Give Me Novacaine Lyrics

Take away the sensation inside
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
It's like a throbbing toothache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore

Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation's overwhelming
Give me a long kiss good...

    American Idiot album is a rock opera, means that the whole album has a story in it. So the plot Give Me Novacaine is describing the insecurity and fear that Jesus of Suburbia is experiencing when he enters his new life. He's tired of being weak, so he fully surrenders to his alter ego, St. Jimmy. Now he's doing what Jimmy tells him to.

    This song is about someone with an addiction and how they use drugs to help them forget about their problems and feel numb, hence the "novacaine" .
