GREEN DAY

- When I Come Around Lyrics

Oh I heard you cryin' loud
All the way across town
You've been searching for that someone
And it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself

Well don't get lonely now
And dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Sleazing my backyard so don't get so uptight
You've been thinking about ditching me

No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around

Oh I heard it all before
So don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and the user
So I don't need no accuser
To try and slag me down because I know you're right

So it go, do what you like
Make sure you do it wise
You may find out that yourself doubt
Means nothing was ever there
You can't come forcing somethin' if it's just not right

No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around

No time to search the world around
'Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around

Oh, when I come around
Oh, when I come around
When I come around
