Green Day – The American Dream Is Killing Me (Official Music Video)
Saviors is an invitation into Green Day’s brain, their collective spirit as a band, and an understanding of friendship, culture and legacy of the last 30 plus years.
It’s raw and emotional. Funny and disturbing. It’s a laugh at the pain, weep in the happiness kind of record.
Honesty and vulnerability.
What is Saviors about, you ask?
Power pop, punk, rock, indie triumph. disease, war, inequality, influencers, yoga retreats, alt right, dating apps, masks, MENTAL HEALTH, climate change, oligarchs, social media division, free weed, fentanyl, fragility,,..
What would Andy Warhol do?
What would John Waters do?
What would Quentin Tarantino do?
What would GREEN DAY do?

LYRICS
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
When it’s all double talk of conspiracy
The American dream is killing me
Send out an SOS
It’s getting serious
Bulldoze your family home
Now it’s a condo
We are not home
Are we not home
God damn I am so grateful
Forever faithful to
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
People on the street
Unemployed and obsolete
Did you ever learn to read the ransom note
Don’t want no huddled masses
TikTok and taxes
Under the overpass
Sleeping in broken glass
We are not well
Are we not well
Cracked up into the wild
We’re pedophiles for
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
When it’s all double talk of insanity
The American dream is killing me
From sea to shining sea
Whitewashed upon the beach
My country under siege
On private property
We are not home
Are we not home
Kiss me I’m dead inside
Who needs suicide
When the American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
When it’s all double talk of insanity
The American dream is killing me

Sounds bada$$!!!!
One of the first commenters here
O Brasil está esperando ansiosamente por vocês!
We love Green Day!❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Listening to them since 2004. Every new release I’m hyped and excited the same way I was 20 years ago. They keep their sound and their energy like true legends. BEST BAND EVER!!!!
Heck yeah brother. I’ve been listening since 1994, and feel the same way as you! Not only do they never age or slow down, I honestly think they keep getting better.
I didn’t know I needed Billie, Mike, and Tre as zombies, but I’m glad they showed me I did need them. Can’t wait for their new album!!!
oshawott
Green Day never disappoints me. Can’t wait for the album to come out.
fr? this song was dull imo. good lyrics but crap music
@SuperSaiyanJohnCenaTrappedInADeathStarPokeball personal opinion
let people like the music they like. if you didnt enjoy it, thats up to you
dont go raining on everyone elses parade
@Block i dont think they criticized them for liking it
@TakenUsername ooohhh
I didnt see the “fr?”
still i dont think its cool to be going telling someone the song they liked is dull
@Block I mean they gave the reasoning to why they didn’t like it but fair enough
Went to preschool listening to poprocks and coke along with all the other songs in International Superhits! Now I’m in college and Green Day is still making new music. Could never be more grateful to have grown up with any other band.
This song is everything I would want from a new Green Day song and I’m so ready for this album
this man’s voice doesnt get old.. More power to Green day 🥵
Yea his vocals can never blow out like 80’s singers or angst 00’s; he’ll probably have that range in his 70’s.
Uhmm, it’s tuned to hell.
@Muper San he’s still got his voice though. Listen to some of the recent live shows. He still sounds 20.
his voice is green like electric car🥴
@Lowie some days better than others, but I think I’d agree that compared to some of his contemporaries, he’s sounding pretty good.
Thank you green day for still carrying music 🙌
Green Day has always stood up for the people. So happy they see what’s going on and also push the need for change. ❤
