It's the end of the day, I've got my chinese chicken salad, Mike's a happy boy.

It's more verbatim to the storyline of the record, but within it, it shows more of what we [Green Day] would see or think about than just a fantasy video,

At the end of the day, we speak for ourselves, but I think a lot of people on this planet and especially in the United States can relate to us, ... We live in the United States too and we watch the news and we have the same questions and the same fears and angers and everything else that everyone else has. The difference is, I guess, we have each other to talk about it with and kind of sort our opinions out on paper. And we also have a creative forum in which to voice our opinions and our frustrations and happiness and everything. Not everybody has that forum.

Opinons are like assholes, Everybody's got one!

I have a daughter and she's the greatest thing that ever happened to me. She gives me a good excuse to watch cartoons.
