Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm so phresh, man (EarDrummers)
Man, y'all scared to do it how I do it
[Chorus]
I'm in the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
In the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
[PostChorus]
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
So get like me
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
So get like me
[Verse 1]
I be in the club standing on the couch
In them Wolf Grey's like it's my house (I'm on)
Drinking out the bottle, I got no respect
Looking like a model, who just got a check
I back it up, 'cause I don't give a fuck
If you're a lame, that's a shame you can't hang with us
I'm MC Hammer fly, fresh, you can't touch, no
J's so fly, I should work at Flight Club
[PreChorus]
Put on my J's and dance the whole night away
I'm naughty by nature like I'm Hip-Hop Hooray
My hands in the sky, I wave ‘em from side to side
My feet on the floor, I'm 'bout to turn up now
[Chorus]
I'm in the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
In the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
[PostChorus]
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
So get like me
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
So get like me
[Verse 2]
I be rockin' J's or I be rockin' Taylors
I got lots of flavors, my kick game is major
More kicks than the players, call me up I'm scorin'
Hit it like a free throw, tongue out like I'm Jordan
Smiley, Miley, come swing the thing right by me
Got a joint if you wanna get stoned, got choppers if they wanna try me
Pro athlete, I'm not no wannabe
Waitress asked how many bottles? I said 23
[PreChorus]
Put on my J's and dance the whole night away
I'm naughty by nature like I'm Hip-Hop Hooray
My hands in the sky, I wave ‘em from side to side
My feet on the floor, I'm 'bout to turn up now
[Chorus]
I'm in the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
In the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
[PostChorus]
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
So get like me
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
So get like me
[Verse 3]
I stay showin' out, my kick game is a beast
I got thirty pairs of J's that ain't never been released
Flu game 12's, Space Jam 11's
All the hype beast sick, they gon' need a paramedic
Turn up, turn up, turn up, I get trippy, I stay live
All this purple in my cup, match them grape 5's
I'm so high, I got three bitches that go bi
I'm so fly, I'm gettin' head like a blow dryer
[PreChorus]
Put on my J's and dance the whole night away
I'm naughty by nature like I'm Hip-Hop Hooray
With my hands in the sky, I wave ‘em from side to side
My feet on the floor, I'm 'bout to turn up now
[Chorus]
I'm in the club high on purp with some shades on
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
In the club high on purp with some shades on (Hey!)
Tatted up, mini skirt with my J's on
[PostChorus]
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (You know it)
So get like me
J's on my feet (You know it)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
J's on my feet (We trippy)
So get like me
[Instrumental]
Thank you so much, LA, thank you
Thank you so much
How's everybody doing tonight? Thank you for being here
Thank you to anybody who's really here to see Green Day and showed up a little bit early to see what the fuck I'm doing
Like you, I have no idea
But, uh, if you don't know me, if you don't know my music
Hey, I like your shirt
I'll tell you that one thing you probably do know
Is I think people when they think about me they think of someone who even though that's been a million different things likes to be honest about where I am and every moment of my life that over the last fifteen-plus years has been a lot of different things
A lot of different identities
And all of those identities that I was trying on and seeing if they fit me, like the skin that I'm in right now, you all stood beside me and grew with me and watched me evolve
And I hope that we get to do that over and over and over again
For the rest of my life
One thing that I do now is that even though it scares the shit out of me sometimes, this is what I wanna do for the rest of my life
And over the last two years having that disconnection
And not being able to experience this moment that we're all having right now
Something that used to feel just like breathing
Something that felt like it would happen whether I wanted to or not
I would just somehow end up in these rooms full of twenty thousand people and they would be singin' along to my songs and it was just something that happened
And when that came to a screeching halt just like everybody's else's life over the last two years, this is feeling new to me again
Which is fucking exciting, but is also terrifying
Something that should feel so natural just doesn't anymore
And I just wanted to be honest about standing up here right now, it doesn't feel the same as if you would've come to see me three or four years ago
I'm just finding my feet up on this platform again and I know that all of us are going through that same experience
We're just trying to integrate back into reality
A reality that was moving so fast, so naturally
And now something that should just feel like breathing is suddenly difficult and anxiety-inducing and scary
And I just want you to know that even though I'm up here in front of all of you, I'm just as scared of—, as everybody else
About where the world is going, what the future holds
But the good news is is we're not alone
Even when we're disconnect, we, we are not alone, we're all in this together
And so I just want to be honest about where I'm at
And when I look out here and I see some Green Day t-shirts sprinkled in some Miley shirts
Maybe boyfriends, it's like, "Yeah, I fuck with Green Day," I know how—, and I like the Miley socks
And I see these shirts all around this arena from all different eras, I can tell how long you all have been with me
I saw a shirt down here, I think I'm fucking thirteen years old on your shirt, I'm twenty-two years old on your shirt
That's the mullet era
So I, I can see, hey!
"Miley made me gay"
I heard that's not a good thing, but I think it is
Yeah, a lot of dudes wear that
Um, yeah, some into men with pussies
Are you gonna hold that up for the Green Day show? You should, it's awesome
Uh, so I just want to be honest about where I'm at and I wanna thank you guys for your loyalty over the years and I wanna thank you again for coming to my show tonight
And this song
I feel much better now that I just was honest and I told you that I'm fucking scared up here
This song is called "Never Be Me"
This song is off my newest record called Plastic Hearts
And I've never sang this song before live, so I look forward to doing it for y'all
