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
Don't get lonely now
Dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment
Skeazin' 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
When I come around
Dookie

how in gods name have i not commented on this song? hm. a lot of people think this is green day's best song. i don't, however i do agree that it's one of their best songs and that it's an amazing song in its own right. its so simple but it brings out so much emotion in true greenday fashion. brilliant.

My 1st comment-woohoo!!!
As u can probably tell from my username I'm a huge green day fan. I got my dookie album from my mum and ive been listening to it for nine years-almost every day and I never tire of it and this has been one of my favourite songs since then-it just has a great feel and if it can perk me up when ive got a hangover it must be good!

I think it's a toss-up for me with this song and Hitchin A Ride as my favorite by them. It's just so hard not to like this song. You can say what you want about them "selling out" now, but to me, they will always be remembered for songs like this one.
