Song Notes
This demo captures 'Homecoming' in its early stages, prior to the addition of various Cigarettes & Valentines components that Billie Joe stated he used to complete the final version of the track. Because the opening section and lyrical structure are so significantly different from the 2004 release, it is listed here as its own track.
Lyrics
[Mike Dirnt] Everybody left the studio Now I'm recording all alone Everyone left the studio but me Hey! Everyone left the studio Left me recording all alone Everyone left the studio But me, me, myself and I Me, myself and I (By myself) (Hey!) Me, myself and I (By myself) (Hey!) Me, myself and I Yeah! [Billie Joe] I was away from the studio I went to the County Jail I got myself in some trouble again And now I got work detail And Mike is taking over He's just not answering his cell Now everyone runs for cover 'Cause Mike's all by himself (Uh-uh la la la la) (Uh-uh la la la la) (Uh-uh la la la la) (Uh-uh la la la la) [Mike Dirnt] Where did everyone go? I wanna know Hey where's everyone at? What the fuck! I showed up on time Everyday I get here on time And you guys aren't here Where'd everyone go? Fuck! Your friends don't need you Nobody likes you They're all out without you Having fun Your friends left without you Nobody likes you They're all out without you Having fun No one knows what it's like Alone with Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike [Tré Cool] (Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad at me) I went to the warehouse I met up with Jimmy Boom He showed me the mastering I showed him my practice room Jason White was worrying By the reed in Danville He has a concert there That's when I heard my phone ring Hello? No, fuck you, just go, I don't care I don't, I don't know, I smashed my phone I got in my SUV Drove back to the studio Mike and Bill were wondering, wondering Where did our drummer go? [Billie Joe] Well, nobody cares, well, nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? Well, nobody cares, well, nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? Billie's filling out paperwork now At the facility on East 12th Street He's not listening to a word now He's in his own world and he's daydreaming He'd rather be doing something else now Like hanging out with Mike, Tré, Bill, Chris and Kenny His wife's on the phone with anxiety now And she's had enough, and he's had plenty Somebody get me out of here Get me the fuck right out of here Somebody get me out of here Get me the fuck right out of here (Ah) So far away, I don't wanna stay (La-la-la) (Ah) Get me outta here right now (La-la-la) (Ah) I wanna be free, is there a possibility? (La-la-la) (Ah) Get me outta here right now (La-la-la) Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike and Tré [Mike Dirnt] (Yawn) When are those guys gonna get here, man? I'm tired of waiting I'm gonna take a break I fell asleep while watching Spike TV After ten cups of coffee and you're still not here Dreamin' of a song, but somethin' went wrong And you can't tell anyone 'cause no one's here Left me here alone And I shoulda stayed home After ten cups of coffee, I'm thinkin' [Mike Dirnt & Billie Joe] (Where'd you go?) Nobody likes you, everyone left you (Where'd you go?) They're all out without you, havin' fun (Where'd you go?) Everyone left you, nobody likes you (Where'd you go?) They're all out without you, havin' fun (Where'd you go?) [Tré Cool] Jeez, ah I got a rock and roll band, I got a rock and roll life I got a rock and roll girlfriend and another ex-wife I got a rock and roll house, I got a rock and roll car I play the shit out the drums and I can play the guitar I got a kid in New York, I got a kid in the Bay I haven't drank or smoked nothin' in over twenty-two days So get off my case Off of my case Off of my case [Billie Joe & Mike Dirnt] Hey! [Billie Joe] Here they come, marching down the street (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Like a desperation murmur of a heartbeat (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Comin' back from the edge of town Underneath their feet The time has come and it's goin' nowhere (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Nobody ever said that life was fair now (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear In the summer heat [Billie Joe & Mike Dirnt] (Me Myself and I) The world is spinning 'round (Me Myself and I) And 'round and in and out again (Me Myself and I) We're not the only ones Who fear breakin' down So send my love a letterbomb And visit me in Hell We're the ones going Home, we're comin' home again Home, we're comin' home again [Billie Joe] I started fucking running as soon as my feet touched ground We're back in the barrio, and to you and me, that's Jingletown That's [Billie Joe, Mike Dirnt & Tré Cool] Home, we're coming home again Home, we're coming home again Home, we're coming home again Home, we're coming home again Home, we're coming home again Home, we're coming home again Home, oh, we're coming home again Home, we're coming home again (No, fuck you, just go, I don't care I don't, I don't know, I smashed my phone Just go, I don't care, I don't, I don't know, I smashed my phone) [Billie Joe & Mike Dirnt] Nobody likes you, everyone left you They're all out without you having fun
