Song of the Century Lyrics

Cover art for Song of the Century lyrics by Green Day

I imagine the younger generation gathering around to hear this new "Song of the Century," with high expectations for it to take them away from "bombs and eternity." It's setting up the album and building anticipation. Like a prolouge. Or an epilouge, if you wanna go that way. An epilouge for the 20th century, because you can't have a song of a century that's just begining.
