- Android LyricsHey old man in woman's shoes
I wonder if he knows I think he's crazy
When he was young did he have dreams
Of wearing woman's shoes and being crazy?
It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age
Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change
Or will I grow that old?
Will I still be around?
The way I carry on I'll end up
Six feet underground
And waste away...
When the old man was in school
Did the golden rule make him go crazy
Or did he hide away from hopes
Behind a smile and smoking dope
It's crazy
It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age
Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change
Or will I grow that old?
Will I still be around?
The way I carry on I'll end up
Six feet underground
And waste away...
It seems so frightening
Time passes by like lightning
Before you know it you're struck down
I always waste my time on my chemical emotions
It keeps my head spinning around
And waste away...
It seems so frightening
Time passes by like lightning
Before you know it you're struck down
I always waste my time on my chemical emotions
It keeps my head spinning around
And waste away...
I wonder if he knows I think he's crazy
When he was young did he have dreams
Of wearing woman's shoes and being crazy?
It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age
Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change
Or will I grow that old?
Will I still be around?
The way I carry on I'll end up
Six feet underground
And waste away...
When the old man was in school
Did the golden rule make him go crazy
Or did he hide away from hopes
Behind a smile and smoking dope
It's crazy
It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age
Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change
Will I still be around?
The way I carry on I'll end up
Six feet underground
And waste away...
It seems so frightening
Time passes by like lightning
Before you know it you're struck down
I always waste my time on my chemical emotions
It keeps my head spinning around
And waste away...
It seems so frightening
Time passes by like lightning
Before you know it you're struck down
I always waste my time on my chemical emotions
It keeps my head spinning around
And waste away...

When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, Green Day's 'Android' is an account of the fears that come with the process of aging and losing mental faculties through the old man's wearing of women's shoes metaphor. The song is also an acknowledgment of the clock ticking quickly and the damaging role played by addiction to substances and feelings. Android lyrics predominantly feature angst, contemplation, despair, isolation, and nostalgia. However, the song simultaneously underlines the topics of aging and identity, fear of the future, regret and wasted time, and the passage of time. The lyrics contain allusions to drug usage ('smoking dope') and discussions on death and existential anxiety, which are more appropriate for an adult audience. Furthermore, the diction and visual images, even though not outright, are heavy and might be comprehensible only to the older children and adult categories.
