It doesn't pay to try, all the smart boys know why
It doesn't mean I didn't try, I just never know why
Feel so cold and all alone, baby, you're still not at home
And when I'm home,?big?deal,?I'm still alone
Feel?so restless, I?am, beat my head against a pole
Try to knock some sense down in my bones
And even though they don't show, the scars aren't so old
And when they go, they let you know
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try, don't try
You're just a bastard kid, and you got no name
'Cause you're living with me, we're one and the same
And even though they don't show, the scars aren't so old
And when they go, they let you know
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try, don't try
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try, don't try

Billie Joe Armstrong (nato il 17 febbraio 1972) è un cantautore, chitarrista e frontman statunitense, noto soprattutto come leader del gruppo punk rock Green Day. Nato a Oakland, in California, Armstrong ha iniziato a suonare la chitarra all'età di dieci anni, formando i primi gruppi musicali durante l'adolescenza. Nel 1987 ha fondato i Green Day con Mike Dirnt e Tré Cool, raggiungendo rapidamente successo internazionale con album come "Dookie" (1994) e "American Idiot" (2004).
