  Do you know your enemy?

  I heard Green Day’s first single off their new CD, 21st Century Breakdown, for the first time on Lazer 99.3 yesterday afternoon on the way home from work. I like it. I was a big fan of American Idiot, and wasn’t sure they’d be consistent with their quality on their future albums, but I must say, this rocks. Usually it takes a few listens for news songs to grow on me, but I liked this one right away. Lyrics follow the video:

  Green Day – New Music – More Music Videos

  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  Violence is an enemy
  Against the enemy
  Violence is an energy
  Bringing on the fury
  The choir infantry
  Revolt against the honor to obey
  Overthrow the effigy
  The vast majority
  Burning down the foreman of control
  Silence is the enemy
  Against your urgency
  So rally up the demons of your soul
  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  The insurgency will rise
  When the bloods been sacrificed
  Don’t be blinded by the lies
  In your eyes
  Violence is an energy
  From here to eternity
  Violence is an energy
  Silence is the enemy
  So gimme gimme revolution
  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  Do you know the enemy?
  Do you know your enemy?
  Well, gotta know the enemy
  Overthrow the effigy
  The vast majority
  Burning down the foreman of control
  Silence is the enemy
  Against your urgency
  So rally up the demons of your soul
