Corvette Summer
Song Meaning
Billie Joe Armstrong (Guitar World, March 2024, p.56): "You definitely need to have some kind of escape from everything, whether it's going to your favorite record store, hanging out with friends in person or just doing something where you're not sitting in front of a screen the entire time. For me, I still listen to punk rock every day. I'm always looking for cool new bands, or maybe I'll go down the rabbit hole of trying to find power-pop stuff that you can't find anywhere except for on Discogs or specialty record stores. I do still have that escapism that I've had ever since I was 12 years old. So something like ‘Corvette Summer’ is saying, ‘I just wanna feel good for a minute.’ Or, you know, two-and-a-half minutes."

Lyrics
Get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll (here we go now)
Get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Don't want no money
Don't want no fame
All I want is my records making my pain go away
Maybe I'm stupid, lazy and stray
Maybe I've had enough of this shit brigade
get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Taking a beating
Kicked in the head
Hit me with power chords
Before you leave me dead
Living in chaos
Sick and I'm bored
Take me to urgent care
Or the record store
get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll (here we go now)
Get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Don't want no money
Don't want no fame
All I want is my records making my pain go away
Maybe I'm stupid, lazy and stray
Maybe I've had enough of this shit brigade
get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Taking a beating
Kicked in the head
Hit me with power chords
Before you leave me dead
Living in chaos
Sick and I'm bored
Take me to urgent care
Or the record store
get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
Get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Fuck it up on my rock 'n' roll
(Here we go now) get around, I can get around
Drop a bomb on my rock 'n' roll
