Tekst piosenki:
Hey, little kid
Did you wake up late one day
And you're not so young
But you're still dumb
And you're numb to your old glory
But now it's gone
I fell in love
But it didn't catch your fall
Then I crashed into a wall
Then I fell to pieces on the floor
Now you're sick to death
Bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over
Hey X-Kid, bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over and out
Over and out again
I once was old enough to know better
Then I was too young to care
But who cares, I probably would
But Hollywood is dead and gone
You fell in love but then you just fell apart
Like a kick in the head
You’re an X-Kid and you never even got started again
Bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over
Hey X-Kid, bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over and out
Over and out again
And you were searching your soul
And you got lost and out of control
You went over the edge of joking
Died of a broken heart
Hey, little kid
Did you wake up late one day
And you're not so young
But you're still dumb
You’re an X-Kid and you never even got started again
Bombs away,
Here goes nothing the shouting's over
Hey X-Kid, bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over
Hey X-Kid, bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over
Hey X-Kid, bombs away
Here goes nothing the shouting's over
Over and out
Over and over and out

"“X-Kid” from ¡Tré! deals with the suicide of a close friend of Armstrong’s. “I don’t really want to get into it,” he says. “It’s too heavy.”
This song was written in response to the 2009 suicide of a close friend that Armstrong grew up with in Rodeo, CA. However, the song is as much about the entire "Generation X" (those born from roughly 1960-1980) as it is about this one specific tragedy. Billie Joe has repeatedly identified himself as an "Ex-Kid" in recent interviews. The narrator is able to relate to his late friend, in that they were both "Ex/X-kids." But, he was able to push through the struggles that came with growing older, while his friend was not. His friend, unfortunately, found an escape in suicide, thus the line "Here goes nothing, the shouting's over." The narrator sees facets of himself in his late friend. He feels as if, sadly, there wasn't much that could have been done to help his friend, though he wishes someone could have found a way to help him before it was too late."
O nim samym... Może o Mike'u...
Pozwólcie mi się mylić :)
Kocham tą piosenkę i Green Day <333
Ciekawego zjawiska doświadczyłam ostatnio. Siedząc w kościele, nagle chciałam zacząć śpiewać tą piosenkę zamiast ''Przybieżeli do Betlejem''. Na szczęście mój mózg ogarnął sytuację i powrócił do funkcjonowania w rzeczywistości :D
