Green Day - When I Come Around
I heard you crying 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
Sleazin' my back yard so don't get so uptight
You been thinking about ditching me
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
I heard it all before
So don't knock down my door
I'm a loser and a user so I don't need no accuser
To try and slag me down because I know you're right
So go do what you like
Make sure you do it wise
You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing
Was ever there
You can't go forcing something 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
When I come around
When I come around
When I come around
“When I Come Around” is about a boy who wants to be in a casual relationship, but has become involved with a girl who wants something more serious; his insecurities and poor self-image are detailed throughout. The song peaked at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 7, 1995, and remained there for seven weeks. Though “When I Come Around” was released as part of the album Dookie in 1994, it was re-released as a single in Europe and Japan in 1995.
