- Whatsername LyricsThought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to only be a dream
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how whatsername has been
Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old what's his face?
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how whatsername has been
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
I must confess
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
From so long ago
(Go, Go, Go, Go..)
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you, but not the time.
Then it turned out to only be a dream
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how whatsername has been
Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old what's his face?
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
I must confess
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
From so long ago
(Go, Go, Go, Go..)
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you, but not the time.

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Green Day's 'Whatsername' is a retrospective piece of art discussing a former relationship where the main character has a problem to recall his ex- lover's name and the memories associated with her, thus representing the vanishing memories of a lost bond. The text reveals nostalgia, regret, and the power of the past over one’s present emotive state and thoughts, thus the past love is depicted as being delivered through nostalgia, heartbreak, reflection, and despair. On the other hand, the song also explores the necessity of nostalgia and memory, the complexity of yearning and loss, and the finality of moving on. The lyrics hold the dual themes of nostalgia and regret that may not be very appropriate for the very young without the cues of parents. Although there are no vestiges of violence, explicit content, or language, the emotional intensity might still require parental awareness.
