I had a lot of trouble covering this song. There were a few lyrics that I really didn't care for and I debated whether I should change them or just give up on covering the song together.
I have been known to be criticized in the past for changing, omitting and even adding lyrics when covering songs. I generally do not tolerate censorship for the sole purpose of “protecting” the eyes and ears of children or overly sensitive people; However, there are certain words that I believe should never be used because their use is intended to be derogatory.
This particular song contained some problematic sentiments that I decided to change. I did my best to keep the storyline intact while making sure everything rhymed. I'm sure many Green Day fans won't agree with what I did, but I believe the purpose of art is to create a conversation – and I have a feeling that many people will have something to say about it!
