11
Posted by MadiOfSuburbia on September 01 2009
It's about a girl who doesn't know how to live her life, because people (mostly her parents) keep telling her what to believe in. "She, she's figured out, all her doubts were someone else's point of view." And people keep telling her what to do and how her life will end up. "Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you/are you feeling like a social tool w/out a use...scream @ me, until my ears bleed/i'm taking heed just for you..." 7/11
Posted by emii on August 27 2009
This song is about someone who is tired of being ignored, trying to do something about it, but still being ignored. So she realizes she should just...break. 8/11
Posted by Seriousjin on July 18 2009
This song is about a girl who sees that her parents or perhaps someone else is/was fully controlling her. 9/11

This is your typical parent and kid relationship. Where you feel as if the world hates you and your parents aren't there to help the situation but just to make it worse. 10/11

She
Posted by Cym on April 14 2010
This song tells the story of a girl who has lived her life for and in the shadows of those around her. She has the desire to prove herself as more than what she's planned out to be, but she feels so trapped and continually frustrated that she's ready to abandon everything and start living life HER way.
