Letra de
Whatsername

A música Whatsername reflete as lembranças de um antigo amor não resolvido e a aceitação da perda. É a faixa final do álbum American Idiot de 2004, uma ópera rock que conta a história de um personagem chamado Jesus of Suburbia. Whatsername é uma reflexão sobre uma personagem feminina mencionada em outras partes do álbum, mas cuja história é deixada em aberto.

Thought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to only be a dream

I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been

Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old what's his face

I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been

Remember, whatever,
It seems like forever ago,
Remember, whatever,
It seems like forever ago,
The regrets are useless,
In my mind,
She's in my head,
I must confess,
The regrets are useless,
In my mind
She's in my head,
From so long ago

Go go go go Go go
Go go go go Go go

And in the darkest night,
If my memory serves me right,
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you but not the time
