Green Day - Nice Guys Finish Last Lyrics






Nice guys finish last
You're running out of gas
Your sympathy will get you left behind
Sometimes you're at your best, when you feel the worst
Do you feel washed up, like piss going down the drain

Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane
I'm so fucking happy I could cry
Every joke can have its truth but now the joke's on you
I never knew you're such a funny guy

Oh nice guys finish last, when you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back you might break your spine

Living on command
You're shaking lots of hands
You're kissing up and bleeding all your trust
Taking what you need
Bite the hand that feeds
You lose your memory and you got no shame

Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane
I'm so fucking happy I could cry
Every joke can have its truth but now the joke's on you
I never knew you're such a funny guy

Oh nice guys finish last, when you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back you might break your spine
Oh nice guys finish last, when you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back you might break your spine

Oh nice guys finish last, when you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back you might break your spine
Oh nice guys finish last, when you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back you might break your spine

    Still to this day !!!! 2019!!!!!

  23. J.... W....

    That's what they believe. That's exactly what they believe over there. They believe that nice people always finish last. They think that you're an idiot if you're nice all the time and not getting nothing out of it. If you're doing things to make American sociopaths look good, just fucking stop it! They don't respect you. They just want to take advantage of you and get away with as much as they can get away with at your expense.

    J.... W....

    This comment is confusing but okay. This song is sarcastic btw, making fun of the guys who are nice just to sleep with someone.

    J.... W....

    @Garfield Let me tell you something. The song is open to interpretation. That's your interpretation. I have mine. And, by the way, I'm starting to find out that you don't have to be nice to have sex (or something like it) over there.

  24. S.... C....

    His sleeve says his songs lmao awesome

  25. R.... R....

    Their last good album. I'm all about bands changing and evolving their sound, but I don't know what the hell happened to this band post 2000. The best way to piss off and offend this band is to tell them they are not punk rock. Lame.

  26. S.... W....

    “THERE IS NO ‘I’ IN ‘BAND’”

  27. d.... ....

    Un Saludito a Mi Novia la Betty ♥️♥️

  28. J.... ....

    It's 2019 and we still don't have a green day stadium

  29. n.... d....

    Ah yes, the Green Day Packers, I hope they win the Super Bowl this year!

  35. M.... ....

    There is so much truth to this song

  36. N.... S....

    That narrorator is really trying to sound like John Fecenda

  37. K.... R....

  38. B.... C....

  47. C.... ....

    Is that the dragon ball narrator? lmao

  48. M.... H....

    What year is the video?

  49. J.... ....

    The setlist on Billie's arm seems to be from a concert in Chile in 1998 https://youtu.be/_zz-Zzz8RuM maybe they played this setlist a lot though, I know around the time of Nimrod they usually played the first three songs off Nimrod then GSB a lot.

  50. A.... .....

    0:54 fucking badass moment

  62. P.... L....

    I can’t stop watching this , It’s just way too entertaining!!!!!

  63. J.... ....

    If I were the Director of this Music Video, I would make the team colors Green & Black and I would have also had Billie Joe, Mike, and Tre wear Football Uniforms. Would’ve made more sense, right?

  64. S.... A....

    How about we just be friends ??

  65. A.... L....

    omg I'm dying

  66. V.... G....

    One of the best Green Day songs

  67. K.... G....

    3:51 tre's victory dance I can't😂

  68. s.... m....

    2019 anyone?

    s.... m....

    Come on people, I know I'm not the only one.

  69. m.... c....

    temonnn

  70. Z.... ....

    True story: A few days before this video was scheduled to be filmed, the band's management put a message on the band's website inviting fans to be a part of the filming. Not long after, they had a change of heart and posted another message saying that the filming had been cancelled. The filming then went ahead at the announced location at the announced date and time. The crowd you see are those who were smart enough to ignore the fake cancellation notice.

  71. J.... M....

    Wtf happend to these guys!? They lost the soul of their craft in their new over produced shit music. Litterally bumble gum rock for kiddies and morons with horrible taste

  72. a.... k....

    GREEN DAY

  73. M.... H....

    Nice guys finish last
    You're running out of gas
    Your sympathy will get you left behind
    Sometimes you're at your best
    When you feel the worst
    You feel washed up like piss gone down the drain
    Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane
    I'm so fucking happy I could cry
    Every joke can have its truth but now the joke's on you
    I never knew you're such a funny guy
    Oh nice guys finish last
    When you are the outcast
    Don't pat yourself on the back
    You might break your spine
    Living on command
    You're shaking lots of hands
    You're kissing up and bleeding all your trust
    Taking what you need
    Bite the hand that feeds
    You lose your memory and you've got no shame
    Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane
    I'm so fucking happy I could cry
    Every joke can have its truth but now the joke's on you
    I never knew you're such a funny guy
    Oh nice guys finish last
    When you are the outcast
    Don't pat yourself on the back
    You might break your spine
    Oh nice guys finish last
    When you are the outcast
    Don't pat yourself on the back
    You might break your spine
    Oh nice guys finish last
    When you are the outcast
    Don't pat yourself on the back
    You might break your spine
    Oh nice guys finish last
    When you are the outcast
    Don't pat yourself on the back
    You might break your spine

    This song is one of many reasons why Nimrod is my all time favorite Green Day album
    Such an awesome first track

  79. V.... V....

    2:54 to 2:57
    That's an inspiration.
    Good job Mike! I'm proud :)

  80. N.... F....

    Lemme smash

  81. E.... C....

    The reason this is one of the best Green Day video's is because it's GD unabashedly taking the piss out of their fans, which kind of epitomizes the Punk Rock mentality that made GD one of the most important bands of the counter-culture movement of the late 90s.

    Punk rock is not about being nice. It's not about catering to the producers or even to the fans who are paying your bills. This song, and film clip, was GD basically bringing the "Fuck you all" mentality of Punk into the "Why can't we be friends" era of the 90s in the most cynical, skateboard-riding manner possible and it worked beautifully. It's one of the reasons why GD got so big.

  82. D.... R....
