Verse 1
remeber when you got your first drum set
and how we used to practice in the basement
when i was singing like billy joe
(don't wanna be an american idiot)
summer time came the concert
mcdonalds wouldn't let me book it off work
so I called in sick the night of the show
Refrain
the crowd was screaming encore
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 2
soon enough we went
and got a tour bus
all the girls were
screaming just to fucking touch us
they all wanted to take us home
now everywhere we look
we see our faces
but we know that well
never let that change us
until oprah lets us play on her show
(play on play on her show)
(Repeat Refrain)

yo only get one shot (one shot!)
gotta take that chance
and make it last
were never gonna give it up
were never gonna stop
its the payoff
Bridge
we will rock you

with the crowd tonight
we will rock you
everybody singing
every word from every line
we will rock you (rock you)
we just (we just) got to

weve ever dreamed of
Verse 3
remeber getting drunk
around the campfire
writing stupid songs about
becoming rockstars
we never ever thought
it would go this far
