Cover art for Platypus (I Hate You) lyrics by Green Day

Billie Joe Armstrong named it platypus because he said he has always wanted to name a song platypus.

I saw an interview with him in it and he said he just felt like it, no reason

@Someguy416 I remember him saying something along the lines of the reason he named this specific song platypus was because it was the ugliest animal he could think of at the time and he always wanted to name a song platypus and since "I Hate You" was a cliche title he named it that.

@Someguy416 actually it waa aimed towards a guy that ran the 924 gilman street where they reguarly played growing up, apparently they and many other people had a strong dislike for the man that ran the place 'tim yohannon' and like they hated him. a few years ago billie posted on his Twitter saying 'Fuck u yohannon the song platapus was ment for u (commented being written same day the man died of cancer) and was immediately deleted 1 hour later. most people don't know this u gotts really do your research.
